How to List Products on TikTok Shop Using a URL

If you're already selling on platforms like Amazon or Shopify, you don’t need to rebuild your product listings from scratch on TikTok Shop.

With TikTok Shop’s “List with a URL” feature, you can import product details in minutes, helping you save time, reduce manual work, and grow your catalog faster. 📦✨

Here’s everything you need to know.


🔍 What Is “List with a URL”?

The List with a URL feature inside TikTok Shop Seller Center allows sellers to create a product listing by simply pasting a product link from another marketplace.

Instead of manually adding product titles, descriptions, and images, TikTok Shop automatically pulls this information and creates a draft listing for you. 🛍️

From there, you can review, edit, and optimize the listing before publishing.
