Company Overview
Tranding is a Singapore-based Marketing Technology (MarTech) startup providing a mobile platform that enables brick-and-mortar businesses to acquire customers through performance-based affiliate marketing and word-of-mouth referrals.
The Tranding platform supports businesses across F&B, beauty, wellness, retail, and services by enabling them to activate customers and everyday social media users as affiliates, track referrals and voucher redemptions, and pay commissions only when real transactions occur. The end-to-end process — including campaign setup, attribution, redemption tracking, and payouts — is managed through the Tranding mobile app.
