- Wednesday, April 17, 1:20 PM Amazon (AMZN -2.3%) roundup: 1) Amazon has reportedly paid $26M to buy Evi, a British developer of a Siri alternative that users a proprietary natural language search engine and voice recognition tech licensed from Nuance (NUAN). If true, look for Evi's software to soon be bundled with Kindle hardware. 2) Amazon's Appstore for Android is now available in nearly 200 countries, including major emerging markets (the source of much of Android's growth) such as India, Brazil, and Mexico. 3) Amazon has filed a patent application for an anonymous mobile payments system; expect PayPal (EBAY) to take a close look. 1 Comment [Tech, M&A, Consumer]
- Thursday, April 11, 5:18 PM PayPal (EBAY) acquires Iron Pearl, a startup developing software that aims to boost customer retention by analyzing user activity. Presumably, PayPal wants to use Iron Pearl's to uncover ways too increase transaction volumes among existing users. In a blog post, PayPal chief David Marcus (previous) praises Iron Pearl for developing "groundbreaking tools, methodologies and intellectual property, built on a new understanding of the social and cultural factors that drive the viral spread of products, combined with new approaches to data analysis and predictive modeling" Comment! [Tech, Consumer, M&A]
- Wednesday, March 13, 1:30 PM PayPal (EBAY -3.2%) acquires Duff Research, a developer of private-label mobile apps for TiVo, Adidas, and others. "What we're really after with this deal is the innovators and experience," says PayPal CTO James Barrese; division chief David Marcus has been busy trying to overhaul the culture of the online payments giant. eBay's GSI Commerce unit already helps build apps and in-store mobile promotions for retailers. 5 Comments [Tech, M&A]
- Tuesday, December 11, 2012, 6:14 PM Google (GOOG) isn't thinking of making another bid for Groupon (GRPN), "sources close to Google" tell AllThingsD - Groupon shares soared on Friday due to rumors about a Google bid. eBay (EBAY) is also said to be uninterested. As you'd expect, CEO Andrew Mason refused to comment on the rumors at a conference today. A recent Bloomberg column made note of the Street's skepticism about a bid arriving. 1 Comment [Tech, M&A]
- Thursday, September 6, 2012, 4:43 PM EBay (EBAY) has acquired weirdly-named Svpply.com, a site that delivers a "curated," photo-centric approach to shopping, while taking a cut on referral traffic. Svpply had a mere 700K monthly users as of May. eBay isn't known for offering a very polished and intuitive shopping experience; this is probably an attempt to change that. Marc Andreessen has talked up the disruptive potential of e-commerce startups such as Svpply, whose services lend themselves well to mobile. (earlier) Comment! [Tech, Consumer, M&A]
- Wednesday, July 18, 2012, 9:17 AM PayPal (EBAY) has acquired card.io, provider of technology that allows developers to scan credit-card info using a phone's camera. Card.io's solutions have gained a following due to their ease-of-use relative to manually inputting CC data on a phone - Google can vouch for consumer unease with the latter. PayPal, which recently launched a mobile card reader, handled nearly $4B worth of mobile payments last year, and is shooting for $8B this year. 1 Comment [Tech, M&A, Consumer]
- Thursday, March 22, 2012, 4:45 PM Home/apartment rental site owner Primedia is acquiring eBay's (EBAY) Rent.com subsidiary for an undisclosed sum, thereby bringing a small amount of consolidation to a fragmented market. Zillow (Z) -0.6% AH. (PR) Comment! [Tech, M&A]
- Tuesday, February 21, 2012, 1:43 PM eBay (EBAY) is acquiring WHI Solutions, a provider of software and digital catalogs for auto parts distributors and retailers. The company says the purchase will allow it to expand the catalog of items for sale on eBay Motors, which is locked in touch competition with AutoTrader and Cars.com, and to also make it easier for sellers to list inventory. Comment! [Tech, M&A]
- Tuesday, February 21, 2012, 12:21 PM eBay (EBAY) agrees to acquire WHI Solutions, "a provider of software and digital catalog solutions for auto parts distributors and retailers." The purchase should allow eBay Motors offer improved parts selection to buyers and enable retailers and distributors to reach more customers. (PR) Comment! [Tech, M&A]
- Monday, January 9, 2012, 12:51 PM Analysts believe a PayPal spinoff could result in a 30% gain for eBay (EBAY) shares. While the Street thinks highly of fast-growing PayPal, sentiment towards eBay's Marketplaces business has been more tepid, and that's depressed the company's valuation. eBay's unwillingness to spin off PayPal, perhaps due to its synergies with Marketplaces, has been speculated as a reason for Scott Thompson's departure. 1 Comment [Tech, Quick Ideas, M&A]
- Thursday, December 22, 2011, 8:42 AM eBay (EBAY) has acquired BillSAFE, a German developer of technology for allowing online shoppers to conclude a purchase by means of an invoice (popular in Germany and certain other EU countries), for an undisclosed sum. eBay plans to integrate BillSAFE's solutions with those of its PayPal unit - its latest move to expand the arsenal of tools it provides for online merchants. 1 Comment [Tech, M&A]
- Monday, November 21, 2011, 10:01 AM eBay (EBAY -3.9%) confirms it acquired privately owned Hunch.com for an undisclosed amount to help shore up its prediction technology aimed at delivering spot-on recommendations to users. The firm says it will retain employees of Hunch including a trio of founders. Comment! [Tech, M&A]
- Thursday, July 7, 2011, 9:50 AM eBay (EBAY) is acquiring mobile payments startup Zong for $240M. Zong's platform allows consumers to pay for "digital goods and services" via their monthly cell phone bills. With Square and Google Wallet (GOOG) also gunning for mobile payments dominance, the acquisition makes strategic sense for eBay's PayPal unit. (PR) Comment! [Tech, M&A]
- Tuesday, May 10, 2011, 12:17 PM The likely winners in Microsoft's (MSFT -1.4%) Skype buy: a hodgepodge of private-equity firms, pension funds and VCs (and eBay (EBAY +2.4%), whose $620M stake goes to $2.3B - making for a total eBay payday of more than $4B). 1 Comment [On the Move, Tech, M&A]
- Monday, May 9, 2011, 10:41 PM An agreement for Microsoft (MSFT) to buy Internet phone company Skype for $7-$8B could be announced as early as Tuesday, according to sources. It was less than 2 years ago that EBAY sold most of its stake in Skype in a deal that valued the company at $2.75B. 15 Comments [Tech, M&A]
