retailers from the US and UK have the ability to connect their online stores to TikTok Shop for seamless selling to millions of users.
TikTok is the fastest-growing channel for discovering new brands and products. It has millions of users who are active on a monthly basis and over 6 billion visits to the hashtag #TikTokMadeMeBuyIt alone.
TikTok Shop lets TikTok users buy from merchants via the app directly eliminating the steps required from discovering to making a purchase. Since launching TikTok Shop in the US and UK thousands of transactions are made using the platform for social commerce.
This makes it much easier than ever to sell and promote to a hugely at-tuned crowd.
Merchants are able to share their Woo catalog to TikTok Shop -- eliminating the time and effort required to add items manually. After the sync is complete, sellers can include those items in the TikTok Shop, plus use the existing images and descriptions to make appealing native ads such as Live Shopping ads or Videos Shopping Ads. Purchases made through a TikTok Shop are synced back to Woo.
Woo was one of the first ecommerce platforms to integrate with TikTok Shop.
"Woo is committed to unlocking the sales channels and opportunities for advertising to help our merchants achieve their number one goal -increasing sales" declared Paul Maiorana, Woo CEO. "We're looking forward to the option for users to try native checkout on TikTok with their Woo stores on a single dashboard."

"TikTok Lives has been extremely successful in building our followers as well as bringing us more active and passionate customers -- now we can tag products and even allow purchases during Lives. Our TikTok followers have grown by 15,000 over the course of one month that we've had TikTok Shop enabled, and less than 10 percent of our business has come through TikTok Shop from the moment it went live."
