All UK shops will be allowed to offer click and collect as a service after government ends need for them to apply for planning permission

We are turning local corner shops, dry cleaners, hairdressers, gyms, schools, nurseries, coffee shops, you name it, into local parcel drops. This means that instead of waiting in for your on-line deliveries, you can pick them up when you go for a coffee or drop your dry cleaning off!

CornerDrop provides a click and collect service that can be used by all online retailers, enabling their customers to collect parcels from a local drop point early ‘til late, 7 days a week. No more letterbox cards, lost Saturdays or lunchtime queues. We’re delivering flexibility and convenience.

CornerDrop is live for business. Since we launched, we have been signing up shops & customers. It's free for any shop/local business to offer CornerDrop, we pay them & it's a great way of increasing footfall. Over 500 shops in the UK are now CornerDrops & AGE UK is our first national chain to sign up.

Our crowdfunding campaign is now live on seedrs & is open for investors. We are SEIS approved, which means tax relief is available.

So if you fancy becoming a part of one of the fastest growing click & collect solutions, then why not invest?!
