Several potential buyers have bid on the popular social media app to ensure its continued access in the United States.

Amazon has put in a last-minute bid to buy TikTok as the April 5 deadline determining the popular video app’s fate quickly approaches. Jeff Bezos’ e-commerce giant has joined an unnamed list of buyers that President Donald Trump has said are interested in acquiring the popular app.

The competition to buy TikTok suddenly intensified after Amazon unexpectedly made a last-minute offer to purchase the popular social media platform. This surprise move makes the already complicated negotiations even messier,

According to a report from The Information, Trump plans to announce his master plan for keeping TikTok alive in the US through a new entity called “TikTok America.” The idea is to split the company between US investors (50%), existing ByteDance investors (roughly one-third), and ByteDance itself maintaining a 19.9% stake.

News of the offer emerged as Trump prepared to meet with senior officials to review the approaching cutoff for TikTok's sale.

Led by billionaire Frank McCourt of Project Liberty, with ‘Shark Tank’ investor Kevin O’Leary, this consortium offered over $20 billion, according to Fortune. It includes Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian and aims to rearchitect TikTok for user data control.
