💡 Feature Overview

Linking is one of the most important tools for TikTok Shop sellers. It allows you to connect your TikTok Shop, individual products, product categories, or collections to your videos, turning them into shoppable content. Now, viewers can explore and purchase your products with just a few taps.

• Turn engagement into sales: Every video with a product link is a direct shopping opportunity. When viewers see a product they like, they can tap the link and buy instantly, without leaving the app. This reduces friction and increases conversions.
• Promote multiple products at once: Instead of making one video per product, you can link your entire shop, a product category, or a themed collection. This lets you showcase multiple items in one video, which is perfect for launches or seasonal campaigns.
• Increase brand visibility: Shoppable videos help your brand stand out while driving more traffic to your shop. The more you link, the more opportunities you create for customers to get to know your brand.
