Social shopping platform Piccing is the first lifestyle shopping experience that allows users to buy items based on an image. Users on Piccing can "picc" images up to five times, compare prices in real time, and buy "piccs" directly online. Piccing has generated 250 million click-outs to brands such as MANGO, ShopBop, Tesco, Expedia, Wolford, Sony, and Zappos, just a few of the 339 global brands that partnered with the platform which include Nordstrom, Tesco, Swarovski, Benefit Cosmetics, Oakley, and others.

Dirk Spielmann, CEO and co-founder of Piccing said, "Our goal is to make every item on an online image accessible and purchasable to consumers, and we're thrilled to see Piccing grow to such tremendous heights over the past year. Since the global launch of our iOS app in December, our fans have been very vocal in their request for a custom-designed Android app that allows them to experience Piccing on their mobile devices. We're elated to give hundreds of millions of global Android users the opportunity to discover, picc, and shop anywhere they go.”

The Piccing Android app is available on Google Play.
