Shop2market and Qweery introduce Searchable Product Banner

Two winners of the Thuiswinkel Innovation Awards, Shop2market and Qweery, launch a joint proposition, the Searchable Product Banner. In the banner, available in all standard formats, consumers can search real-time for products of the shop. Media Markt is the launching customer to use the banner for the VAT day campaign.

With the searchable banner, consumers can search the entire product database from the shop. Immediately when the first letter is entered in the searchbox of the banner, the banner expands with the found products including images, descriptions and filters to further refine.

Next step in decentralization online sales process
Uriel Ballast, CEO Shop2market: "The Searchable banner is the next step in the decentralization of the sales process. The customer want to orient on the place he prefers. If this is an affiliate site for children, only the relevant categories must be shown. And this is possible with the Shop2market/Qweery cooperation. This banner can also be used on mobile devices and tablets. The next step is shopping and checkout in the banner."

Hundreds of thousands of searchable products
Ramon Cohen de Lara, Manager Partner Qweery: "Online advertisements should be as specific as possible. This means that consumers will be able to look at the products of his interest. The Searchable banner offers this possibility. Because we have a live connection, the etailer can choose which categories and products will be displayed in the banner.
