The new feature comes with a variety of tools that enable a brand to sell their product directly through TikTok.

TikTok Shop will appear as a separate tab inside the brand’s profile. This can be used by the brands to showcase their products and users will have the option to directly purchase the product from them. However, users will be able to discover products through in-feed videos, LIVE streams, and a search bar.
The company has also launched an add-on service called – “Fulfilled by TikTok”. Which is their own logistics solution for business owners to help them in shipping their products to the customers.
