Hard to believe it's already been a year since Thingtesting was acquired by ShopMy! We wanted to share a quick update on what's new, the integrations we've launched, and what it means for brands on Thingtesting.

Thingtesting Rewards, powered by the ShopMy affiliate network

The first feature we launched with ShopMy was Thingtesting Rewards. When a Thingtester buys through an affiliate link with Thingtesting Rewards, your affiliate commission is held as a "reward" to drive high-quality reviews from our community of reviewers post-purchase. Once the tester leaves a verified review, they can cash out their reward via Venmo or PayPal.

Thingdrop is back

We also brought back our community's favorite feature: Thingdrop! Thingdrop is our weekly limited product testing campaign featuring one brand with increased rewards. Thingdrops are designed to drive both brand awareness and review growth for emerging brands and new product launches.

When you buy a Thingdrop, you get: a newsletter feature highlighting your campaign, an Instagram story + feed post, targeted emails to high-intent shoppers, and verified reviews on purchases driven via the Thingdrop.

We are booked out through May. Reach out to [email protected] to discuss and schedule your Thingdrop!

Reviews, syndicated

Now that we launched product-level reviews, we decided to bring a new, highly requested, feature to brands: review syndication! Review export functionality is exclusively available for brands that are ShopMy customers, just email [email protected] to discuss more.

If you aren't on ShopMy yet, we'd love to share more about our partnership.

Finally, as always:

You can always submit a brand to Thingtesting here or email us about your upcoming launch: we handpick brands to amplify to 500k+ Thingtesters that are eager to know what's new each week.

If you are already a brand on Thingtesting, claim your page and keep it up to date with re-freshed imagery, brand descriptions and engaging with the reviews as you grow. You can follow along your brand's growth on Thingtesting in your admin dashboard.

If you have any feedback on these new features or ideas on what you'd like to see from us next, we're just an email away! [email protected]
