sheerME is Inspiring Personal Wellbeing
sheerME’s mission is to improve personal wellbeing by inspiring people’s self-care, making it easy to find, book, and pay for the best wellness, beauty, and fitness services around them. Powered by a Wallet & cashback Ecosystem, an Employee Benefits Subscription, and Sponsors Top-ups.
We aim to incentivize our user's search for self-care & wellbeing by always having cash in their wallets with the help of our sponsors and cashback ecosystem.
Many companies are willing to invest in their communities' wellbeing, sponsoring the sheerME wallet with top-ups, and giving their “community” the opportunity to find, book and pay for self-care in more than 50,000 services available in sheerME.
Why Now? Why launch sheerME now?
Wellbeing, self-care, and mental/physical health is an “investment” we all need to make. The pandemic crisis made this more obvious to all of us and many people tried to look for what they need to improve their self-care, but the lack of offers and online and scattered information made it harder to do it in a frictionless way.
It is actually very hard to find the best wellness, beauty, and fitness services, book and pay for them online. This is actually a problem I found hard for myself, finding it hard to find, book, and pay online for self-care services around me.
WHAT IS THE PROBLEM? The demand for wellbeing is high and increasing… but the online offer is not there!
We all have busy lives, and the decision to take better care of ourselves normally happens after working hours and weekends, or if we need a fast service, last minute, we do not have the time to find a service, call them and wait for someone to pick up the phone, hoping we do not have to call 2 or 3 other options due to the lack of available schedules that align with ours.
Actually, there are great companies that offer online booking services, but 95% of them are software companies offering booking managers with fixed costs, mainly for merchants to manage their existing business.
Being the Wellness and Beauty sectors still a bit behind today’s digital needs, business owners are hesitant to invest in a tool to manage bookings, especially when they are used to managing bookings with pen and paper.
As merchants do not invest in SaaS tools, the online booking offer is limited, and the clients suffer and can’t find what they need: to book and pay online 24/7. They are pushed to use inefficient and outdated ways to book their needs, such as walk-ins or phone bookings. This makes merchants of this sector lose a significant chunk of business, and clients to give up if they need to book after closing hours.
Times have changed, and nowadays people search, book, and buy online, unfortunately, these sectors are lagging behind their customers' digital needs. Today, business owners recognize the importance of digital transition, but what they really want is NEW BUSINESS and MORE ONLINE REACH/CONVERSION. What they need is a Marketplace and not a SaaS tool. What they call for is sheerME.com
THE SOLUTION: What makes sheerME unique?
sheerME created a frictionless marketplace, that helps users find, book, and pay for all their wellness, beauty, and fitness services, 24/7, with instant confirmation.
By booking through sheerME, users always earn cashback over the booked amount back in the wallet, and can also benefit from offers of cash in the wallet from sheerME Sponsors like L’Oréal, Unibanco, Glovo, and others. Or simply choose the merchants who give “SuperCashback” (more cashback in the wallet than others) to incentivize frequency and loyalty.
Our users always gain when using sheerME. They gain on wellbeing, self-care, and earn benefits in the wallet while investing in themselves.
The feeling of “frictionless service” on sheerME is amazing: book and pay online, benefit from the service, and no need to touch your wallet.
sheerME has a wallet and cashback ecosystem that helps users earn cashback each time they book and pay through sheerME.
sheerME is also creating an Employee Benefit Subscription that will help employers Top-up their staff´s wallets with amounts that they can use in over 50,000 services listed today in sheerME.
Today, people want diversity… they do not only want to go to a gym, but they might also want to do a mindfulness class, do Yoga, go to a Spa, get a massage, find a nutritionist, or simply go to a hair salon or a barbershop. People with the sheerME Employee Benefits Top-Up can choose within the diversity we have at sheerME.
Sponsored Top-Ups, we have companies that sponsor the sheerME community with wallet Top-ups, that can be used in any service within sheerME. We have companies like L’Oréal Professionnel Paris that offer 10€ to all sheerME’s new users, and sponsor our cashback, companies like UNIBANCO that give 10€ to all their community to use on sheerME, GLOVO that offer our OnDemand services on their app, many more…
For merchants there are no monthly fees to join sheerME, just a commission over business sent, offering a free booking manager, online payments, and Marketing tools, 100% cloud-based (with no other device needed). But above all, we give access to a support team that helps with the digital transition, as well as creating a seamless service between merchants and clients. This makes the decision to join sheerME easy and increases online booking and payment offers drastically for clients that search online for self-care.
Why is our Team the right one to create a Marketplace in these sectors?
Our team has been implementing successful marketplaces in over 13 countries around the globe for over a decade.
Our combined know-how is extremely valued in areas like digital marketing, e-commerce, creating and growing online communities, and market trends. We have experience in sales, international expansion, and hipper growth, as most of us come from fast growth unicorns.
Due to this combined experience, the sheerME team is the most prepared team to launch, implement and grow a global marketplace aiming to be number one in the Wellbeing sector in the next 5 years.
Growth of over 300% in the 1st-trimester of 2022. Can we grow faster?
The numbers in 2022 have been amazing, and it is very clear to the sheerME Team how we can double down on the numbers.
The “lever” that “moves the needle” are very clear and stepping on the gas comes naturally to all of us. The business is very similar to what we have done in the past, with different challenges that defy us every day, but working with a fast passed mature team, and co-founders with amazing track records make everything much easier and gives us the trust that we can create a better world with accessible wellbeing at the tip of the fingers of everyone.
We want to help everyone to find and book what they need to live a healthier life. People do want to live a healthier life and they need sheerME in their lives and pockets.
What's next? Launching internationally, going global, and Scaling our business.
We at sheerME are testing our product in 2 different regions and tweaking the product to have a global reach in the next few months.

Any merchant anywhere in the world will be able to activate sheerME just with a few clicks and benefit from all our cloud-based services, and community reach, with our global partners L’Oréal, Google, Facebook, Instagram, Whatsapp, Messenger, Revolut, and Glovo.
