Ebay Deals iPhone App (iTunes)
Press Release
eBay (NASDAQ:EBAY) today made it easier for iPhone and iPod touch owners to shop eBay anytime, anywhere with the release of its new “Deals” application, providing a constant stream of the best deals across hundreds of millions of ebay.com listings. Available for free download on iTunes®, the Deals application features simple, intuitive navigation, customizable search features and PayPal® integration that makes check-out fast and easy.
The Deals app is the latest addition to eBay’s mobile offerings; eBay just released an upgraded version of its eBay iPhone app with new features such as social networking integration. An enhanced mobile web interface (m.ebay.com) also makes it simple to browse ebay.com on any mobile phone equipped with a web browser. All three offer consumers the ability to browse and buy on the go.“As the world’s leading online marketplace we have insights into how people really want to shop … and they clearly want to shop on their phones,” said eBay Marketplaces President Lorrie Norrington. “It’s apparent that consumers want to shop for what they want, when they want and WHERE they want, and that’s not necessarily when they’re sitting in front of a computer or even walking through a store. This eBay app for the iPhone is the ultimate tool to put great value and selection at their fingertips on the go, wherever they are.”Additionally, a special ‘12 Days of Deals’ will begin this Friday, November 27. eBay’s first of the ‘12 Days of Deals’ will go live with a Samsung Netbook N120-12GBK. Other exclusive Mystery Deals will be featured each day until Dec. 8.
“A deal means something different to everyone,” continued Norrington. “Our new Deals app allows you to create and personalize your own deal searches on the fly. This means you’ll never miss a deal … and the deals will find you. eBay’s new and upgraded iPhone offerings take advantage of typical smart phone features such as email, voice, alerts and orientation detector, all of which help shoppers find, share and buy from ebay.com while they’re mobile.”
