6 Easy Steps for Setting Up a Store in Douyin Mall
Douyin Mall is ByteDance’s initiative to take Douyin (Tiktok) ecommerce to the next level. Douyin is doubling down on its Mall in conjunction with 2022 Singles’ Day, where Douyin subsidised purchasers by at least 15% and numerous vouchers to lure more shoppers in.
The subsidies and investment from Douyin should highlight how serious the platform is converting its massive traffic base into enthusiastic online shoppers. Brands selling in China who are not already on the platform should consider it as a sales channel. At China Skinny, we can help you integrate the store into your overall China Strategy and make the most of the opportunity.
