The embedded checkout feature on the YouTube app allows you to sell your products directly on the platform through Cafe24. Your audience can browse and purchase items without having to leave the app, so they can continue to watch your content while they shop.
Eligibility
Currently, this feature is only available to retailers that are in South Korea and have a shop built for YouTube with Cafe24.

Frequently asked questions
Why do some products still link to my website even though I use embedded checkout?
This could be because of the following reasons:
- Products such as personalised items, pre-orders, bundles and subscriptions are not supported.
- The description that you uploaded for your product exceeds this limit. There is a 60,000-character limit for product descriptions.
- An image that you uploaded was not crawlable or is being crawled.
- Embedded checkout was turned on recently (it might take a few hours for all products to be active on embedded checkout).
