NEW YORK, Feb. 25, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- WeShop Holdings Limited (“WeShop” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: WSHP), the world’s first community-owned social commerce platform, allows shoppers to earn equity while they shop at leading pet retailers including Chewy and PetSmart, giving the over 94 million pet owners in the U.S. even more ways to save while caring for their animals.

Within the WeShop app, members can shop a curated selection of pet essentials, including premium pet food, treats, toys, grooming products, health and wellness items, and everyday supplies. By featuring trusted category leaders like Chewy and PetSmart in its marketplace, WeShop connects routine pet care spending to its ownership-driven model, reinforcing long-term engagement. As U.S. pet ownership remains at record levels, the American Pet Products Association (APPA) last reported that the total U.S. pet industry expenditures reached $152 billion in 2024. Pet retail represents a high-frequency, resilient category aligned with WeShop’s differentiated equity-based rewards structure.

With ShareBack™, purchases that align with lifestyle goals also contribute toward building potential equity through the platform. By leveraging its established network of retailers, WeShop integrates ShareBack™ rewards directly into the shopping experience. This approach reinforces WeShop’s differentiated model of community ownership, where shopping activity contributes to potential equity participation.

WeShop continues to expand access to ShareBack™ rewards across a broad range of retail categories in the U.S. and U.K., including fashion, electronics, beauty, home goods and travel. Through ShareBack™, members earn WePoints from shopping and referrals, which may convert into ownership in WeShop, aligning everyday spending with long-term participation in the platform’s growth.

“Pet care is one of the most consistent and emotionally driven retail categories,” said James Fox, head of commercial at WeShop. “By highlighting partnerships with category leaders like Chewy and PetSmart, we’re reinforcing how everyday pet spending can translate into meaningful savings and equity through WeShop.”

Retailers are available immediately through the WeShop app. For more information on WeShop and its growing list of retail partners, visit https://we.shop/mobile-app/ .
