E-commerce has been fully integrated into our lives, and social media plays an increasingly important role in today's digital age. With the introduction of TikTok's new shopping feature – TikTok Shop, there have been new breakthroughs in the way of using social media for e-commerce activities, and social e-commerce has also ushered in many challenges. This time we will analyze the essence of TikTok Shop, its differences from Douyin's small yellow car, and why operating TikTok Shop in the UK requires a native residential IP agent and its specific process.
TikTok Shop is a new feature of TikTok that allows users to sell goods on the platform. It allows users to display and sell goods directly in videos, effectively integrating social media and e-commerce to bring users a more convenient shopping experience. In contrast, Douyin's small yellow car is a retail platform that provides integrated online and offline services. After users purchase goods on the platform, they need to wait for the goods to be delivered to their homes.
The need to use native residential IP proxies to operate TikTok stores in the UK stems from the TikTok platform's review and restrictions on the store registration areas. According to the regulations of each region, only certain specific areas can open stores. TikTok requires that the actual address exists in the area where the store is opened, and the native residential IP proxy can simulate the IP address of the real address in the area. This allows a store to be successfully opened in the area without being in the area.
If you plan to open a UK TikTok store in China using a native residential IP proxy, you need to follow the following process:
1. First, purchase a native residential IP proxy service, making sure to choose a reliable and stable service provider, such as Kookeey Proxy
2. Set up the TikTok app using the IP address and port number in the proxy service, and then connect to the proxy service. Please note that the proxy type is set to "Native Residential IP" to ensure that you are connecting to the real residential IP address.
3. Next, proceed to verification. TikTok will send a verification message to your proxy address via email or SMS. You need to reply to the confirmation message as required to verify the authenticity and validity of the proxy address.
4. After the verification is valid, you can select the UK as the registration location of your store in the TikTok app. Next, TikTok will review the store in accordance with UK regulations, and you can officially open a store after the review.
5. Select the United Kingdom from the list of supported regions for TikTok, and then use the Native Residential IP Proxy tool to connect to a UK server.
6. Log in or register an account in the TikTok app and select the United Kingdom as your account location when registering. If you already have an account, you can change your location in the settings.
7. Enter the TikTok store function and set the store information, including store name, LOGO, product information, etc.
8. Set relevant taxes, refund policies, shipping methods, etc. according to UK regulations.
9. Set up payment, select the appropriate payment method, and then submit and review your store information. Make sure the information is authentic and reliable. Once it is reviewed and approved, you can start selling products.
However, when using Kookeey's native residential IP agent to open a TikTok store, you need to pay attention to and comply with the regulations of the TikTok platform and relevant British laws. For example, you are not allowed to sell counterfeit goods and false information, and you must pay relevant taxes, etc.
