GamePoint Launches First Complete E-Commerce Service for Creators

NEW YORK - May 19, 2021 - PRLog -- GamePoint,  a new global marketplace, helps creators and other entrepreneurs focus on marketing without detracting from their creativity.

Founder and CEO David Ewing on Tuesday announced the marketplace's launch.

GamePoint has no upfront cost to get set up and provides a complete e-commerce platform that allows entrepreneurs to build, market, and bill for services. Users' businesses range from yoga instruction and sports lessons to small gyms, personalized instruction, and nonprofits.

The creator economy has grown in the last few years, particularly during the pandemic. Advances in internet and cloud computing technologies make it easier for people to market and monetize their skills and passions through online platforms, according to David.

GamePoint differs from other marketing platforms and standalone commercial website building platforms, David said. His target users are creators that typically are small shop owners, people who have home businesses, side hustles, and other professional skills on which they want to build a business.

"They do not typically have many resources to build sophisticated websites or apps that are ready for digital commerce. Nor can they spend a lot of money hiring advanced management consultants and marketing experts to bring traffic to their websites," he told the New York Times.

How GamePoint Works

Users follow a two-step process to create their digital marketplace. First, they provide a description of their business. Then, they upload photos and videos that highlight their product and services.

To enhance marketing efforts, GamePoint makes it easy for creator merchants to instantly e-commerce-enabled existing websites and social media pages by linking to the GamePoint digital shopping cart via simple plugins. The creator platform also enables offline shops to accept online orders and payments through QR codes.

Interactive live-streaming channels let creators and small businesses capture their creativity. They can engage, market, and sell directly to their users.

Another feature lets creator merchants live chat with potential and existing customers. This ability makes it easy to maintain connections with customers through community updates.

The company charges a fee for each completed transaction originated from ItsGamePoint.com. This includes credit card processing fees. The standard fee is either commission-based, for as low as 10 percent of sales, or a monthly subscription starting at $19.99, depending on the size and type of business, according to David.

"We understand the small business environment is tough [for creators], particularly during the pandemic; we want to empower its success by providing the ideal technology platform and pricing to minimize their risk," said David.

GamePoint, a Delaware corporation, has its main office in Dallas, Texas.
