Social Media News Digest

🛍️ TikTok goes IRL with its first retail store location promoting “a new kind of shopping culture”.

TikTok picked London, UK as the place best suited for their IRL store location.

However, the store is not currently open to the public, but rather to creators and merchants needing a space to mingle.

But not many would qualify with these threshold for Twitter monetization eligibility:

  • An active subscription to Twitter Blue/Verification for Organizations (for at least past 3 months)

  • 5M+ Tweet impressions in each month for the last three months

🏃‍♀️A rare case, when TikTok is trying to catch up with Meta.

Since IG had announced the ability to comment with GIFs in May, TikTok is now testing a possibility to comment with photos.

🫣 Shame on Twitter. Twitter Blue Checkmark could soon be hidden away, if the user is particularly ashamed of paying for it.

🛍️ Adding product tags to IG brand story posts just got easier.

✅ Now anyone can inflate their relevance on Meta at a bundle price.

Meta verified program is now offering a reduced price bundle package for subscribing to both Facebook and Instagram verified programs.

What about Threads though?

💰 Threads is quick to add branded content tools to the platform.
