    [Background for Launching "FanSpot byGMO for TikTok Shop"]

    GMO UniteX and GMO NIKKO have been offering mechanisms to connect users with brands through platforms like TikTok, using services such as “FanSpot byGMO for TikTok.”
    With the recent arrival of TikTok Shop in Japan, demand for direct commerce experiences—where social media “discovery” directly leads to “purchase”—has surged.
    However, for many brands and manufacturers, operating and monetizing on TikTok Shop requires high expertise, and “selling” remains a significant challenge.
    To address this, the new service offers a comprehensive system directly tied to sales, using a performance-based model with minimal upfront costs.
    Beyond providing the tool, both companies collaborate closely to build a full-fledged “selling framework” that includes planning, creative development, promotion, and reporting.

    [Future Outlook]

    Moving forward, we will promote trial adoption of the service to brands, manufacturers, and D2C businesses considering e-commerce sales via TikTok Shop, leveraging the existing networks of both companies. Our aim is to standardize the service through the creation of proven success cases.
    We also plan to build a globally competitive promotional framework by pursuing partnerships with leading overseas companies and further advancing our operational model.
