About us

Reporo was built by a small team based in London England. We are dedicated to building dedicated mobile social networks, and not only that but actually realising an sustainable business from the endevour.

Over the last few years we have built up a large user base of enthusiastic followers. We did not however start out with a plan for mobile social networks, we were intially trying to build a mobile shopping application. Whilst the product went to market and successfully processed thousands of transactions we seemed to be hitting the market a bit too early - it seemed people really were not ready for mobile shopping.

Reporo is a corruption of the latin word to transact, Repora.
