ABOUT FLIP
Launched in December 2021, Flip is building the next-generation social & live commerce platform by combining a TikTok-like discovery experience with a premium e-commerce service. Through a community of shoppers sharing video reviews of products they’ve purchased on the platform, buyers can discover products through 60 second videos of user-generated content that is instantly shoppable with a one-click checkout and same day shipping. Every shopper can then become a creator by sharing their own reviews and monetizing their content.
Based in Los Angeles, FLIP was founded by serial entrepreneur and e-commerce veteran Nooruldeen “Noor” Agha.
