What’s happening at Wish?

Wish is actively transforming their marketplace. In 2021, they started a fresh organizational chapter, with a new leadership team of experienced executives who bring strong backgrounds in retail and technology.

Over the past year, and rolling through 2022, the Wish team has worked diligently to improve their platform with merchants in mind. The new tools are integrated into the merchant experience and are designed to help grow businesses like never before. We’re thrilled to share more about the transformation and how they plan to help merchants succeed.
