Our take
Flip is setting out to change the eCommerce landscape by combining social networking with online shopping. Through its short-form video-based platform, brands and shoppers can connect on a more genuine level than typical marketing strategies enable, building more trusted relationships that can lead to better experiences for customers and heightened sales for brands.
The company presents itself as a blend between TikTok's discovery model and a high-end eCommerce service. The app features products across a range of categories from home to beauty and from fitness to pets, rated and reviewed in video form by influencers and fellow shoppers. Interestingly, the app encourages every shopper to become a creator on the platform with a suite of tools that includes the option to monetize their content.
Flip also employs strict policies that prohibit brands from exerting influence on product reviews, answering the consumer call for more authenticity in reviews. With this approach allowing it to stand out against other social commerce options, and with strong funding at its back, the company has a real chance to grow its presence and connect more brands and shoppers in the future.
