This move comes as competition in the e-commerce sector intensifies, with companies vying for consumer loyalty and market share.
Additionally, reports suggest that the U.S. version of the popular social media app TikTok is set to be released in September. This development is anticipated to generate significant interest and engagement among users, potentially reshaping the digital landscape once again.
