An e-Commerce accelerator
Zbiz
Helping merchants sell online
Zbiz is an e-commerce Accelerator designed to transform your business into an iBusiness,
an intelligent online venture in the era of AI.
Zbiz was originally our first product, previously named Zemuria in Zemuria Inc.
We started that for a wide variety of reasons, as Internet proliferation has reached
new highs with the availability of low-cost Internet in countries like India in the
last few years. If we take India as an example, internet commerce is constantly growing,
and more and more people are likely to purchase from the Internet. It should not be forgotten
that more than 1 billion people in India still do not have access to the Internet at all. With widespread adoption,
Internet commerce only has one direction to move: growth.
However, this raises several questions. Do we have the infrastructure necessary to support
merchants who want to sell their products online, whether digital or physical?
Shopify was one of the first companies to solve this problem nearly 17 years ago. However, its offering
is not enough to solve the issues that the current generation of merchants and DTCs is facing.
Shopify enjoys around 83k live Shopify stores in India. Growing merchants in India have faced problems
with delivery/shipping, payment gateway
integration (due to the RBI embargo on onboarding new customers in payment gateways), etc.
The problems of the current generation of merchants and DTC players in the market are beyond
just accessing a medium to start an e-commerce store. Choices abound. Shopify is just an option.
Woo-commerce is another significant player here. They can always choose headless options or
get a digital marketing/IT shop to build a store.
What they need is help in scaling their businesses, increasing sales, finding potential
customers, and an excellent support team in growing their online business journey and,
as importantly, in establishing & verifying trust which consumers have come to rely on
in marketplace sites like Amazon/Flipkart but rarely seen on Individual sites, increasing
the possibility of scams. (Especially in India, where credit card chargeback is tough/nearly
impossible, coupled with the majority not using a credit card.)
This is why we started Zbiz as an e-commerce accelerator, where we also offer hand-held
guidance on growing our merchants' businesses and sales. We’ll be your extended IT team.
We help you grow together. We help you establish trust. You can focus on product quality,
shipping obligations, and inventory refilling. We take care of the rest.
We are experimenting with our core thesis in private beta. We are gearing up to launch a public version soon.
