THE Meta announced the removal of live shopping feature on Facebook starting October 1.
According to a report by Mav Gonzales on Unang Balita, the company has stated that netizens can no longer conduct or schedule live shopping events on Facebook.
“Beginning on October 1, 2022, you will no longer be able to host any new or scheduled Live Shopping events on Facebook,” Meta said in a blog post.
However, people will still be able to broadcast live events using Facebook Live, but they will not be able to make product playlists or tag products in Facebook Live recordings.
Some live sellers, however, expressed hope they can continue doing live selling.
“Sana nga po ‘wag na lang po kaming pigilan na mag live selling kasi malaking tulong din po ito sa amin,” Rowena Hererra said.
(We really hope we will not be stopped from doing live selling because it is a big help for us.)
