A new article onSocial Media Todayreports that, as part of an ongoing eCommerce push, TikTok is testing a shoppable live-stream experience.
The article says eCommerce represents an essential part of competing with the other big players in the social space. Now, the platform has headed further down that route with the launch of a deal with Walmart. The retailer will be able to showcase buyable products during a TikTok live-stream. As reported by TechCrunch:
| “During a Walmart livestream, TikTok users will be able to shop from Walmart’s fashion items without having to leave the TikTok app, in a pilot of TikTok’s new “shoppable product.” The fashion items themselves will be featured in content from ten TikTok creators, led by host Michael Le, whose TikTok dances have earned him 43+ million fans. Other creators will be more up-and-coming stars, like Devan Anderson, Taylor Hage, and Zahra Hashimee.” |
