Currently, this feature is available on the recommendation and search pages, aiming to help merchants improve conversion efficiency through low-cost content creation.

What does this mean for cross-border sellers?

This new feature reduces the time and financial cost of content creation for merchants, making rapid testing possible. Merchants relying on traditional live streaming or short videos may fall behind in competition. Highest priority action: Try to post at least three product image-text contents this week to test market reactions.
