CHANNELADVISOR ANNOUNCES SUPPORT FOR EBAY EXPRESS
Leader in Channel Management Continues Its Marketplace Expansion
Research Triangle Park, NC – January 19, 2006 – ChannelAdvisor, the leading provider of channel management solutions (CMS), today announced plans to support eBay Express immediately when it launches.
Yesterday, eBay announced eBay Express, a new specialty site that features fixed-price PayPal listings and a new streamlined checkout experience. A unified shopping cart allows buyers to purchase items from multiple sellers in one order further simplifying the sometimes complex eBay buying process.
eBay’s top merchants leverage the ChannelAdvisor platform for their eBay and off-eBay channel management. ChannelAdvisor’s support for eBay Express will allow these top merchants to leverage the new platform when it is released allowing them to adopt the platform early and rapidly thus giving them a competitive edge.
“The ChannelAdvisor platform has allowed us to grow our online shoe business dramatically over the last two years,” said Mark Fitzgerald, Partner, VP Technology and Operations of Grapevinehill.com. “We count on ChannelAdvisor providing early support for new cutting edge platforms such as Google Base, IAC’s Pronto and now eBay Express. We look forward to being live and selling on eBay Express before many of our eBay competitors thanks to ChannelAdvisor.”
“We’ve work diligently with our online sales channel partners to make sure we support new opportunities out of the gate,” said Scot Wingo, ChannelAdvisor’s Chief Executive Officer. “Our customers count on us for their success and we take that responsibility extremely seriously and therefore make sure we are diligently on top of any new E-Commerce opportunities like eBay Express.
