We started Verishop two years ago to create a social shopping destination that brings joy back to online shopping. Historically, online shopping has largely been lonely, search-driven and uninspiring. E-commerce platforms with large selections are lacking in delightful ways to discover new products. Social media destinations are inspirational but are disconnected from the shopping functionality, creating friction and confusion.
The launch of Livestream Shopping on the Verishop iOS app is our next step in seamlessly combining ways to discover, connect and shop in an engaging app designed for commerce.
We are beginning with more than 115 streamers, who are diverse and talented experts, influencers and brand voices that will be able to share their expertise and connect with their fans. This includes personalities like model and entrepreneur Kate Bock; actress and influencer Inanna Sarkis; Gen-Z rising star and former campaign strategist for Kamala Harris, Deja Foxx; YouTube stars Jourdan Sloane and Gabriel Zamora; TikTok favorite Taylor Hage; celebrity stylist Courtney Mays; and brands like R+Co, Nicole Saldana and 1822 Denim. In the coming months, we will open Livestream Shopping to a broader number of streamers.
