What’s Flubit?
Flubit is one of the UK’s brightest technology start-ups.
We’ve built a private e-commerce marketplace that connects shoppers with online retailers through a revolutionary personalised shopping service. On Flubit.com, we can provide better prices for shoppers on items they’ve already decided to buy.
Since our launch in October 2012, we have hosted millions of pounds worth of transactions. We have hundreds of retailers, hundreds of thousands of customers and millions of products within our inventory.
We’ve also developed innovative technologies that allow partners, including Barclaycard, to seamlessly integrate our platform to offer exciting new e-commerce propositions to their customers and directly access our ever growing catalogue of discounted products.
We are now poised to scale massively, with particular focus on customer growth and bringing additional partners on board.
