The business model of GameFly is similar to the DVD-by-mail subscription service Netflix and Blockbuster online. GameFly sends games to subscribers for a monthly fee. Over 8,000 titles are available.
In May 2002, Sean Spector and Jung Suh partnered with founding CEO Toby Lenk to start GameFly. GameFly later received venture capital funding from Sequoia Capital. In February 2009, GameFly acquired the gaming news and community site Shacknews, along with its download and streaming video sites. It was reported in February 2011 that GameFly had acquired MobyGames. Despite filing plans in February 2010 for an initial public offering, GameFly remains a privately owned company as of 2017.
