Creating highly intuitive, demand generating shopping technologies that offer elegant and efficient online advertising solutions for retailers

The online world is an extension of our real lives and our online experiences are always best when they reflect that connection. That’s why we at Wishabi continually develop and reinvent new and meaningful shopping technologies that not only engage consumers online with the effectiveness of offline advertising, but offer them relevant content, efficiency and intuitive design. Our goal is to help retailers drive sales and build their brand, allow media partners to leverage their user base with engaging shopping technologies, and facilitate consumers in their online search for valuable deals.

As offline consumers wanting to start shopping online, we were frustrated with the virtual shopping experiences available. We wanted trustworthy, impartial sources for online shopping, with intelligent tools that could help us decide where and when to buy. We wanted online shopping technologies with more selection and valuable knowledge than offline or online advertising could offer. After all, the internet is supposed to be the world at your fingertips, right? And so, Wishabi was born in 2007, led by an ex-Microsoft team with over 10 years of experience in the technology and retail fields.

While perfecting relationships that are desirable for both retailers and media partners, Wishabi's shopping platforms engage consumers with unparalleled user experience, intelligence and merchandising

Wishabi emerged with its first retail technology platform, product search, in February 2010. Wishabi’s team, like other consumers, wanted to comparison shop online, without worrying about whether or not they were getting the best deal. We wanted to give consumers a clear outline of duties and handling fees, if they were purchasing from the U.S., and we wanted a platform that fostered social shopping and deal sharing among users. With only 100 users at launch, the product search platform now boasts more than 2.6 Million unique monthly visitors and continues to see its user base increase.

In 2010, Wishabi developed strategic partnerships with MSN/Microsoft, Bing, and Canada Post and initiated control and operation of Bing/MSN Shopping Canada and Canada Post Comparison Shopper, utilizing our product search technology. Through extensive partnerships with MSN, Bing, and other media conglomerates, we also began to offer hand-picked, in-article product placements to our retailers in 2010, leveraging a monthly user base of over 19 Million.

Wishabi launched its next-generation digital flyer technology in 2011. Reshaping the way consumers interact with online ad-circulars, our digital flyer keeps users engaged with the brand the way retailers intended and, from paper to digital, nothing gets lost in translation. With the best user-experience, distribution and analytics on the market, Wishabi’s next-generation digital flyers already have North America’s leading retailers buzzing.
