About

Smelt is an idea I built around a simple problem: people end up with small amounts of money stuck across gift cards they probably will not use again. The prototype shows how someone could convert one card or combine several, see the quote upfront, and choose what they want to do with the value. It includes separate desktop and phone demos, clear Original Value vs. Smelt Value math, destination options, and a full receipt.The sale includes smelt.website, the Smelt name and logo files, the live prototype, a deployable web build, an earlier full-source mobile prototype, the quote logic, a unit-economics workbook, partner and risk research, a transfer checklist, and a detailed guide explaining what the next owner should do to give the idea its best chance of succeeding.This is still a pre-revenue concept, not a working financial service. It does not accept real card numbers, bank information, or money, and there are no financial partners or regulatory approvals in place. Three completed-demo feedback responses were recorded, but I cannot verify them as outside users. A buyer would still need to secure the right gift-card, payout, compliance, and fraud partners before handling real value.
