Basamba (http://www.basamba.com) shows you the intelligent way to shop in this e-Age.

Let's say you want to purchase a computer. If you decided to go out to the market to buy one you would likely end up spending the whole day surveying and figuring out costs. You will possibly miss out on a discount too if you don't have time. With Basamba.com, it's a whole new experience. Here is how:

You create a free account with Basamba.com and immediately get a 1,000 reward points credited to your account. Now, you proceed to its computer and electronic section. There is not only a full range of computer systems listed before you but sections come up for allied products like power protectors, CD discs, DVDs and digital cameras.

Basamba lets you compare the prices and product features across a platform connecting different merchants offering computer items from across the world. You can see more than 60,000 individual items just sitting at home in far less time than if you went out shopping. All you have to do is choose which computer you want to buy. As you surf through the various choices of product, you are also given a list of options for free gifts, clearance sale items, upgradations etc. You can simultaneously check for accessories and bundle offers.


The range of computers and accessories that Basamba displayed before you would have taken up thousands of square feet of physical space in a regular shopping place and you would have spent more than a day just comparing the various offers. With Basamba, it would not take you more than a couple of hours to make an efficient search and well analyzed choice of purchase.

Now comes the fun part. For example, you settle for a computer worth $500. Once you pay for it, the merchant site gives Basamba a commission of 20% on this price. This amounts to $100. The Basamba server tags your payment with your unique member identity. The partner site sends this identity code to Basamba for confirmation and in 30 days you get half of the $100 credited to your account by Basamba! It is important that you save the invoice and proof of purchase.

Some merchant sites may also give you a free gift. A related survey may pop up which will help you earn over and above this $100 credit too. Each dollar is equal to a 100 reward points.


However, the cost of shipping, handling and taxes are not included in this price upon which the commission is calculated.
So, in effect, you have paid the same while buying a computer at Basamba like you would have paid in the market. But what you would not have done during your regular shopping trip is that you have earned reward points and free gifts apart from having had a huge range to choose your computer from.

Once you have earned 5,000 points in your account, you need to inform Basamba via the 'contact' tab on the main site. You can of course wait to accumulate more points. But the first payout is at the 5,000-point threshold. You have the option to get a gift card that serves as a credit card or choose many other gifts valuing according to your points.

No wonder, Basamba is the hottest shopping mall these days combining range, choice, knowledge and rewards.
