MCV speaks to GamesGrabr CEO Tony Pearce about his plans for the social media platform
Tell us about your company. Described as ‘Pinterest for gamers’, GamesGrabr is a social network for people that love games. It gives users the ability to discover, collect and play the games they love.
Not only does it act as a massive online catalogue of all things gaming, but it allows the user to curate their own collections, discover, engage, play and share them with other users with similar interests. People want guidance from their peers or people whose opinion they respect. GamesGrabr’s objective is to establish a gaming community where users can engage and follow others with the same interest as them. Every game Grab lets the user to comment and engage with the person who originally grabbed the game. Plus you can play, buy or download games in just one click.
What is your biggest success? We successfully raised crowd funding in January and launched a GamesGrabr beta in April and in only four months have had over 1m page views,
What projects do you currently have in the works? We have launched ane- commerce platform. You can buy digital PC games from GamesGrabr. For other titles we have deals with Amazon in 23 countries and Apple worldwide.

What are the biggest challenges you face? We want anybody who creates a GamesGrabr collection to be rewarded by earning money or discounts when someone plays or buys a game from their collection. Everyone can become a retailer. We have already started curating collections for high profile YouTubers to sell their favourite games and products - this is becoming a great new revenue stream for them. I want to become the biggest games merchant in the world.
