Walk into every retailer with the portfolio already live.
Distributors and trade agents represent their entire brand portfolio in interactive 3D and AR: free use of every brand-signed asset they already carry, no view fees, and every retailer they sign onboarded with a single embed.
- Free use of authorised brand assets
- No view fees
- EU-hosted (Germany)
The portfolio is bigger than the sample case.
Distributors and trade agents are the commercial bridge between a brand and the fragmented specialty retail network, in the regions where a direct brand presence doesn’t pay. Their reach is only as wide as what they can show, and only as fast as each retailer can go live.
A selection in the case, a printed catalogue for the rest.
A trade agent visiting independent retailers across a region carries a sample case: a selection of products, limited by what can be lifted. Everything else is a photo in a printed catalogue. Buyer meetings and trade-fair stands have always been limited by what fits on a stand or in that case.
When the retailer signs, the brands still have to reach the shop online: a separate integration, a separate viewer and a wait on each brand’s IT team, supplier by supplier.
Distribution is a reach business. ARkid scales the reach, not the overhead.
A distributor’s job is to put the brand in front of as many qualified retailers as possible, and to make their lives easier once they sign. ARkid extends both: a portfolio that walks into the meeting already live, and an onboarding step that happens before you leave the building.
- 01
Walk in with the portfolio
Leave the printed catalogue at the office. Open the tablet, pull up every brand you represent and hand it over for AR. The conversation starts at “let’s order”, not “let me show you a photo”.
- 02
Onboard retailers on the spot
Once the retailer signs, the portfolio goes live on their shop with a single embed or a native plugin. The embed codes come out of the back office during the meeting.
- 03
Use the brand assets for free
The brand-signed 3D twin of every product you are authorised to distribute is yours to use across pre-sales, trade fairs and your own channels, at no asset cost.
- 04
Reach rewarded, not penalised
Distributor and trade-agent accounts pay no view fees. The more reach you drive across the network, the better the economics, for you, the brand and the category.

The pitch deck is replaced by the product itself.
With the portfolio in 3D on one tablet, every brand, every SKU and every colourway is on the table, at the buyer’s desk and on the trade-fair stand.
Show the product, not a slide of it.
Open Sales View on the retailer’s buying desk: every brand in the portfolio explorable in 3D, every variant configurable, every product placeable in AR on the buyer’s own desk or shop floor. Configure it to their interest and send the follow-up link home with them.
- Every brand on one tablet, every variant configurable
- AR mode: the buyer places the product in their own space
- A follow-up link, so the buyer keeps exploring after you leave
- Trade-fair stands with interactive screens and tablets
Every twin, every view. No asset cost, no view fees.
When a brand authorises you to distribute its products, that authorisation extends to the brand-signed 3D twins behind them on ARkid Catalogue. And because your job is to drive views into the network, distributor accounts pay no view fees either.
Same twin as the brand and the retailer. No asset invoice for you.
Distributors and trade agents already pay for the brand relationship in margin. Charging again for the asset would count it twice. You use the brand-signed twin under the brand’s authorisation rules, without an asset-licensing line item.
- Use the twins in pre-sales decks and partner pitches
- Embed them on your distributor portal and your own sites
- Show them on trade-fair stands and in brand-corner installations
- Hand the embed snippet to the retailers you bring on board
No view fees on distributor accounts.
Distributors earn margin on volume, so their incentive is the brand’s incentive: sell more, reach more retailers, faster. A view fee would tax exactly that. Embed the portfolio wherever it earns reach: your distributor portal, partner microsites, the retailers you onboard and your trade-fair installations.
- A multi-brand portfolio under one account
- Enterprise volumes and SLAs agreed with you directly
From signed up to live on the PDP, without an integration project.
Once the retailer signs the wholesale agreement, the whole portfolio is one embed away. No per-brand integration, no waiting on the brand’s IT team, no separate viewer for each supplier.

Live on the PDP
Every brand the retailer signed with you appears on their product pages, themed to their shop.
Brand-controlled product truth, retailer by retailer.
What goes live is the brand-signed twin: the product the buyer saw in the meeting is the product the parent sees on the PDP, and the brand stays in control of the data behind it.
- QR codes for catalogues, leaflets and shelf talkers
- Per-retailer rights, in line with the brand’s authorisation and the wholesale agreement
- Retailer-side support, asset updates and onboarding for new shop teams handled by ARkid: you stay in the commercial relationship, not the technical one
Signed off once. Current everywhere.
Bring your portfolio and your retailers. We’ll show the lift for both.
Half an hour, screen-shared. We run Sales View the way you would in a buyer meeting, then walk through onboarding one of your retailers, from embed code to live PDP.
