About the company
Spring built a mobile-first e-commerce marketplace that connects shoppers with a curated mix of fashion and lifestyle brands. It runs as a platform where consumers browse multiple brands in one app and complete a single checkout for items from different labels, while Spring itself does not hold inventory. Revenue comes from commissions on each sale across the brands on the platform. The product works by listing partner brands in a digital storefront, allowing users to add items to a shared cart from multiple brands, and then processing payments and orders through the app. The site differentiates itself by offering a seamless, multi-brand shopping experience with a single-cart checkout and a brand-discovery channel, rather than competing as a retailer with its own stock. Its goal was to simplify mobile shopping and expand access to a curated set of fashion and lifestyle brands, turning discovery and purchase into a straightforward, centralized experience.
