"The opportunity for local businesses to leverage the online world is immense, and that's what we want to enable for Singapore. We are looking at the market opportunity through three audience segments -- existing SMEs that are selling their products but are not online, existing SMEs that are selling their products offline with a minimal presence online or selling through marketplaces and, lastly, the big opportunity that sits with Individual entrepreneurs who have yet to realise the potential of doing business online. If we just look at Singapore, SMEs take up 99% of all enterprises in this city-state and there is a significant base of untapped individual entrepreneurs[1]," CEO & Co-Founder of Shopmatic Group, Anurag Avula said.

We are focused on helping not only the SMEs and individual entrepreneurs to find their success in the online world, but also to give them global exposure.

"We have no hidden costs and charge just $38 per month for enabling the entire online ecosystem for our customers. You get four months free if you sign up for our 12-month plan and a month free with our six-month plan. We don't charge any additional fees per sale made by the customer."
