Boost your sales by letting our algorithm work for you. Smart Showcase automatically prioritizes products that are most likely to sell well. You can easily turn this feature on or off in your Showcase settings

  1. Filtering like a Pro
Quickly find exactly what you need with all our filtering options. This includes:.
  • Post suggestions: Discover products with limited-time opportunities like free samples needing fulfillment, refundable samples, flash sales, or expiring agency campaigns.
  • Sample status or types: Filter products by "All," "Free Sample," "Refundable Sample," or "Need Fulfillment."
  • Benefits: Find products with "TikTok Bonus," "Flash Sale," or "Free Shipping" under the benefits filter.
  • Categories: Organize and filter products by their first-level category.

  1. Organize your Showcase, exactly the way you want it
Managing your showcase just became more efficient with intuitive actions and bulk editing tools. Our recent update included:
  • Adding the "Move to top" option from any products' "..." menu to bring it to the top of list. Your audience will be able to sort by "Creator's choice" or "Recommended." For the latter, the smart showcase recommendations will take precedence.
  • Making it clearer that you can "swipe to Remove" and "long press to bulk edit." Plus, on the bulk edit page, you can move several selected products to the top of your showcase while preserving their order. Note: this is disabled for products already at the top or with certain statuses.
  • Making it possible to toggle products between "Show" and "Hide" from the products' menu, so you can decide exactly what gets shown. Note: products under review, not approved, or unavailable are automatically hidden.

Tips

  • Regularly check the "Post suggestions" filter for flash sales, samples, and other products that are beneficial to post about now.
  • Use the new category filter and the ability to move product sequences to create a showcase that's intuitive and easy for your shoppers to navigate. A well-organized showcase means a smoother shopping experience, which can lead to more sales!
  • For creators with many products, the "Bulk add to collection" and "Bulk move to top" features are game-changers. Use them to save valuable time and keep your showcase fresh, relevant, and engaging without tedious individual edits.
  • The "Back-in-stock" label is your golden cue to re-engage with popular, previously sold-out products. A quick video promoting a restocked item can drive significant traffic and convert eager shoppers.
  • Highlight products with the "Free Shipping" label in your content. This can be a strong incentive for shoppers to complete a purchase, reducing friction and increasing conversion rates.
  • Consider turning on Smart Showcase to let our powerful algorithm help optimize your product order for maximum sales. This can be particularly helpful for new creators or those with large inventories. Remember, you always have the flexibility to turn it off if you prefer manual control.
