About LetyShops

LetyShops is the largest cashback service in Ukraine and CIS. Since 2019, the service began its international expansion, entering the markets of Spain, Germany, Poland, India, and Latin America.

The company hopes that the investments will help LetyShops to increase profits by one-third through more aggressive scaling.

“During 2 years of working in new markets, LetyShops not only has become a new player, but also a leader in Spain, Poland, and Latin America. In June 2020, the company’s profit from the ‘new markets’ has already exceeded 30%,” comments Igor Gnatovsky, CEO of LetyShops.

We are now focusing on further growth. We aim to strengthen our positions in Spain, Poland, and Latin America, to outperform competitors in Germany and India, and to enter new markets.”

The service is currently available in seven languages (Ukrainian, Russian, Spanish, English, Polish, German, Portuguese), cooperates with 2,400 online stores in almost all categories of e-commerce, and hosts more than 12 million users.

According to SimilarWeb, LetyShops website was visited by 4 million people in May 2020.
