Wow, actually pretty nerve racking submitting here. But, there it is. We applied and hope Cinch is in the next batch at YC.

Our site was just launched, so might be a little buggy, but we are proud of the product we have built. Would love feedback from the HN faithful!

The website has a horizontal scroll bar unless I devote an entire monitor to it (1920 pixels, FF 24). I actually did have your site at full screen, but I use a vertical tab bar, so you didn't get my entire viewport. There's quite a bit of padding, so you don't actually need that much width.

Hmmm...in what browser are you getting that scroll bar?

Ah, FF 24. Thanks for the heads up.

Looks like a good application. One issue I had with viewing the site is that I had to watch 30 seconds of the video before I realized what it was.

'better loyalty. smarter marketing' is not obvious to me that its a loyalty card type program with a terminal display.

Thank you!

Great point. We've toyed with the idea of a more generic-but-descriptive tag line. We assumed that most people would already have a basic idea of what Cinch is when they landed on the site (HN visitors obviously won't), but perhaps that's not a safe assumption to make?
