Season 1 Episode 17

ECOMMERCE AND M&A TRENDS

1. U.S. Ends De Minimis Exemption
Starting Aug 29, 2025, imports under $800 will no longer be duty-free. New tariffs of 10–50% could heavily impact small cross-border sellers on platforms like Etsy.

2. TikTok Shop & Live Selling on the Rise
As Amazon crowds, sellers are flocking to TikTok Shop—a creator-driven marketplace fueling viral sales. Live selling, already massive in China, is emerging as the next big frontier in U.S. eCommerce.

3. AI-Powered Scams Surge
Generative AI is driving fraud explosions—from fake storefronts and deepfake candidates to phishing and impersonations. Small businesses are increasingly in the crosshairs of this “deepfake economy.”
