Storenvy is the only store builder and marketplace in one.
Merchants can create branded online storefronts in minutes, for free. The social marketplace allows them to connect with customers they wouldn’t have otherwise reached. The Storenvy Facebook app gives merchants a free store on their Facebook page.
Shoppers discover long-tail products in interesting ways and, when they buy, feel great about supporting brands with a story behind them.
Like Tumblr has evolved blogging to be super simple, free and social, Storenvy is evolving e-commerce.
Premium features are available to storefronts for a monthly fee, including custom domains for $4.99/month and advanced discount features for $2.99/month.
