- Brands can be promoted in each market

- Employees and agents of brands can request admin access, subject to KYC verification
Customers find brands in search for brand or related search terms (tags)
Both active brands (with registered admin) and inactive brands (without an active admin) are in searches.
The search hierarchy on lolly! is:
(1) Active brands with active campaigns
(2) Active brands
(3) Inactive brands
Results are shown based on the user's relationship to the brand and to the search term (tag), as well as based on location.
