Frequently Asked Questions

What is a good conversion rate for livestream commerce?

Conversion rates for live commerce in Vietnam typically range from 1–5%. New streamers often see 1–2%, while established streamers with loyal audiences can achieve 3–8% or higher. Product type matters too — impulse-buy items like snacks and cosmetics convert better than high-consideration purchases.

How do I calculate ROAS for my livestream?

ROAS (Return on Ad Spend) is calculated as Revenue ÷ Ad Spend. A ROAS of 3x means you earned 3 VND for every 1 VND spent on ads. For live commerce, a ROAS above 3x is generally considered profitable, though this depends on your margins.

What costs should I include in ad spend for livestream?

Ad spend for livestream should include TikTok/Shopee paid promotion costs, influencer or KOL fees if applicable, and any platform boost fees. Don't forget to factor in the cost of the streamer's time and any production costs for a complete picture.
