Wish Clips is the first of many new features that will be rolled out on Wish this year

ContextLogic Inc. , one of the world’s largest mobile ecommerce platforms, announced the roll out of Wish Clips – a new shoppable video feature that is designed to greatly enhance the customer experience and simplify the path to purchase.

Each shoppable video experience enables users to quickly gain more information about the product and envision the various ways it can be used or worn. With one tap, users can view the product details, visit the merchant’s store or add a product to their shopping cart. Buyers can also ‘like’ or report a video to Wish’s content moderation team.

Wish Clips is already available to Android users in 9 key markets1, and will be rolled out to iOS users starting in April.

The dashboard will be updated over time to include other metrics such as customer likes and watch time, in addition to a much more robust and streamlined user interface.
