Jagat, the social app that has taken the world by storm, launched its “Coin Hunt” feature in the Philippines. Building on its strong foundation of tens of thousands of avid users in the Philippines and its success in Japan, Taiwan, Vietnam, Indonesia, Spain, France, and Singapore, Jagat is redefining social interaction by encouraging users to connect, explore, and engage with their communities in the real world.
Before the introduction of “Coin Hunt,” Jagat had already captured the hearts of Filipino users with its unique approach to social connection. This past week, the app organically climbed to the top of the Play Store and App Store rankings in the Philippines, surpassing established giants like Facebook, TikTok, and WhatsApp.
Unlike traditional social media platforms, Jagat prioritizes meaningful connections and experiences over passive content consumption. “Our vision has always been to leverage technology to bring people together and foster a sense of community,” says Barry Beagen, co-founder of Jagat. “With ‘Coin Hunt,’ we’re taking this vision a step further by motivating users to step outside, discover new places, and create shared experiences.”
“Coin Hunt” Ignites Enthusiasm Across the Philippines
The launch of “Coin Hunt” in the Philippines has been met with tremendous enthusiasm. Thousands of users have already joined the interactive treasure hunt, exploring their cities and uncovering hidden surprises. The event features physical and virtual coin drops in major cities like Manila, Cebu, and Davao, with plans to expand to more locations nationwide.
Participants have praised “Coin Hunt” for its unique ability to foster social connections and promote an active lifestyle. “Jagat allowed me to connect with friends in a whole new way,” shared one participant. “We had so much fun exploring the city together and discovering hidden gems we never knew existed.”
Jagat’s Commitment to Community and Collaboration
Jagat is committed to collaborating with local stakeholders in the Philippines to maximize the positive impact of “Coin Hunt” and other features. The company is actively seeking partnerships with businesses, tourism boards, and government agencies to promote local tourism, support small businesses, and enhance the urban environment.
“We believe that Jagat can be a catalyst for positive change in the Philippines,” says Beagen. “By working together with local partners, we can leverage our platform to create more vibrant, connected, and engaging communities.”
Launched in Indonesia in November 2022, Jagat continues to evolve and adapt to local markets, demonstrating its commitment to providing a positive and engaging experience for users around the globe. Jagat’s popularity has transcended borders, with over 20 million users worldwide embracing its unique approach to social connection. The app has become a social app of choice in diverse countries, including Japan, Taiwan, Vietnam, and Spain, surpassing established giants like Facebook, TikTok, and WhatsApp in Play Store rankings.
Jagat is available for download in App Store and Playstore.
