It’s a wonderful platform built into Shopify for merchants to find influencers and content creators to partner with. Shopify Collabs lets you build a “Partner” landing page for influencers to apply.

There are also options to place links to products right below the video, tagged throughout a live stream, or pinned within the chat section of a video.
