Gemr Unveils New User Interface and Personalization Features for Inventive Collecting Platform
Newly-launched website Gemr (www.gemr.com),
a pioneering online social community and marketplace for
collectors, today unveils a new user interface with added features to
create a more intuitive experience. Enhancements to the site include
personal item and collection dashboards, and improved user onboarding
guidance to ensure a collecting journey tailored to the user's interests.
Gemr is the first social marketplace built for collectors, by collectors
to buy, trade, and sell, or share and discover the things they
love. Gemr is digitizing the collecting experience with a more
personalized interface and a suite of mobile features that eliminates
the hassle of navigating multiple sites to make collecting fun and easy
for experts and newcomers alike. With the Gemr iOS and Android (News - Alert) mobile
apps, adding items to a collection can be done with a snap, tag, and
post.
"These upgrades and enhancements make this the perfect time for people
who haven't tried Gemr to sign up for free and see what our social
marketplace has to offer," said Gemr Founder and CEO, Terry Anderton.
"We know that 40 percent of Americans collect something, and we've
started to see the emerging global appeal of sharing these personal
treasures in the amount of unique items already uploaded to the site."
Gemr's new interface and features, in addition to proprietary tools
already in place at launch in January 2015, have bolstered the site's
position as the first-of-its-kind social marketplace.
Features include:
-
Clubs: In Gemr
clubs, fans and collectors can group together items on
specially-designated pages to showcase collections, meet new people
who share similar interests, and discuss te things that bring them
together. Current clubs include sneakers, Star Wars, comic books, and
antiques; users are encouraged to submit new club ideas based on their
interests.
-
Personalization Interface: New user and item dashboards enhance the
Gemr experience with an easy, coherent place to manage their
collections, and infographics to track their collecting quest.
Additional features, including individually-curated and "followable"
content feeds will be introduced in Q2.
-
CrowdScore™: Gemr uses a proprietary CrowdScore™ technology to provide
sellers and buyers with real-time market feedback and valuation on
items they post.
The Gemr engineering team continues to innovate and deliver marketplace
features every couple of weeks that will help grow the community and
improve communication across the platform. People can sign up for free
at www.gemr.com,
download the mobile app in the Apple
Store and on Google
Play, and discover more engaging collector content on Gemr's social
sites at Facebook,
Twitter,
Pinterest,
Instagram,
LinkedIn,
