Hey everyone! 👋
Excited to share Smoke App — a platform we built to help local vape, cigar, and tobacco shops bring their business online without needing a developer.
Most smoke shops are stuck relying on walk-in traffic only, with no easy way to take online orders, schedule deliveries, or run a loyalty program. We built Smoke App to fix that — retailers get their own 24/7 online storefront, delivery scheduling, and loyalty tools, all while we handle the compliance and fraud-risk side that makes this industry tricky to build for.
We also built a B2B side: distributors and brands can connect directly with verified retailers through a dedicated marketplace, so restocking and brand consistency across locations gets a lot easier too.
This is a tough industry to build payment and compliance infrastructure for, so we'd love your feedback — especially from anyone who's worked in retail tech, payments, or high-risk merchant services. Happy to answer any questions in the comments!
