Moreover, merchants will be able to add product videos to their catalogues to showcase their products in depth and help customers make a more informed purchase based on seeing a particular product in motion.
Finally, Pinterest has also announced a new Shop Tab for the business profiles of merchants, enhancing the overall consumer experience and making it easier for brands to advertise and display their merchandise.
