Creator Widget
Creators can now shop your e-commerce site and from any Product Detail Page (PDP) directly update their Storefronts with new products. Creators no longer need to copy product page URLs and separately open their storefront to paste in the URLs in order to add new products to their collections. The Creator Widget appears on any PDP that has an active product in your catalog. From there, creators can add the product to their collection(s) and create their custom affiliate link to the view of their Storefront page that they want to share.
Custom Profile Images
Creators can change the profile image shown on their Storefront and Influencer List Block. They can choose a photo from their social media feed (where they have tagged your brand account), or from their phone/computer library.
