Limited group of early members will help grow the community-owned shopping platform while earning enhanced rewards and experiences
LONDON, March 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — WeShop Holdings Limited (“WeShop” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: WSHP), the world’s first community-owned social commerce platform, today announced the launch of the WeShop Founders Programme in the United Kingdom, a new initiative designed to empower early creators and members across the U.K. to help grow the platform and build communities around trusted recommendations and a more rewarding shopping experience.
The Founders Programme will be limited to just 1,000 members in the U.K. Those accepted to the Founders Programme will receive double the standard referral rate, along with invites to exclusive events, content, competitions, and opportunities to engage directly with the WeShop team as the platform continues to expand.
Interested applicants can apply through a dedicated Founders Programme landing page on the WeShop website, where submissions will be reviewed by the WeShop team.
“WeShop was built on the idea that the people who create value in a shopping network should share in that value,” said John Garner, Founder of WeShop. “The Founders Programme recognizes the early creators and members helping build the platform and reflects our vision of community ownership, where people are active participants in how products are discovered and shared online.”
“Being part of the early WeShop community has been incredibly rewarding,” said Meg Johnson, a U.K.-based Founding Member. “What started as sharing products with friends has turned into building a real network of people who trust each other’s recommendations. The Founders Programme is a great way to recognize and accelerate that.”
“For me, WeShop feels like building your own company within a larger community,” added Michelle Jenkins, another early member of the platform. “The more you invest in helping others discover the platform, the more you see that community grow, and everyone benefits.”
By launching the Founders Programme in the U.K., WeShop aims to accelerate community-led growth while giving early adopters the opportunity to play a foundational role in building the platform’s next phase.
Applications for the WeShop Founders Programme are now open.
