  • Create Your First Shoppable Post

    Shoppable Post is kind of post that allows your customers and audiences shop and pay right under your FB & IG feed, and there is no human effort required.

    Since Instagram does not allow us to add any links to either the posts or stories, what our audience can only do is to comment under the post or DM us to ask for links and price about the products.

    Until we have Biobiogo, we have been loosing customers because we could not respond to those comments and DM in the right time due to the time differences and the holidays.
