Shoppegram

Shoppegram is a Malaysian e-commerce platform that enables business owners to create their own online stores without needing technical expertise. The company was founded by Vickson Tan and YC Ng.

The platform integrates with various services, including payment gateways like Atome for 'buy now, pay later' options and communication tools such as Wasapbot for automated WhatsApp notifications, abandoned cart recovery, and customer follow-ups. These integrations aim to streamline operations for store owners, from order management to marketing automation.
