The in-app checkout option is limited to U.S.-based Snapchat users with international users redirected to a mobile website, necessary because of privacy and data requirements.

As of June 6, the Snapchat in-app stores are available to the following five influencers: Kylie Jenner, Kim Kardashian, Shay Mitchell, Spencer Pratt and Bhad Bhabie.
