BASIC

Tricider is a free brainstorming tool to make easy decisions with your friends or work mates.

It offers a platform on which people can brainstorm together and find solutions even if they're scattered around the world.

Everyone can propose ideas either anonymously or with his/her name. So nobody has to be inhibited and creative and versatile ideas will be collected.

These are all possible questions, and they are far from being the only ones.

How can I make a decision?

Just enter your question. Then invite your friends and let them collect ideas and arguments.

Pose an open question and collect new ideas.

Schedule an event and let the participants vote for your suggestions.

Or just propose yes and no.

Finally everyone votes for the best solution and the result is visible. Brainstorming easy and fast.

How do I invite participants to join the decision?

Inside the Admin box you'll find the link to invite participants. Send it via mail, post it on Facebook or tweet it.

Who can see my tricision? Are they public?

If you don´t invite anyone, no one but you can see the tricision. You can send around the link or post it to Facebook or Twitter etc. Then people can find your question.

Tricisions with rewards

What are rewarded tricisions?

Rewarded tricisions are normal tricider questions, with the only difference that the participants can win something. You can advertise a reward for each question. This increases the motivation to participate or to invite friends to your tricision.

How do the reward for the most voted idea and the drawing among voters work?

These awards are intended to make your tricision attractive for all participants. It rewards good ideas as well as participating in the voting process. This is a motivation to come up with creative ideas and to invite friends to vote. This option is ideal if you want to make sure everyone in a closed group is voting or if you want to promote your tricision so that it spreads around in social networks. Both prizes are given by the tricider system automatically at the end of voting. One idea that has been gathered the most votes by all participants is chosen. Therefore, in such a tricision it is not possible to vote twice for the same idea. The second prize will be drawn from all who have at least cast one vote. For which idea the vote was given or how many votes were given, is not important.

How do the special jury rewards work?

The prices of the jury are there to reward additional ideas, which were very good, but may not have received the most votes. The jury - in this case the creator of the tricision - determines before the start, how many special prizes he wants to give. When the entry period has ended and the question is completed, he will select the ideas that he wants the reward. He has 10 days to do so. Shouldn’t he choose any ideas, the system automatically selects the ideas. Then the number of votes for each idea is used as criterion. Shouldn´t there be enough ideas to give out all rewards, there will be a drawing among all participants for the remaining prizes.

How can I participate and how do I recieve a reward?

To participate you just have an idea or make a voice at a premium issue and leave a contact address. This is done through Facebook Connect, Google login or specifying user names, email address and password. These data are not passed to the organizers of the question, or third parties. We need them to contact you and can ensure that no one tampered with the poll. The username needs to be a real name, however you can use a pseudonym when giving an input. You can change it at any time. It will be on display at various locations. Your email address and other data will never be seen. Participation is absolutely free and no obligation to purchase or similar. The terms and conditions are for each extra bonus question again stated for future reference. Should have informed you won, you will by e-mail.

How can I create a rewarded tricision and how do I pay?

You can turn any tricision into a rewarded tricision. In administration box you find a link to reward the participants. There, you can make the settings. You can pay by credit card, debit card or PayPal. The payment is handled through PayPal, but you do not need a PayPal account. The one making the payment is considered the organizer of the rewarded tricision. His name is mentioned on the site of the rewarded tricision.
