[Brokerage Focus] CITIC SEC: With the peak period of social activities like the Spring Festival approaching, the activity level of WeChat mini-stores on both the supply and demand sides is expected to increase.

Jinwu Financial News | The research report from CITIC SEC points out that starting from January 1, WeChat Mini Stores launched a new "Private Domain Incentive Program". This program provides a reduction in technical service fees for transactions completed in group chats, Moments, public accounts, and other social and private domain scenarios. This measure is expected to promote active actions from merchants in terms of onboarding, operations, and pricing. As the peak period for social activities, such as the Spring Festival, approaches, the activity on both the supply and demand sides in WeChat Mini Stores is expected to be enhanced. WeChat's active participation in the social e-commerce field indicates that the e-commerce scenario is poised for new changes and opportunities. Brands that can quickly adapt to the new traffic trends are expected to be the first.
