People often spend more time on their phones than on their computers, which is why this new e-commerce platform is looking to change the way people buy things online. Fetch is a personal buying assistant that allows you to purchase products by doing away with coupon hunting and filling out long lists of personal information fields.
Fetch's buying assistants will look for the item you input and will purchase it on your behalf at the best price. To use the e-commerce platform, users enter the details of the thing they want to buy, making note of brand, color, shipping speed, size and quantity. Then submit this information along with a picture, text or voice note. If you have a rough idea of the cost, there is also a buy now option. The personalized shopping app is supported on iOS and android mobile devices.
