The Phooks is back 🌟

Max is here. Long time no see! I have some words to share today.

During our first anniversary in April, while the whole world was suffering the first spike of the pandemic, The Phooks was down for another reason: our reconstruction took much longer, and the relaunch turned to be much more complicated than we were able to expect.

The first launch attempt in March turned into an endless cycle of international banking services submissions, reviews, and declines. We were looking for a proper payment provider with fair fees to keep our commissions, prices as low as possible, and to start accepting cards finally. It took enormous effort and a lot of time, but, whatever it takes, the result is worth it.

Now I’m happy to show you the whole new platform which will help us to stay flexible and become more convenient. There are many great things like new catalog and filters, a way better search, convenient cart, shipping rates calculation, wishlists and extended personal account functionality, and, finally, safe and smooth card payments.

The Phooks is now running under MNNGFUL OÜ an Ltd-kind of a company registered in Estonia. MNNGFUL will become a platform for projects around visual arts and publishing, supporting small and independent forms of creativity.

There are many ideas in mind, and some of them are in progress. While the base is there, I believe we’ll get many exciting things to the world together. Saying “we” I mean us, you and me: those who help with The Phooks from the inside (more news about our team will come soon) and you who support what we create.

We’re grateful for all your support since and patience in some cases. Everything helps: ordering from The Phooks, sharing your feedback, or a word about us to others.

Cheers,
Max
