Improved brand search at Shobble

Posted Jan. 14, 2011 by Jori  ·  Posted in Site news

We have been working hard to improve shop information in Shobble. Earlier this week, shop information editing was made easier with new tools. Thanks to these improvements we hit a new milestone today: 100 most popular shops now include detailed and validated brand, delivery and payment information! This is just a fraction of the shops listed but we'll keep working with the data.


What does this mean to you? First of all, searching shops is now easier than ever: just input your favourite brand into search field and we'll find shops selling their products for you. After that you can skim through the results, check delivery info in Shobble and head out to shop.

We hope these improvements will help you with your online shopping!

New feature: Detailed shop information

Posted Jan. 12, 2011 by Jori  ·  Posted in Site news

If you're an active online shopper, you've probably used few hours of your life digging into help sections trying to find delivery information of online shops. We know that it can make or break the shopping experience and it's something we're trying to solve with Shobble. This is why we updated shop profile pages recently to bring more information about shops and especially about delivery and payment.

Today we're introducing a new feature: possibility to edit detailed shop information. Option is open for everyone so after you have added a new shop there's a possibility to add more detailed information about it. Shobble's staff is actively updating shops and now shops can also be claimed by shop staff members. After the information is validated by our staff or the shop is claimed, we usually close the editing to keep the information correct.

Please share your feedback about changes on our support community or Facebook page. We're constantly improving things and appreciate your help and support.

Welcome to new Shobble!

Posted Dec. 8, 2010 by Jori  ·  Posted in Site news

Hi there,

We're happy to let you know that we're launcing new Shobble today. With the completely resigned fresh look we also have some interesting new features for you to enjoy.

Shop recommendations just got better!


With Shobble you can discover new interesting online shops but we also made it easier to save your favourites and share them with your friends. Your profile will now show your latest comments, favourite shops and it's visible to your Facebook friends.

We wanted to keep the best parts of old Shobble and renew everything else. The much loved category browsing is still there (with new categories!) but instead of boring reviews we want to ignite conversations: you can now post comments, questions or tips to interesting shops and others can post replies to them.

One more thing...

We know that reading and following newsletters can sometimes be exhausting. This is why our shop profiles are now updated with latest discounts and offers. You can post these deals to shops as well.

To keep up with shop updates we transformed your front page into Facebook like newsfeed. Just add the shops you want to follow as favourites and we'll do the rest.

How to get started?


  1. Visit Shobble.com and create an account

  2. Browse Shobble and save your favourite shops to your profile.

  3. Invite friends to join and share their experiences and favourite shops.

  4. Share your tips and tricks about best shops and their products.

  5. Remember to share the love!


We hope that you love the new Shobble as much as we do. Remember to join our Facebook group to get the latest updates.

Welcome,

Shobble team
