The amount of friends and followers people have across their various social media accounts has long been considered valuable. But now, a pop-up in New York, opened by OnePiece, is letting customers literally pay with their social media followers.

Pop-up shops are a popular way of drumming up interest and social media traffic for brands, but is the formula in need of some rejuvenation? Cheap Monday seems to think so with the announcement of its ten-minute pop-up shop to mark its 10th anniversary.

Boxpark is the world’s first pop-up shopping mall. Appearing in a goods yard next to Shoreditch High Street station this August, the new shopping complex will feature a varied mix of retailers to cater to all budgets, from mainstream brands to the more niche.

In 2013, the retail pop-up sector generated over £2 billion in turnover and employed more than 23,000 people. These temporary spaces are now a mainstay on British high streets, but are people tiring of them? And how can retailers make sure customers keep popping back for more?
