We are the mobile commerce engine that powers shopping for Shopify's fastest-growing brands. $15B+ in revenue processed. 200M+ shoppers worldwide. Brands like Princess Polly, Béis, Forever 21, and Young LA rely on us to power a large portion of their revenue.
We're a lean team with minimal management and big autonomy. Everyone here builds and code is core to what we do - engineers, product, leadership. We use our own platform, we talk to merchants daily, and we ship constantly. Backed by Shopify, Silver Lake and other top VCs. Profitable and growing
