Pepper.com Creates Smart Online ShoppersBitcoinist_Pepper.com

Combining deals from countries such as the UK, US, Poland, India, and France – to name just a few – is the main reason Pepper.com is becoming a more important platform to online shoppers. With over 25 million consumers who cannot only publish, but also discuss and vote on ongoing promotions, the platform has surpassed the threshold of  500 million page impressions per month.

Up until this point, very few have ever heard of Pepper.com, let alone used the platform for their online shopping needs. E-Commerce is a growing business all over the world, and attracting customers is an ongoing battle for retailers. Sweetening some of the deals will go a long way regarding establishing a global customer base, and getting listed on Pepper.com will certainly help.

Despite this minor success so far, Pepper.com employs 100 people around the world, which is quite an impressive start. Furthermore, the company has headquarters in Berlin, and other European officers in Lyon (France) and London (UK). However, it is important to note the reach of Pepper.com goes well beyond the European borders, as they cover deals in America and Asia as well.

Especially that latter region is of great interest, as gaining a foothold in countries like India is not an easy task for European companies. Thanks to a merger with Desidime, Pepper.com is represented in India as well. But that is not all, as a newly announced joint venture with Méliuz will bring this platform’s potential to online shoppers in Brazil soon.

Even though Pepper.com is expanding its reach across countries and continents, the question remains whether or not this company is making a profit at all. According to a representative, Pepper.com is a profitable business, and both their German and UK platforms have been financed through profits in recent years. Quite an impressive feat, considering the company never partook in any form of funding since its inception.
