ShopTo.net the UK’s leading independent games retailer announces the release of a new iPhone App.
ShopTo.net has today announced the launch of a free new iPhone app aimed at their ever growing community of gamers and video games buyers. The new app allows customers to browse the store, shop online, check their orders and pre-order the latest releases.
However, the ShopTo iPhone App is not just a sales tool as Igor Cipolletta CEO of ShopTo points out. “ShopTo.net is a great deal more than just a place to buy video games, it’s a community of gamers. That’s why we wanted our app to be a portal into that community. So within the app you can watch game trailers in crystal clarity or post on the forum along with 40,000 other gamers. You can read reviews and review games yourself. You can link into your twitter or facebook account and carry on the conversation there as well.”
“As well as giving full access to the community we wanted the shopping process to be as fluid as possible. We spent a long time making sure this was just right and I think the final app really shows this.”
Just a few of the ShopTo.net iPhone App’s Features
1. Search for Games
2. Order Online
3. Post in the forum
4. Watch trailers on ShopTo TV
A video of the ShopTo App can be seen here
ShopTo.net are no strangers to innovation having recently upgraded their entire warehouse to almost full automation. This allows them to pack one game every two seconds and give next day delivery right up to 5.30pm. They also provide a full SMS service meaning you can order, pay and track your items by text message.
The ShopTo iPhone application provides the next step in their commitment to providing full customer support and satisfaction.
The free ShopTo iPhone app is available from today and is already proving a huge success with the iTunes store adding it to its coveted “New & Noteworthy” section.

Good Morning
We are pleased to announce that we have brought our payment for global (non UK originated bookings) in line with our UK programme, meaning we will now pay the standard 2% commission of the GBP booking value on any booking in any territory, excluding the great introductory 3% commission for three months for all new affiliates.
This development is really important for us, as publishers can now be rewarded equally for all sales made in and outside of the UK. Bringing the remuneration process in line with our UK programme should make it easier for publishers to understand our programme and know exactly what they will be earning from the bookings they make. We are committed to our affiliate programme and to giving publishers great opportunities to maximise their earning potential and over the coming months we will be communicating more and more special offers from around the world.
The change came into play on 24 February so all transactions from this date will be paid for at the 2% rate, which is fantastic new for our publishers!
If you have any questions at all please feel free to contact me.
