Pointy

Pointy was founded by Mark Cummins and Charles Bibby in 2014. The company's device makes it effortless for a retailer to get their entire inventory online and attract customers to their brick-and-mortar location. Retailers simply plug in a Pointy device, and the complete contents of their store is displayed online automatically. The entire process involves less than five minutes work. When someone locally is searching online for something the store sells, Pointy helps them find the local store, where they can buy in person. It's an alternative to e-commerce that's simple and effective for local retailers. Pointy is used by retailers in 50 states across the US, as well as in the UK, Canada, Ireland and Australia. Pointy's local store pages have appeared in search results tens of millions of times. In 2018 Pointy signed major partnerships with Point Of Sale (POS) giants Lightspeed, Clover and Square to help get even more bricks and mortar stores online.
