Introduction

At Spur, we believe in blending engaging storytelling with effective eCommerce. Our feature that lets you link products directly to stories is a testament to this fusion. Not only does this feature empower brands to curate a seamless shopping experience, but it also boosts conversions and engagement. This guide will walk you through the process of linking your products to your stories on Spur, amplifying the power of both.

  2. How do I unlink a product from a story?

    • Inside the story edit mode, locate the linked product and select the 'Unlink' or 'Remove' option.
