Overview
Bambuser is a live video commerce platform that enables retailers to host shoppable live streams directly on their websites. When Bambuser's scripts appear on retail sites, they're embedding live shopping broadcasts where hosts demonstrate products, interact with viewers through chat, and enable instant purchasing — all within the video player experience.
The platform merges entertainment content with e-commerce, creating an interactive shopping format inspired by home shopping networks but adapted for the digital era.

Should You Block This Without Consent?
