TikTok Shop seller fees are reducing from 6% to 3% through EOY for all Shop Ads: - Product Shopping Ads (PSA) - LIVE Shopping Ads (LSA) - Video Shopping Ads (VSA) Interesting pivot by TikTok... Seller fees were supposed to increase to 8% by now, yet it seems margin compression is very real. When the TikTok Shop algorithm updated in the past few months, ad dollars became absolutely necessary to scale on Shop. Add on affiliate commission payouts and brands have questioned how they can gain room for profit. This 3% delta will directly be added back to each brand's bottom line. Big win for brands on TikTok Shop.

TikTok Shop's first year in the U.S. has shown both challenges and successes. It introduced social commerce to the market, driving significant sales through content-driven strategies and affiliate marketing. However, it has yet to reach its projected goals. The platform's potential is clear, but many brands are still figuring out how to adapt to its unique shopping funnel. While it excels in certain categories, TikTok Shop needs broader product diversity and more widespread user engagement to grow further. The platform's future will likely depend on how both brands and users continue to evolve with social commerce. For any queries related to TikTok Shop, feel free to reach out to us. Have a nice day! #tiktok #tiktokshop #ecommerce #digitalmarketing #sales

One of the fellow tiktok Shop affiliate Sidney Shared her Stats. She ended January with $400k in sales And $120k in commissions. I also wanted to be Affiliate myself but I guess I am good at taking care of tiktok shops for now. Content creation is another game for another day. For me TTshop has been a revolution in commerce, You watch on tiktok, you like it, everyone likes it. In no time it becomes trends, and then you see a product linked to it making a small community driving everyone crazy to buy it. I guess that's the new normal. Product + Creative UGC = SALESSSS Have you started selling on tiktok shop yet ? #tiktokshop #ugc #affiliatemarketingtips
