SUMOskinny is a social reading rewards site targeted towards the college and young professional demographic. Students have a wide variety of interests. SUMO allows them to personalize the way they interact with news.


SUMO gives writers and readers rewards through gamification. Writers earn badges based off their accomplishments, while users generate points for liking stories, following writers and sharing content via social media. They may redeem those points for free goodies in our shop.
