Yahoo sell off starts Kelkoo gone

21.11.08

Emails are been sent from Kelkoo informing it’s been acquired by a newly formed private equity company called “Jamplant”. they will continue to power Y! Shopping, Y! Cars and Y! Travel.

Any Thoughts ?

    Acquired from Yahoo?
    Why would Yahoo be selling off the engine that powers their shopping network, even though they will still use it, surely they need to pay for that service now…

    Any info on Jamplant?

    right, so I never read the title correctly… Yahoo are selling off assets.

    But that still begs the question? Why continue to pay for the service, unless Jamplant are going to offer it to them at a dirt cheap price…

    Byron, kelkoo white label service on Yahoo is affiliation, so Yahoo is actually not charged but paid for the presence of this service on its portal ;)
