Manage products from your store on YouTube

YouTube Shopping allows eligible creators to showcase their products and official branded merchandise on YouTube. Viewers in these locations can browse and buy your products across these surfaces on YouTube:

• Your channel’s store
• Products in video description
• Product shelf below or next to your videos and live streams
• Shopping button in your videos, Shorts, and live streams
• Collections

You can organize your products to display across these surfaces in YouTube Studio or with the YouTube Studio mobile app. With channel level and individual video arrangements, you can customize the order of your products to fit your needs.

You can also showcase your products by linking to your channel store or creating and sharing collections your viewers want.
