Shopcliq

Founded in 2012 and based in Sao Paulo, Brazil, Shopcliq operated as a social commerce platform for fashion enthusiasts. The company's main offering was an online platform where users could interact, discover, and purchase fashion products and brands. It provided product information such as value, store, brand, and reviews, facilitating a seamless discovery and buying process.

The business model centered on the principles of social commerce, a fusion of social media interaction and e-commerce that allows consumers to discover, share, and buy products within a single social environment. This approach streamlines the purchasing process, as the entire shopping experience, from browsing to checkout, occurs within the platform, eliminating the need to redirect to an external store. The platform was designed to enhance customer engagement through community-driven interactions. Shopcliq was a funded company that was eventually acqui-hired, marking its exit from the market.
