MobiCart apps
MobiCart online stores can serve as stand-alone applications without integration into a company's website, or they can be integrated into a company's website. Users set-up independently and run their own online stores for mobile devices. Adding more products than the free plan allows results in a monthly subscription fee to keep the shop open. The stores initially accepted their payment from customers through PayPal, before partnering with the company ZooZ. In May 2012 the company expanded its software to include the development of apps for Android devices and iPads. In 2012 it also launched a HTML5 Web App, which allowed it to be used on next-generation mobile devices. The company has been the recipient of several awards for its mobile apps.
