- YouTube Shorts now lets creators place product stickers on their videos.
- Tapping on the sticker will redirect the viewer to the retailer’s website for that product.
- Viewers can see the full list of products the creator tagged by tapping on the down arrow.

The company is taking this concept and applying it to YouTube Shorts.
