SEOUL, Korea - Wednesday September 11, 2024 - b.stage, a global fandom business total solution, announced today (September 11) the launch of its new Sticker Shop feature within its real-time interactive communication tool, b.stage POP.
b.stage POP offers a wide range of real-time interactions, including 1:1 private messaging (TALK), live streaming, and chat. Since its launch in July last year, it has been actively used by artists such as Hwasa, Heize, Moonbyul, Crush, and actor Na Inwoo.
The newly added Sticker Shop feature enables users to download and use emoticons during interactions with artists. Going forward, b.stage plans to regularly release new stickers to enhance communication between artists and their global fandoms, offering a more unique and engaging experience.
Users can access the Sticker Shop by navigating to the ‘details page’ at the bottom of the b.stage POP chat window. Currently, three in-house-designed character stickers are available for free. In the future, b.stage plans to release exclusive stickers in collaboration with artist IPs, allowing fans to purchase and use artist-specific stickers during interactions with their favorite artists.
“We have added the ‘Sticker Shop’ to make interactions between artists and global fans more enjoyable,” stated Steve Seo, co-CEO of bemyfriends. “This feature not only supports more engaging fan communication but also represents a new business model that enables additional revenue streams for communication-based platforms. b.stage will continue to evolve its communication features, including b.stage POP, Star Story, and Community, to become a true ‘playground’ for global fan communities.”
b.stage has rapidly expanded the fandom business market, securing over 190 clients domestically and internationally across industries such as K-POP, entertainment, cultural arts, and content creation. Recently, the platform surpassed 3 million monthly active users (MAU) and continues to sustain its rapid growth.
