Recent partnership and launch news has often been positive in tone, but market reactions have skewed toward downside moves, with more divergences than alignments.
Over the last few months, WeShop has focused on expanding its partner ecosystem and geographic reach. On Nov 20, 2025, the company launched its U.S. app following a UK pilot and Nasdaq debut, but the stock fell despite this milestone. Subsequent announcements on Dec 17, 2025 and Jan 21, 2026 highlighted new retail partnerships across travel, lifestyle, and additional brands, with mixed price reactions. Today’s electronics-focused partnerships continue this strategy of broadening categories and deepening the ShareBack™-driven ownership model.

NEW YORK, Jan. 28, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- WeShop Holdings Limited (“WeShop” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: WSHP), the world’s first community-owned social commerce platform, today announced retail partnerships with Best Buy, Samsung, Lenovo and eBay, enhancing its electronics offerings and giving shoppers even more ways to shop as demand for new televisions surges ahead of the Big Game.
As demand for televisions, sound systems, and connected devices peaks during major sporting moments, WeShop is leveraging its existing partnerships with leading electronics retailers to make high ticket purchases more rewarding. Through ShareBack™, WeShop enables shoppers to earn WePoints through everyday purchases at retailers they already know and trust, which may convert into ownership in WeShop, aligning everyday spending with long-term participation in the platform’s growth.
By leveraging its established network of electronics retailers, WeShop integrates ShareBack™ rewards directly into the shopping experience, allowing users to earn WePoints while purchasing TVs, laptops, audio equipment and other devices essential to game-day gatherings. This approach reinforces WeShop’s differentiated model of community ownership, where shopping activity contributes to potential equity participation. Through its ShareBack™ program, WeShop allows members to turn planned electronics purchases into the opportunity for ownership in the platform itself.
WeShop continues to expand access to ShareBack rewards across a broad range of retail categories in the U.S. and the U.K., including fashion, electronics, beauty, home goods and travel.
“Electronics shopping rises ahead of major moments like the Super Bowl, when consumers are actively investing in better viewing and home entertainment experiences,” said James Fox, head of commercial at WeShop. “By welcoming Best Buy, Samsung, Lenovo and eBay into the WeShop ecosystem, we’re giving our community the ability to earn WePoints, turning purchases they were already planning to make into the potential for real ownership.”
Retailers are available immediately through the WeShop app.
