Meta no longer accepts credit cards, ChatGPT is converting better than organic search, and Amazon Multi-Channel Fulfillment gets key updates plus more buzzing news in this week’s episode!
We’re back with another episode of the Weekly Buzz with Helium 10’s Principal Brand Evangelist, Carrie Miller. Every week, we cover the latest breaking news in the Amazon, TikTok Shop, Walmart, and E-commerce space, talk about Helium 10’s newest features, and provide a training tip for the week for serious sellers of any level.
Meta Ends Credit Card Payments for DTC Ad Accounts—Amazon Next? https://www.ecomcrew.com/meta-ends-credit-card-payments-dtc-advertisers/ A new analysis of 94 e-commerce sites found ChatGPT referral traffic converts 31% higher than non-branded organic search (1.81% vs 1.39%), driven by stronger buyer intent from AI-assisted shoppers. While AI traffic volume is still small, it’s growing fast, making AEO/LLM optimization (structured content, FAQs, and schema) an early-mover advantage rather than a replacement for SEO. Helium 10’s new Listing Builder AI is now available to Diamond members and is built to save major time by pulling keywords from multiple sources and generating an optimized listing with AI—complete with an SEO score and the option to match the tone/style of a listing you like.
