PALACETEX Launches Comprehensive TikTok Shop Support Package

In a move to enhance e-commerce strategies for brands, PALACETEX Co., Ltd., headquartered in Minato-ku, Tokyo, has announced the initiation of its "TikTok Shop Operation Support Package." This service is set to roll out in June 2025, when the TikTok Shop will officially launch in Japan. The package promises comprehensive assistance from account setup to creator collaborations, video production, live streaming, LINE CRM integration, and cross-border e-commerce support.

The Rising Era of Instant Commerce

TikTok Shop represents the next generation of instant commerce, allowing viewers to purchase products immediately while watching short videos or live streams. This model contrasts sharply with traditional e-commerce, which relies on search-based transactions. Instead, TikTok Shop emphasizes discovery-driven e-commerce, where users feel compelled to buy spontaneously. The platform's design taps into viewer emotions, creating a unique selling experience that sparks interest even before a potential buyer engages in a search.

Key Features of TikTok Shop

• - Short Videos with Cart Functionality: Provides a direct purchase route from video posts with just one tap.

• - Showcase Feature: Displays a complete list of products on account pages.
• - Shop Tab: Facilitates easy discovery and purchase through TikTok's marketplace, optimizing product visibility based on user interest.
