Social commerce seems to have stopped being a priority for Instagram

Sales of products and services on Instagram gained momentum during the pandemic. In May 2020, the social network launched a new experience that allowed many businesses to stay afloat and make transactions on their domains much simpler. This experience gave anyone the option to create their own store by tagging products in their photos and relying on Meta's payment system to prevent the buyer from having to leave the application.

A few months later, in November 2020, the jamaica phone number data store button became even more prominent and moved notifications to the top bar , something that made quite a few users very angry as it made posting images less relevant.

The exact date when the shop button will no longer be accessible to all users of the social network is not yet known . Its disappearance will most likely be gradual and will last for a period of several weeks. Its disappearance has not yet been confirmed by Meta.

Instagram was under fire this summer for its strenuous efforts to become a TikTok clone. Angry criticism from Kim Kardashian and other high-profile influencers caused Instagram to shelve its plans to become even more like the Chinese-born social network , though it stressed that it would continue to prioritize short videos given the popularity of the format.
