Ways DAOs Can Use Farcaster Frames for Subscription Updates

published on 21 August 2024

As decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) continue to evolve, effective communication is becoming key to maintaining community involvement. Farcaster Frames can offer an innovative solution for DAOs looking to improve their subscription-based updates. By using the interactive and dynamic capabilities of Frames, DAOs can simplify communication, encourage members to create deeper connections, and keep them informed and involved. Here are a few practical ways to take advantage of Farcaster Frames for subscription updates:

Seamless Subscription Management

  • Embed subscription options directly within Frames.
  • Allow members to subscribe to updates, newsletters, or exclusive content without leaving the platform.
  • Simplify the onboarding process, making it easier for members to stay informed.

Enhanced User Engagement

  • Facilitate direct interaction with content through Q&A sessions.
  • Encourage members to engage with the content and each other in meaningful and new ways.
  • Nouns DAO and other Farcaster DAOs like Purple and Builder DAO are using Frames to display current bids on their membership auctions. This allows the community to stay up-to-date on the latest happenings and gain insight into the wider ecosystem.
  • Seneca, a Nouns founding member, began enabling community participation in weekly retro funding rounds of 5ETH and 3ETH using Frames. Members can nominate others who have provided value by commenting on a post, and funds are distributed based on likes to the nomination comments. This reduces friction and increases participation while giving visibility to the community's activities.

Simplified Payment Options

  • Enable payment processing directly within Frames for subscription-based services.
  • Reduce friction and enhance the overall user experience.
  • Make it easier for members to subscribe and support the DAO.

Community-Driven Content Creation

  • Allow members to submit content ideas or topics for discussion through Frames.
  • Enrich the content with community contributions.
  • Strengthen community ties and promote a participatory approach.

Farcaster-Native DAO Experiences

  • Nouns DAO is prioritizing staying within a Nouns-branded Farcaster client, with a Nouns x Farcaster Prop approved to provide 300k USD to developer teams. This future mobile app would enable the Nouns collectives to gather together, bid on proposals in-feed, nominate members to roles, and distribute funds, all without leaving the app or dealing with wallet safety.

Conclusion

By leveraging Farcaster Frames, DAOs can create engaging subscription-based experiences that simplify communication, encourage deeper community involvement, and streamline payment options. The interactive and dynamic capabilities of Frames offer a powerful tool for DAOs to enhance their subscription updates and foster a more connected and informed membership.
