Verb Technology (NASDAQ:VERB) stock is rising higher on Monday after the company announced the addition of 100 new brands to its MARKET.live livestream social shopping platform.
With this expansion, Verb Technology is showing the strength of MARKET.live. This has investors excited on Monday as it’s a sign the company could continue to expand to a larger market.
Rory Cutaia, CEO of Verb Technology, said the following about the expansion.
“VERB’s MARKET.live remains committed to providing the extraordinary and diverse shopping landscape that empowers leading brands, retailers, and creators to engage their shopping audiences on multiple social media networks, including TikTok, Facebook, and Instagram, among others.”
Verb Technology has already been doing this with a recent deal with Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:META). The Facebook and Instagram parent company recently allowed Verb Technology to nativly handle shopping in those apps.
That also sent shares of VERB stock higher on Friday when the news broke. This makes sense as it allows customers to purchase apps from MARKET.live without having to leave the Facebook or Instagram apps.
