“Since we began testing, our community has embraced this interactive and fun approach to shopping, energizing our marketplace, transforming the experience on Poshmark, and strengthening the human connections that are the foundation of our business,” added Chandra.

Poshmark plans to introduce new features to Posh Shows in the upcoming months, with a primary focus on creating fresh ways to Sell Together and inspire novel methods of live shopping and connection.
