Meta and Amazon team up on new in-app shopping feature on Facebook & Instagram

Meta may have abandoned its efforts around live shopping on Facebook and Instagram, 
but the social networking company still believes in its apps’ potential as a shopping platform. 

That leads to today’s news that the company is now working with Amazon to allow
customers to link their Facebook and Instagram accounts to their Amazon account to then shop through
Meta’s social apps, where they can check out with their saved Amazon payment information and ship to their saved Amazon mailing address.

“For the first time, customers will be able to shop Amazon’s Facebook and Instagram ads 
and check out with Amazon without leaving the social media apps,” an Amazon spokesperson, 
Callie Jernigan, confirmed in a statement to TechCrunch. “Customers in the U.S. will see real time pricing,

Prime eligibility, delivery estimates, and product details on select Amazon product ads in Facebook and Instagram as
part of the new experience,” she said.

Amazon also noted that the new in-app shopping feature will be available for 
select products advertised on Facebook or Instagram and sold by Amazon or by independent sellers on
Amazon’s storefront.

To get started, it’s a quick one-time setup where customers will link their Meta account 
(either Facebook or Instagram), to their Amazon account. After this process is complete they can check out with 

Amazon from the product ad itself, without leaving their Facebook or Instagram app. 
Their default shipping address and payment information from Amazon will be used to complete the sale.

News of the deal was first leaked by a Meta and Google Ads partner, and co-CEO of Disruptive Digital, Maurice 
Rahmey. In a LinkedIn post, he explained the benefits of the deal, noting that Meta would gain better targeting and 
optimization by using information from Amazon and stores that offer Buy with Prime to show consumers ads. This 
would result in better conversion rates as well, as customers can check out more quickly. Plus, Meta will be able to 
tailor the ads messaging and product page based on whether or not the user is a Prime member, then adjust other 
information like real-time pricing or shipping estimates, as needed.

“While additional details are still scarce, this partnership could be a massive revenue opportunity for Meta, Amazon,
and most importantly, advertisers,” Rahmey wrote, adding that Meta will get more ads signal and more attributable
conversions, while Amazon will get more transactions from large discovery platforms.


In addition, Rahmeny wrote, “Because of the shared data of this partnership, this also bypasses any challenges with 
Apple’s App Tracking Transparency policy, meaning a true closed loop performance engine.”

Meta has been opposed to Apple’s App Tracking Transparency, or ATT, since the 2021 introduction of the privacy 
feature, as it claimed it would hurt small businesses that relied on its personalized ads.

Elsewhere among its e-commerce initiatives, Meta has been shifting its Shops sellers to use its own checkout
experience on Facebook and Instagram. Meta charges processing fees on those sales, except for shops powered by
Shopify (where Shopify charges them). As Amazon is processing its own payments as part of this new deal, Meta will be not changing processing fees here.

Amazon benefits from this new arrangement too. The e-commerce giant has tried over the years to create its own 
versions of social apps like Instagram and TikTok, but they have never really taken off. It shut down its 
Instagram-like service Spark in 2019, then late last year launched a TikTok - like shopping feed that supports both photos and videos. 
That service, known as Inspire, became available to all U.S. customers in May. But compared with TikTok itself, Inspire 
feels overly commercialized, lacking the more influential influencer content that drives sales.

The Meta-Amazon deal comes at a time when TikTok itself is now trying to compete with Amazon, serving as both a 
discovery engine and e-commerce storefront. With the launch of TikTok Shop, which went live in the U.S. in September
TikTok can reach more than 150 million users. Despite Amazon’s size and clout, that could be seen as a credible threat, particularly given TikTok’s reach with younger Millennial and Gen Z (and even, to some extent Gen Alpha) consumers.

메타, 인스타그램 계정으로 아마존 구매를 할 수 있다는 점에서

소비자 입장에서는 최대한 빠른 결재와 불편함을 최소화 할 수 있는 장점이 좋은 것 같습니다.

 

최근 틱톡 쇼핑의 시장 점유율이 높아지고 있고,

테무, 알리익스프레스 등의 중국 기업들의 쇼핑 시장을 잠식하고 있는 상황에

아마존에서도 빠르게 대응을 하는 것으로 파악이 됩니다.

 

두 업체의 새로운 형태의 계정 연동으로 인해

소비자들은 앱을 이탈하지 않고 지속적으로 어텐션을 유지할 수 있는 큰 장점과

인앱쇼핑 기능을 지속적으로 활용이 가능할 것으로 판단 됩니다.

 

다만, 해외 관련 내용이라

정확한 시점 및 적용 여부에 대해서는 좀 더 파악을 해 봐야 하겠지만.

해당 사항으로 진행이 된다면, 보다 빠르고 많은 제품의 세일즈 리드가 증가할 것 같다는 의견입니다.

 

메타를 세일즈 하고 있는 국내외 기업은 많이 존재하나

아마존DSP 를 국내에서 세일즈 자격이 있는 업체는 많이 있지는 않습니다.

 

최근 아마존 세미나에서 확인 된 업체로 공유 드립니다.
