TikTok Shop Enters Gift Card Fray with Up to $500 Vouchers, Challenging Amazon
TikTok has launched digital gift cards for TikTok Shop, available from $10 to $500, just in time for the holidays. The move positions the social media giant to compete directly with e-commerce leaders like Amazon and eBay.
The e-commerce battlefield has a new contender for last-minute holiday cash. TikTok just rolled out digital gift cards for its sprawling TikTok Shop, taking direct aim at the territory long dominated by Amazon and eBay.
The feature arrives just in time for shoppers who may have forgotten a holiday gift, offering a new option from the social media giant that launched its e-commerce business back in 2023.
From $10 to $500 with a Personal Touch
According to TechCrunch, users can purchase gift cards in amounts ranging from $10 to $500. They can also be personalized with animated designs for holidays, birthdays, weddings, and other occasions. Once a recipient accepts the gift card, they have the option to send a thank-you note in return.
A Strategic Move Amid Turbulence
This launch comes during a particularly busy time for TikTok. Just a few days ago, the company officially changed ownership, it recently launched a fairly messy award show, and TikTok Shop itself has faced a deluge of products that violate its terms of service.
