More than 100,000 sites use KickApps, including major media companies (e.g. NBC Universal, The BBC, H&R Block, and Scripps Networks) and a wide variety of niche websites.[3] The KickApps company was acquired in January 2011 by KIT digital. Then, in December 2012, the company was acquired again by Perfect Sense Digital.
