Ziploop Named Finalist in Shop.org Digital Commerce Startup of the Year Competition, Releases New App Version
SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 6, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- 2015 has been good to Ziploop, the cutting edge digital wallet app based in San Francisco, and it's only the first week. The National Retail Federation announced Ziploop as one of five finalists for its prestigious Shop.org Digital Commerce Startup of the Year Competition. A team of venture capitalists, retailers and top industry leaders will evaluate the startup, along with four of the industry's other hottest new companies.
"We are honored that the National Retail Federation recognized Ziploop as one of the top startups serving the e-commerce and retail world. The digital wallet frontier is one of the hottest topics of 2015 and it's exciting to see top industry analysts recognize Ziploop as leading the way," says Ziploop CEO and Co-Founder Peter Jackson.
Ziploop has moved beyond what even the industry sees as cutting edge with its innovative new app. "2015 is the year of the digital wallet. Many of the early digital wallet adopters are focused on the transaction, where as Ziploop is focused on all the other things that are in your purse or wallet," says Jackson. "Ziploop solves two problems in one. First, it solves the consumer problem of having too much paper and plastic in your wallet. Second, we provide a platform for retailers to issue mobile rewards and coupons."
Ziploop has developed a set of easy to use tools for users to quickly transfer paper receipts, rewards, membership cards and gift cards into digital, all of which can be easily accessed by phone, tablet or desktop.
Ziploop also provides tremendous benefit to the retailer. It consolidates the data from its consumer app to help drive point of sale, communication and loyalty between retailers and their customers. Ziploop essentially provides retailers, regardless of their size, with their own mobile app to communicate with customers. These retailers can use Ziploop's enterprise dashboard to analyze data behind customer shopping habits and then send targeted rewards directly to their mobile device. The application to date has processed over 10 million documents and has been marketed to shoppers in over 200 malls by Simon Property Group.
Major malls, brands, retailers and investors are buying into the Ziploop digital wallet. The app harnesses the real power and simplicity that both consumers and retailers seek. "We are creating the digital wallet for the future," says Jackson.
The newest version of Ziploop is now available on iTunes and Google Play. The company will be presenting the real digital wallet of the future at NRF's Retail's BIG Show in New York City on Monday, January 12th. For more information, please visit https://www.ziploop.com.
