Walkers and wheelchairs seem to have established themselves as the sole options for people with mobility issues.
We believe in something better.
Hall-of-Fame Inventor Garrett Brown revolutionized the craft of filmmaking and broadcasting. Then his own aging parents revealed how abruptly the joy of movement could be taken from someone you love. Here’s the story of how Garrett and partners invented and developed the first Zeen prototypes - to help people challenged by age, injury, and disease recover the joys of daily living.

Why are we here?
Joy in life shouldn't be hindered by cost. We have partnered with CoCoPay to bring crowd-financing solutions to those who need some extra help. Campaigns found here are all ExoKinetic, Inc. customers looking for their own Zeen. Through this method, friends and family can assist a loved one with obtaining a Zeen, without the stress of traditional crowdfunding methods.
Crowd-financing? What is that?
Through crowd-financing with CoCoPay™ , families collaborate with their social networks to gift their loved one a Zeen device. The family (or a helpful friend) registers a crowdfunding campaign and shares it via email, social media, or direct messages. They craft a story about how a Zeen will change their loved one's life, then collect online pledges from those in their networks who wish to help.
People pledge using a credit card, bank card, or PayPal account. The campaign runs for a set time, and if it reaches its goal, the payment provider completes the charges. The family and the supporters won’t incur any costs if the campaign falls short of the goal. All pledges are cancelled in that case. However, CoCoPay coaches will guide families through the entire process to provide the best opportunity for success!
Unlike other crowdfunding platforms, contributions are paid directly to Exokinetics, ensuring accountability for the funds used and avoiding negative impacts on families’ income tax or social benefits programs.
The family uses CoCoPay's platform and coaching services for free:
- Exokinetics covers payment processing costs.
- Supporters receive the option to top up their pledge, which helps keep CoCoPay’s platform and coaching services free for families.
Savings from interest and platform fees range from hundreds to thousands of dollars per family. And the strength, the delight, and the life this gift brings someone with mobility issues is incomparable. Options like CareCredit are still available if a campaign is unsuccessful; however, the savings are well worth the try.

Crowd-financing FAQ
Thank you for taking the time to read about the crowd-financing process with CoCoPay!
This campaign allows supporters (i.e. you!) to fund a Zeen mobility device for someone whose life will change for the better. Funds from friends and family members are collected here and sent directly to Exokinetics , meaning your contribution is secure and worry-free.
Contributions are initially pledges and are ONLY processed into transactions if the campaign reaches its goal. Then, Exokinetics receives their funds, and the beneficiary receives a Zeen!
If the campaign does not reach its goal, no transactions occur. Supporters and campaign owners will not incur any costs.
Frequently asked questions:
-
When will I be charged?
When the campaign reaches its goal, Stripe or PayPal processes your payment. Processing usually occurs within a few weeks but can sometimes happen right away if the campaign funds quickly.
-
Do I get a tax receipt for my contribution?
Unfortunately not. Funds collected here are purchasing a product on behalf of someone without being handled by a registered nonprofit or charity. Therefore, contributions do not qualify for a tax receipt .
-
Who pays the costs of this campaign?
The campaign is responsible for the fundraising fees. You can help achieve this goal faster by paying the portion of the fees associated with your contribution on their behalf. Covering fees is entirely optional but truly helps the beneficiary even further.
-
How long will the campaign run?
Campaigns run until they hit their funding goal. If the beneficiary and their support team decide the campaign is not likely to fund, they can stop it anytime, and payments are NOT processed. Your contribution is, therefore, risk-free, and we encourage you to add your pledge immediately, as this inspires others to follow!
-
Does the money go to the campaign owner or the company?
The funds are collected on behalf of [beneficiary] directly by [company]. When the campaign collects enough pledges to reach its goal, [company] receives funds to be applied directly to [beneficiary’s] invoice. This process removes concerns about the campaign not reaching its goal or the funds being accidentally misallocated.

Just because someone has trouble moving in the same way most people do, does not mean they shouldn't move at all! Walkers and wheelchairs are slow, cumbersome, and often just impossible to move on certain terrains. Not to mention the sheer effort they take to move... shouldn't we give those with mobility issues an easier time moving?
