The Creative Edition Podcast

What Is Youtube Shopping?

Emma Cortes Ellendt

If you’ve ever linked products in your YouTube description box, get ready for the next evolution in creator monetization. In this 8-minute solo episode, I’m breaking down YouTube Shopping—YouTube’s built-in shopping feature that allows creators to tag products directly in their videos.

You’ll learn:
 🛍️ What YouTube Shopping is and how it works
 📲 Who qualifies to use the feature
 📈 Why it matters for creators and the future of social commerce
 💡 How brands like Target, Sephora, and Walmart are already part of the program

With 250,000+ creators enrolled and YouTube Shorts reaching over 70 billion daily views, this is a trend creators and marketers can’t ignore.

Whether you’re a content creator, UGC strategist, or brand manager, tune in to learn how YouTube is reshaping how we shop—and how we earn—on social.
