This document discusses social media checkout options and a company called Chooos that aims to improve checkout conversions. It notes that conversion rates are lower on mobile than desktop for social media checkouts currently due to complex checkout processes. Chooos allows sellers to create cross-network posts where users can purchase directly from social media timelines or apps on any device. The document outlines Chooos' business model of promotional campaigns, subscriptions and transaction fees and notes they have raised $350k so far from investors.
