Have you ever wanted to sell something online? You probably have and because of it, we’re introducing you to TinyPay.me. It’s a simple service where you can start selling your stuff in just a few seconds.

To start selling with TinyPay.me, you just need a PayPal account and connect the two. After that, you can set the quantity, shipping costs etc. for every item you want to sell. We talked with Richard Straver, Co-Founder and CMO of TinyPay.me at TechCrunch Disrupt.

What is new at TinyPay.ME?

TinyPay.me is still the easiest way to sell physical or digital goods online. What’s new is the fact that anyone can now create white-label versions of our platform. We call this
functionality: marketplaces. With a marketplace you allow others to start selling on your website, community or application. If you wish you can charge a percentage of each sale in order to monetize.

Why did you actually choose .ME domain?

We love the .ME extension because TinyPay.me is all about you as a seller. It takes only a tiny effort in order to get you paid for the products or services that you offer. That’s why!

TinyPay.me is really easy to use

We just learnt that you moved to San Francisco. What do you expect from Bay Area?

As you all know the Bay Area has been a magnet for ambitious people and business’ from all around the globe. We hope to be able to find and create synergy with these people and business’ in order to grow.

What about competition?

There’s a lot of competition in the e-commerce space. But no one is offering what we offer:

  • Setup your shop within 60 seconds;
