And the price for the software is affordable for small businesses, with basic plans starting at $25 per month.


Features include multi-channel retailing, automated email marketing, inventory control, an online storefront, and more. The company, which has 20,000 clients and is profitable, also launched an application for merchants to list inventory on Facebook.


The company has $200 million in total transactions via its SaaS and is adding 1,000 clients per month. The new funding would be used to expand the company's headcount in Sydney and Austin, Texas operations, sales and marketing initiatives and more.
