Totspot App Now Available on Android
Premier social marketplace for buying and selling gently loved kids' fashion expands digital presence
Mountain View, CA, November 14, 2014 (Newswire.com) - Totspot, the premier social platform for buying and selling gently loved children’s fashion, announced today the launch of its free app for Android devices. Totspot, unique in its fashion-brand focus, hip Pinterest-like design and ease-of-use, is now available in the App Store and on Google Play making it even easier for moms to shop and sell.
"Launching Totspot for Android is a huge milestone for our platform and community," said Vijay Ramani, CEO and co-founder of Totspot. "With this rapid expansion, Totspot is now everywhere a mom is. Totspot provides no-sweat shopping so moms can quickly find the perfect sparkly holiday dress, new furry boots or the latest in outerwear to keep kids warm and fashionable this winter.”
Totspot solves the age-old challenge every parent faces when outfitting their growing soccer stars and fashionistas – kids grow, clothes don’t. Moms using Apple and Android technology join the Totspot community by creating a user profile and then shop the latest fashions by keyword, size or style. Sellers simply take a picture of an item, upload it along with a brief description and the Totspot platform transforms it into a snappy attractive post. Sellers can bundle items by size, style or category. When items sell, Totspot deposits 80 percent of the transaction into the seller’s account and keeps a 20 percent commission. To complete each transaction, Totspot sends a prepaid addressed label to the seller to simplify shipping and delivery to the buyer.
Launched less than a year ago by entrepreneurs Vijay Ramani and Vikrant
Ramteke, Totspot is already used by a national mom-to-mom community, with 65
percent being return shoppers. Totspot recently received $1.8 million in seed funding led
by GGV Capital. Other investors include 500 Startups, Jerry Yang (AME Cloud
Ventures), and QueensBridge Venture Partners.
