How Shopee / Lazada Sellers Use LinkAsia as Their IG Bio Storefront (2026 Guide)
The most common bottleneck for Shopee and Lazada sellers: your IG or TikTok bio only allows a limited bio link, but you have 5-20 SKUs you want to highlight individually. A single "Shopee store" link drops visitors into a catalogue they have to navigate themselves — conversion rates plummet.
The fix: use LinkAsia to build a "storefront landing page" as your IG/TikTok bio link, surfacing hero products, current promos, brand story, Shopee/Lazada account links, plus a lead form and Tip Jar. 15 minutes to set up and immediately lifts CTR.
Why Shopee/Lazada sellers need a Link in Bio storefront
- Past the single-store-link bottleneck: one bio link opens into a curated multi-product landing, with per-product click analytics.
- Lower bounce rate: visitors see hero products + a brand story, which builds far more trust than landing in a raw Shopee catalogue.
- Cross-platform integration: Shopee + Lazada + your own webstore + LINE/WhatsApp customer support — all on one page, easy to switch which platform you push.
- Local-currency direct checkout (optional): accept TWD/MYR/HKD/SGD card payments directly via LinkAsia PRODUCT_CARD (Stripe Connect to your local bank). Great for limited drops or pre-orders.
The 5-step storefront setup
Step 1: Sign up and set up your brand profile
Sign up free at linkasia.me. In the Profile Header block, set:
- Store logo or brand avatar
- Store name (e.g. "Daily Greens Co.", "Penang Snack Co.")
- A one-line tagline describing what you sell and your voice (e.g. "Weekly Tainan-grown organic produce, delivered")
- Primary location + shipping range
Step 2: Add 3-5 hero PRODUCT_CARD blocks
Each product card holds: image, title, price, purchase link (to your Shopee/Lazada product page). Limit to your 3-5 best-selling or highest-story products — avoid recreating a full catalogue. For limited-drop or pre-order SKUs, set PRODUCT_CARD checkout to Stripe so LinkAsia collects payment directly in TWD/MYR/HKD/SGD without sending visitors out to Shopee's funnel.
Step 3: Add LINE / WhatsApp CTA buttons (region-specific)
TW sellers: add a LINE @ official account button. MY sellers: add a WhatsApp Business button. The lower the friction for a customer question, the higher the conversion. LinkAsia's CTA block supports custom colours, so you can match LINE green or WhatsApp green for instant brand recognition.
Step 4: Lead form for email + promo notifications
Add a FORM block asking:
- Your email?
- Which product are you most interested in? (dropdown)
- Want limited-promo alerts? (checkbox)
Export collected leads to CSV and send promo EDMs via Mailchimp / Buttondown. Shopee doesn't expose customer email lists — this is your best chance to build first-party data.
Step 5: Replace your IG / TikTok bio link
Copy linkasia.me/yourstore and paste into your Instagram bio's first link slot (IG added 5 native bio links in 2023 but profiles still show only the first directly) and TikTok's single bio link slot. In each product post caption, mention "details in bio".
Analytics and optimisation
Once on Creator plan, LinkAsia surfaces:
- Per-product click-through rate → which SKU attracts most clicks
- Page view source (IG / TikTok / other) → which platform drives most traffic
- Conversion funnel (bio click → product click → Shopee redirect) → where you're losing visitors
FAQ
Q: Can I accept payment directly in LinkAsia instead of routing to Shopee?
A: Yes. PRODUCT_CARD + Stripe Connect accepts TWD/HKD/MYR/SGD directly to your local bank account. Best for limited drops, pre-orders, and custom products. Daily SKUs still belong on Shopee (for platform traffic); use LinkAsia for high-story SKUs.
Q: What fees does LinkAsia charge?
A: 5% platform fee on Creator tier, 1% on Business, plus Stripe's standard processing fees (~2.8% + NT$10 in Taiwan). Compare with Shopee's category fees (6-15% depending on category) — LinkAsia direct checkout is meaningfully cheaper overall.
