Episode Details

The Digital Commerce Daily — May 29, 2026 Your 8-minute briefing on ecommerce, social commerce, and digital marketing. In today's episode: • TikTok Shop is going live in Belgium, the Netherlands, Poland, and Austria on June 15 — the platform's biggest single European expansion wave yet. • The European Commission has handed Temu a €200 million fine for failing to stop illegal and harmful products on its platform — the EU's most significant DSA enforcement action against a Chinese marketplace to date. • Zalando is integrating Vestiaire Collective's pre-owned luxury inventory directly into its platform, making it one of Europe's first major fashion marketplaces to blend new and resale in a single shopping experience. Fun fact: Amazon's affiliate program, Associates, launched in 1996 — making it older than Google itself — and it quietly pays out billions in commissions annually, yet the average Associates publisher earns less than $100 total before abandoning the program. The vast majority of that payout is concentrated among a tiny slice of high-traffic publishers and comparison sites most shoppers have never consciously noticed. Hosted by Marco and Klara.
