Filipino mega app set to disrupt e-commerce landscape

The entry of the Go Shopping Philippines (also known as GSP Mall) in the E-commerce industry is anticipated to rock the entire e-commerce world with its disruptive features. While existing virtual shopping sites are proliferating especially with the surge of the pandemic, the GSP Mall sets itself apart by the kind of User interface (UI), and User experience (UX) it provides.

Aside from the usual consumer goods such as apparels, fashion Accessories, jewelries, and the likes, GSP provides access to the other aspects of the Mall from furniture and home furnishings to food beverage, fresh produce, and other supermarket products, as well as essential services such as medical, dental, and veterinary services, architectural and interior design, carpentry, and upholstery services, sewing and embroidery, etc. Then, a huge travel Booking facility is ushered in by the Mall, in partnership with mega travel apps and tourism boards and reputable travel agencies.

Even more exciting are the pioneering features of the Go Shopping Philippines E-Commerce app which include entertainment application systems such as GFlix, Go Live, Go Cineplex, and Go TV.

GFlix is GSP’s movie on demand much like Netflix. GFlix will allow subscribers to enjoy binge-worthy shows giving access to local and international films through a mobile phone and a smart TV. With easy design features, GFlix will provide unlimited access to films and library of contents. 

GoLive is the newest live streaming platform for events, meetings, conventions, exhibitions, etc. Go live increases real-time user engagements and attracts more online audiences with fastest and most secured live content streaming, maximizing online data to provide more opportunities for various types of audiences. 

GO CINEPLEX is the 3D virtual cinema that provides a state-of-the-art digital lobby accessible for online visitors and expected guests. Go CINEPLEX has multiple halls, secured online ticketing system, high-quality audio and video setup, accessibility to the web and mobile users that can bring people together to share theater shows, live presentations and events

Besides these aforesaid features, GSP has its own online television channel called GoTV which will air a variety of TV programs on a 24/7 basis.  GoTV is the very first TV in the very first digital mall in the country, that is out to set a good start, delivering your favorite television content wherever you are using your mobile phone.

Smart Logistics is another feature of the Go Shopping mega App. Smart Logistics aggregates all the third-party couriers in the country with warehouse and delivery services in one. It covers small to medium enterprises making it the best logistics business solution cutting across all industries.

PayNETS, on the other hand, is one feature of GSP Mall that offers a one-stop-shop online payment solutions. GSP has partnered with the biggest and reputable payment centers, banks, and nonbank financial technology companies – PayNETS provides excellence in leveraging business online transactions.

Once completed later this year, consumers will have the cities, the countryside, and the islands at their fingertips. They can simply roam around and find what they are looking for, purchase anything they need and pay with cash on delivery or whatever payment system they have on hand, may it be a credit card, or using other payment portals, or a bank-to-bank transfer, whichever is convenient to them. 

Moreover, the entire GSP system, though already tremendously secure as a whole, has been designed to ensure that, in the worse scenario that there is an attempt to breach one part of the entire eco-system, only that part of the whole ecology is breached and the rest has ability to “lock” themselves from attack. The entire system architecture  has provided a resident fraud detection system beyond the usual firewalls. 

As far as its response to the market is concerned, the GSP has its own ERP system that will automate practically every enterprise process including warehousing and logistics. It also has evolved it own Analytics program that  provides the Mall and its  merchants  the facility to analyze statistics and market demographics. 

Go Shopping Philippines (GSP) Founder and CEO, Neil Garcia La-as’ determination to pursue his dream of building a huge digital mall, with all the amenities of a real physical mall and more, emanated from his frustrations in his personal experience with the existing online shopping platforms. He, oftentimes asked himself, when will people buying online be rest assured that they get their money’s worth? He goes on asking: “When will people enjoy a digital lifestyle that is very convenient, secure, and with lots of amenities and perks? when will people buying online have full satisfaction with the authenticity of the products they buy?” The fallacy and the consequential disappointment of people in buying online is what prompted Go Shopping Philippines to rise aiming to become a “force for good”. Its main advocacy is to ensure that products sold in Go Shopping Philippines are genuine and true to its promise of authenticity according to the descriptions and branding displayed on site. “In Go Shopping Philippines, we scrutinize brands and the legitimacy of their products so you are protected from fake items,” La-as expressed, “You can shop in Mindanao, Manila, the US, Europe, the Middle East, and back to Mindanao and obtain exactly the product you have paid for”.

Go Shopping Philippines is also being true to its Filipino identity. The Company’s goals include establishing cooperation with government agencies, local government units, and NGOs to promote the culture and beauty of the Philippines and its people. According to GSP’s Brand Manager, Dan B. Sola, GSP always considers the past, present and future cultural milieu of our land and our people. We are linking up with government bodies and NGOs to establish cooperation in helping MSMEs promote quality original local products, elevating these to cater to both the local and global markets. In our brand identity standards, Go Shopping Philippines highlights the beauty of our country not only in our amazing natural resources but also in the beauty of our cultural diversities as a people.  Here, not only are we able to target relatability of our content, but also enable us to address areas for the country’s growth which we can embody in our marketing efforts” Sola said.

Although the soft launch will not cover all phases of the app yet because the Food Hall, Fresh Produce and Express Services will open in the following month – (August), the app can already be downloaded starting July 16, and the general functionality of the entire system is set for smooth access to would be shoppers and merchants.
