Shwinkers makes it easy to mobilize your friends or make new ones.


Life’s a party and here’s your invitation.

Shwinkers is the social network for drinkers; a closed, cabal that caters exclusively to the cocktail community. Shwinkers is a mash up of the words “social” and “drinkers” and is driven by the answer to the universal question: Where do you want to drink ... cheap?

Shwinker is launching first in select neighborhoods in Los Angeles (Silver Lake, Echo Park, Los Feliz and Studio City, Sherman Oaks Los Feliz) Coming to your neighborhood soon!

Drink Deals negotiated exclusively for members-only

Spread Cheer via the Cheers Page

Here’s how it works:

Open up the app and find a list of bars in your neighborhood. Not bakeries or gyms or dog parks or pilate’s studios. Just bars. We’ve found that Shwinkers, as a whole, like bars.

But our list is prioritized according to the number of Shwinkers present and the number of exclusive Shwinker Drink Deals that we’ve negotiated for you; so you could tell in an instant which bars were happening now.

Once you’ve checked in and started Shwinking, your location will be available (if you choose) to your closed network of Shwinking Buddies, so they can join in on the fun. Or they’ll also be able to “in app message” you their whereabouts because they might be Shwinking at a better joint and you could join them ... or avoid them all together.

It works locally. It works when you travel to a new city. Anywhere around the world. Suppose youre traveling for business or pleasure or even stuck at an airport in Prague, Paris or Pittsburgh. You can open up your Shwinker app and again you’ll see a list of bars in your area prioritized by the number of Shwinkers. And if you’re sitting in that hotel in Cincinnati or Kathmandu and want to have a drink, but not necessarily alone, you’ll see that there’s another Shwinker or ten other Shwinkers at a bar close by and odds are... that’s where you’ll go because now you’re one of us.

Shwinkers seeks, at its core, physically and philosophically, to spread “cheer.” In fact, when two Shwinkers meet, they bump their phones together creating an electronic toast, and a “Cheers” is registered on our global Cheers counter.

Shwinkers is for Shwinkers by Shwinkers of Shwinkers and we won’t over-share your information across the entire social landscape. You have total control over your visibility. Shwinkers never shares or posts information that its users haven’t expressly chosen to share.

It’s a global drinking club and we want you to be a member.

o Make more money!
