The company aims to connect local businesses, consumers, and communities through its app, Cinch Mobile Wallet. Cinch Mobile Wallet encourages consumers to shop local by allowing them to save money and help their community at the same time. When consumers shop with Cinch, local businesses benefit from increased sales and loyalty.

In addition, Cinch gives back a portion of all local proceeds to local causes, ensuring that money spent with Cinch directly benefits the users community.
