Trusted by 273M+ people who love this app.

"I am obsessed with the 'Guess You Like' feed! As someone who follows the latest trends on Xiaohongshu, Taobao is the only place I can find specific aesthetic stationery and niche C-beauty brands. The image search feature is a total game-changer—I just snap a photo of a trendy outfit I see in a boutique and find it here instantly for a much better price. Even with the wait for international shipping, the unique variety makes it my favorite shopping app."

Chloe Zhang

"The 'Omnipotent Taobao' nickname is definitely earned. I use the app for all my DIY mechanical keyboard components and specialized home organization gadgets that just aren't available in US stores. The direct-to-consumer pricing is unbeatable, and the consolidated shipping options make it surprisingly affordable to get high-quality tech gear delivered straight to my door in Seattle. It is my go-to for anything obscure or hard to find."
