This is just the beginning:
It’s totally free to be a shop on HUG. Right now our focus is on connecting shoppers with local stores. As we grow, we’ll introduce sales features like HUG storefronts, but for now there are no costs to join.
HUG is only for independently owned shops. No chains, no box stores, no exceptions. You don’t need a brick-and-mortar location, but every shop must be tied to a single Zip code so we can match you with local shoppers.
For now, shoppers are introduced to your store so they can visit and shop with you directly. Our goal is to give every shop its own HUG storefront so in the future matches can convert into buyers on the HUG platform.
Almost none. We’ll just ask you to complete a short form with your shop’s details. After that, you’re all set and ready to be matched with local gift buyers.
Founding Partners are the first shops to try new ideas and help shape HUG with direct feedback. If you’re interested in engaging more and testing upcoming products, just enter your email above and let us know.
