Hey, नमस्ते, Hola, Nǐ hǎo 👋

Popup is a 100% remote company with multinational teams. Join us as we change commerce forever.

About Popup

Popup is building the world's largest, most valuable community of entrepreneurs, creators, brands and partners. The products and services that Popup provides are designed to support them in building successful businesses.

Our commerce platform is at the core of what we do. Popup (www.popup.store) is the only no-code e-commerce platform that enables merchants to build online Popup Stores powered by visual customer journeys. Popup is based on the understanding that one-size-fits-all approaches do not work and that flexibility is key.

With online Popup Stores merchants can visually build and control customer journeys while managing multiple online Popup Stores from 1 admin in multiple languages and currencies. There's a video on our site to see it in action.

Popup was founded by 3 people (Corey, Matteo, and Cait) who are ex-Shopify and who have over 30 years of combined experience in e-commerce. Popup is currently 20+ people in teams such as Engineering, People, Marketing, Merchant Success and Product.
