Pi Network’s Holiday Surprise: Discounts, Prizes, and New Ways to Spend Pi

With the 2025 Holiday season already here, the Pi Network team has outlined a new initiative to expand overall ecosystem engagement for commerce apps and local Pi-accepting merchants.

Pioneers will have the opportunity to shop with Pi online and in person, while also enjoying some hefty discounts.

Pi and the Holidays

The so-called Community Commerce Initiative aims to support small businesses, strengthen the real-world utility of the project’s native token, and make it easier for Pioneers to discover apps and merchants that accept the asset. Pi Network’s team is also hosting a community raffle to make the new movement more exciting, featuring Pi-branded merchandise, including t-shirts and hats.

They explained that the initiative will be a simple, fully decentralized process for app developers and merchants who want to participate. All they have to do is create their own holiday deals, discounts, or creative shopping activations, promote them in the PiFest Fireside Forum Channel, and handle their sales, fulfillment, and delivery directly with the potential customers.

Pi Network will provide the necessary visibility by aggregating all activity into a single ecosystem-wide event, while leaving full creative freedom to third-party builders.

Users who want to be part of the new initiative need to browse the Pi ecosystem directory or the Fireside Forum to find participating merchants, shop through Mainnet commerce apps or at local Pi-accepting businesses, enjoy seasonal promotions within the ecosystem, and share their holiday shopping experiences in the PiFest channel.

100 Pi Merchandise Winners

Aside from Holiday-season discounts, users will be able to win branded items. One hundred winners will be selected from all valid PiFest channel posts to receive shirts and hats, which will be fulfilled through a third-party provider with distribution available in more than 220 regions worldwide, the team said.

Posts on the PiFest Fireside Forum channel are automatically registered in the raffle. However, the team explained that prizes are “non-transferable, not for resale, and do not imply any formal affiliation with Pi Network.”

In its mandatory disclaimer, the Core Team asserted that all Pi apps involved in the process are third-party applications that have not been developed or endorsed by them. As such, Pioneers should participate and transact at their own discretion.
