When the social platform is disconnected from the commerce platform there is a chasm the data cannot cross. For social media platforms that have built a model around advertising, this is a sales problem. They cannot say with accuracy the conversion percentage or ROI they can expect from advertising within the network.

Only when the chasm is closed, and payment and fulfillment is seamlessly baked into the social platform, can you close the loop and turn low value advertising into high value transactable commerce.
