β We have seen a great demand from our users who want to be able to give away shares as a gift. Itβs nice to see how the behavior in our app is not only about trying to make good investments for your own wallet, but also to give away to loved ones, says Olga Stern, CTO at Tangy Market.
To give music as a gift is nothing new. Don’t we all remember the feeling of unwrapping a flat and square package with the first CD or the exact song order on the mix tape you gave to your teenage love?
The format of the music gift has evolved over the years of digital development, but the value of gifting music is eternal. Now you can give a gift of music that can also grow in value, namely in the form of an investment portfolio.
β This is a personal gift that you can customize by putting together an investment portfolio of different songs or choose from a ready-made package with a selection of 114 Swedish classics, says Linda Portnoff, founder and CEO, Tangy Market.
Just in time for the holidays, Tangy Market is launching a new giveaway feature which means you can gift an investment in music to someone you like in the form of shares of music royalties. Music is a valuable asset, emotionally but also financially, and in 2021 music investors on Tangy Market earned an average return of 13%.
