Packed with “22 popular products for 2022” that can be purchased
on the Wish platform, the pop up is intended to give New York city
residents and visitors an opportunity to shop for their last-minute
holiday must-haves. The vending machine will include tech
essentials such as motion sensor night lights, portable power banks
and LED light up beanies.
Stock will be maintained throughout the day, and the machine
will be regularly sanitized to comply with COVID-19 safety
regulations. Shoppers will be able to pay contactless by card.
100% of sales from the vending machine will be donated to The
Robin Hood Relief Fund - New York’s largest poverty-fighting
organization.
To drive more donations from Wish and Nasdaq, shoppers are
invited to share a photo of their vending machine purchase with the
hashtag #WISH22 on Instagram or Twitter. For every photo posted,
Wish and Nasdaq will donate 5X of each purchase price to Robin Hood
Relief Fund, up to a total donation of $28,000.
As an additional way to ring in the holiday season, Wish is also
offering a one-time promo code - WISH22 - for a 22% discount
across the Wish app between Dec. 16-18.
“Wish is all about creating a fun and entertaining shopping
experience, and we’re now bringing that fun to the streets of New
York with our first-ever vending machine, packed full of 22 popular
products for 2022,” said Glenn Lehrman, VP, Marketing at Wish.
“With all sales going towards a very worthy cause, there’s no
better reason to stop by and pick up these trending Wish goods just

“We are deeply honored to partner with Wish as their charity of
choice this holiday season. Robin Hood has been fighting poverty
for 33 years and, each year, we invest in more than 300 nonprofit
partners who are on the frontlines feeding, housing, educating, and
caring for our most vulnerable neighbors. With so many facing
unprecedented challenges, every dollar will help to get families
back on their feet, get kids back on track, and get New Yorkers
back to work,” said Richard R. Buery, Jr., Chief Executive Officer
