ShoppingBank.com is an innovative ‘social shopping’ website. It’s the place where online shopping meets social networking.

Here’s the way it works from the consumer/shopper perspective; Firstly they create their own personalised shop within ShoppingBank.com, filling it with their own favourite products, brands or retailers (chosen either from the millions of products already within the site itself, or from anywhere else on the internet using our clever “Add” button). Then they can either buy the products (straightaway or at any time in the future), or discuss with/recommend them to other users, review/rate the products and of course simply connect with friends or like-minded shoppers. Simple as that.

And here’s how it works from YOUR perspective as a business; By advertising with ShoppingBank.com (there are various options and rates) you have the opportunity to significantly increase your visibility and thereby become a “Favourite” of the consumers. This in turn will help you secure new business and repeat business and also to create powerful “advocates” of your products/brand.
