What is Sagoon?
The early-staged social commerce platform – Sagoon offers an opportunity to the user to make good money while socializing. Sagoon derives its meaning from ‘Shakuna’, which is a Sanskrit word that means – ‘good luck’ or ‘an auspicious moment’. It was first launched in the year 2009 as a search engine, but was turned into a social commerce platform in the year 2014.
Founded by Govinda Giri, Sagoon will be closing the second round of investment on 30th November, 2017 and will be launching its new application in the second week of December this year. Sagoon is the first US startup company that is accepting the payments through credit and debit cards.

The funds collected will be utilized in the development of Sagoon’s mobile app and for a few other purposes as well.
The company’s founder Govinda Giri said that they have identified an underserved market of the users who are disappointed with the current social offerings. So, they have launched a product that will provide money making opportunity to them while socializing. Isn’t it fabulous?
