Adways Inc. will begin providing store management support services for “TikTok Shop,” an e-commerce function that the short movie platform “TikTok” plans to launch in Japan.
In recent years, the spread of smartphones and video content has caused a continuous change in user purchasing behavior. In particular, “discovery e-commerce,” where users can learn about products through content based on their interests through social media and video distribution platforms and then smoothly purchase them, is expected to play an important role in the future e-commerce market.
One of these is the e-commerce function “TikTok Shop,” which allows users to purchase products directly within “TikTok,” and it is expected that this new purchasing experience will bring businesses and consumers closer together. In overseas countries where “TikTok Shop” was introduced earlier, there have already been cases where products have become popular due to videos and live streams by influential creators, and it is expected that a similar trend will emerge in Japan soon.
