Club Factory

Club Factory was a Chinese-owned cross-border e-commerce marketplace app that grew to roughly 70 million users globally, with India its largest market at around 40 million users. In June 2020 the Government of India banned Club Factory alongside 58 other Chinese apps citing data and privacy concerns, and the company withdrew from the Indian market shortly after. It was originally added to the API Evangelist network as a stub lead surfaced from Qiming's portfolio. Enrichment finds the company effectively defunct - clubfactory.com no longer serves a company site (it is parked for sale via Afternic nameservers and redirects to a /lander page), there is no live developer or API surface, no published SDKs, and no discoverable /.well-known documents.

Club Factory is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, E-Commerce, Marketplace, Retail, and Cross-Border Commerce.
