The SHOP.COM Story
In 1997 Lee Lorenzen found his mailbox
bulging with more than two dozen catalogs, all delivered in a single
day. Being both an entrepreneur and a technologist, he realized that
there must be a more efficient way for merchants to place their offers
in front of customers.
Now, backed by a decade of technology
development, the original vision has evolved into an extremely robust
multi-merchant marketplace where customers can shop from thousands of
brands and hundreds of stores using our patented OneCart™ technology
and a single account. It’s called SHOP.COM.
We began by
partnering with merchants. Big merchants. Small merchants. Merchants
with household brands and those with specialty niche products. In all
cases, merchants who have passed SHOP.COM’s OneCart™ Trusted Merchant
Certification Program, a stringent quality review process that insists
on family-friendly products and a demonstrated expertise at remote
shopping - from high quality product presentations to on-time delivery
and conscientious customer service.
As a result, at SHOP.COM, we
provide easy access to a vast selection of products and merchants –
from well-known name brands to lesser-known but equally high quality
specialty retailers – organized for convenience in finding, comparing
and buying items for the home, family, work, friends and personal needs
and interests.
Our multi-merchant features --- search, gift
registries, wish lists, save-for-later, date reminders, and eGifts,
among others – are unique. No where else can shoppers create wedding
registries or wish lists that feature traditional gifts from well known
merchants as well as unique items from boutique retailers all in a
single location. Our proprietary, patented OneCart solution provides
shoppers with the convenience of one password-protected account that
allows them to buy from hundreds of merchants and thousands of brands
using one universal shopping cart, one navigational experience, and one
place to track, manage and remember all of their purchases, day-to-day
and year-to-year, safely and securely.
We believe that a shopping
venue that provides convenience and ease of use, lots of choices and
great prices, safety and security, trusted brands and hard-to-find
products and a personalized experience is compelling. And SHOP•COM
delivers all that.
Thank you for visiting us.
