About Banter

Online shopping hasn't changed in twenty years. We go through the same customer journe using the same features of add to cart, ratings, and reviews.

Worse, everytime we go to an online store, we are completely alone. While online shopping is convenient, it doesn't feel good. eCommerce stores have stripped out emotion to become more like vending machines.

We believe commerce is at an inflection point. We are building Banter to productize the emotion of shopping. We are doing so by transforming storefronts from single-player to multiplayer experiences.

Reimagining the website as the place where consumers shop, socialize and learn will change how it feels to shop online.

When applying for jobs, you should NEVER have to pay to apply. You should also NEVER have to pay to buy equipment which they then pay you back for later. Also never pay for trainings you have to do. Those are scams! NEVER PAY FOR ANYTHING!
