How does Live Shopping work?
Live Shopping platforms changed the way brands and businesses interact in the eCommerce space. The technology allows brands to re-create similar customer retail experiences virtually and transact in eCommerce stores. Users can watch the live stream and interact with the seller in real-time. Inquiries can be addressed in real-time, and viewers of the stream can buy products promoted in a live stream effortlessly.

Live shopping has multiplied in recent years, particularly in Asia, and we are glad to offer this innovative technology through our partner, BeLive. We are seeing the high potential for brands and online marketplaces in LATAM to utilize their presence in social media for new shopping experiences,” according to Juliana Lucena, Co-founder of 1Ecommerce.
