Some Twitter (TWTR) users may have noticed that they can now purchase some items through the social media website.
Twitter is testing out a “Buy Now” button for a small percentage of mobile users. The Buy Now button first shows users additional product details when it’s clicked on. After this, users can enter payment and shipping information to make a purchase. This information is stored after the first purchase to make additional purchases easier to complete.
While only a small number of Twitter users are currently seeing the Buy Now button, the social media website claims that it will be expanding its test to include more users. The test partners included at this point are Fancy, Gumroad, Musictoday and Stripe.
Buy Now buttons were first spotted by Twitter users in June.
A short video showing how Twitter’s Buy now button works can be seen below.
TWTR shares were up 2% as of Monday afternoon.
