This is live social shopping on Helm, the interest media platform. Approved sellers list real products, shoppers check out in a tap with secure Stripe payments, creators feature products and earn commission, and every kid or teen purchase waits for a parent's OK. No ads, no data sales, just people you follow, selling things you actually want.
Helm Live already has the room: chat, gifts, and your favorite creators. In-stream product pinning, a tappable product card with a buy button right inside the stream, like the one below, is rolling out soon. Coming

Live social shopping means the store is a person, not a warehouse. Here is what that gets you.
Browse a seller's catalog and check out in a tap with secure buy-now payments, powered by Stripe Connect, with sales tax handled automatically by Stripe Tax.
Apply, get approved, and list a real catalog with variants and inventory. Your audience already knows you, on Helm, you own that audience.
Kid and teen purchases don't go through until a parent approves them. Spend approvals are built into every family account, not bolted on.
Every product page shows real variants and live inventory. Buy-now checkout runs on Stripe Connect, the same payment rails trusted across the internet, and Stripe Tax calculates sales tax for you.
After you buy, your order and its shipment live right in the app, so you always know where your stuff is. And if you're a teen (or a kid with big plans), your purchase politely waits for a parent's approval first.
Sellers apply and get approved, a real vetting step that keeps the shop trustworthy. Once you're in, build a catalog with variants and inventory, take buy-now orders through Stripe Connect, and manage orders and shipments from one dashboard.
Not a seller? Creators can feature products from approved sellers and earn commission on the sales they drive. Shopify catalog sync for sellers is on the way too. Coming
Tell us what you sell. Every Helm seller applies first, that's how the shop stays family-safe and scam-free.
Once you're approved, connect payouts with Stripe Connect and build your catalog with variants, photos, and inventory.
Share your products with the community that already follows you, manage orders and shipments in-app, and soon pin products right inside your Live.
