About Us Contact Us

As a news outlet, you deserve more revenue from the audiences you’ve built.

WeCart® gives your news outlet a white-label online store and a way to earn a portion of each sale. Imagine connecting the functionality of Amazon and Etsy with your audience.

What's the opportunity here?

Consider three factors:

  1. News organizations
  1. Retailers
  1. Market opportunity

Both industries are ready for something better. So we’re transforming news outlets from mere advertising platforms to fully functioning retailers.

How does it work?

Our launch will be split into two phases. The first phase has a local focus, establishing your store as the place for local products and services. This lets you maintain or even recoup lost revenue in local advertising.

The second phase will be about growing a new revenue stream by offering more products typically seen in big-box stores.

As the first phase is underway, WeCart® teams will recruit a slate of American brands to fill every store in our network with thousands of trustworthy products.

Think of them as hundreds of new clients delivered to your door, national brands now suddenly participating in funding your newsroom.

With WeCart®, you won’t have to warehouse merchandise or ship anything at all.

Our platform keeps prices competitive with Amazon, and since we’re in this together, we split the product markup with you half and half.

Why will this work?

You’ve already built your audience, and that audience trusts you. WeCart® gives you another way to capitalize on these strengths.

By using both a storefront interface and in-story advertising, our tools help target loyal readers and impulse shoppers alike.

And the best part? Your earning potential is much higher with WeCart® than with third-party clickbait services.

What about subscribers?

If increasing subscriptions is your top priority, WeCart® can help there too.

With our platform, you can offer subscriber-only discounts on your store and we’ll even split the cost with you 50-50, just like the profits.

Why? Because we believe in the work you’re doing. We built this company to empower news outlets like yours.

The bottom line is something you already know: Your community needs you. There is no substitute for reliable local journalism. By trying something different, by working together, we can forge a path forward.

We can.

We will.
