Our Story

The Amify Story

Amify is born! Our Founder, Ethan McAfee, begins selling pickleball paddles out of his townhouse in Northern Virginia. Amify’s original name was Pickleball Direct.

The townhouse community kicks Ethan’s business out of the complex. We rented our first office space in Alexandria, Virginia. We begin selling a variety of sporting goods, from running shoes to hockey sticks.

Amify’s reseller business grows tremendously, becoming one of the top 1% of sellers on Amazon. We decide to take our extensive knowledge of selling on Amazon to become a complete strategy, management, and operational partner for brands.

Amify raises $5.8 million in Series A funding — led by Mercury Fund, with investments from CincyTech, SaaS Venture Capital, Dundee Venture Capital and Capital One co-founder Nigel Morris

Amify grows to a team of nearly 100 Amazon experts and we prove our expertise in every category — advertising, content, platform operations & supply chain. We partner with numerous world-leading brands across everything category, from beauty to clothing to gaming.

Amify is now the leading Amazon-as-a-Service provider, with more than $200 million annual GMV under management.
