The Airbnb of retail promises to make the task of finding pop-up shop space dead simple.
Starting Tuesday, San Francisco-based startup Storefront will allow small businesses to instantly reserve short-term retail space through a new feature called “Instant Book.” The service lets businesses pay for shop space upfront and bypass the vetting process. Once the booking has been made, the party renting out the space sends a verification within 72 hours.
Storefront hit the San Francisco scene in March 2013 before expanding to New York last June.

They can list their spaces on Storefront’s website for free and the company offers short-term general insurance.
