Publish and manage overseas shopping products
Publish overseas shopping products: After successfully entering the market, merchants can publish overseas shopping products, and the products must adopt the “tax and shipping included” mode.
Select a port: In the list of electronic ports, select the port that Youzan has connected to for customs clearance of goods.
Sign the ID card information use agreement: In “Settings-Store Information-General Settings-Transaction Settings”, turn on and sign the agreement to ensure the normal use of the real-name authentication function.
Real-name authentication and recharge
To ensure transaction compliance, cross-border e-commerce platforms require consumers to undergo real-name authentication. Merchants need to recharge in “Application-Supporting Tools-Real-name Authentication” to enable this function. The platform provides a variety of recharge packages for merchants to choose from.
Customs clearance
General Administration of Customs 179 Announcement: Youzan will directly connect to the customs and provide the original payment data of WeChat consignment merchants.
Three-way matching: Merchants need to ensure that the order, payment order, and waybill are correct in order to pass customs inspection smoothly. Youzan provides an order API interface, and merchants can entrust service providers to call the interface to push order messages; Youzan Payment is responsible for payment message push; merchants need to entrust logistics service providers to push waybill messages.
Ports and customs areas: Youzan has completed joint debugging with some ports, and other ports and customs areas are being connected. Merchants are requested to pay attention to Youzan’s latest announcements and notifications.
Cross-border Settlement
Youzan provides cross-border settlement services to help merchants regularly settle RMB funds to overseas RMB bank accounts. In the initial stage, regular remittances will be adopted, and in the later stage, it will be iteratively optimized to allow merchants to choose order remittances independently. This service is currently in the internal testing stage, and merchants need to sign a separate contract to use it.
Youzan’s cross-border service processing solution provides strong support and protection for merchants, and merchants themselves also need to make full use of these resources through continuous learning and practice in order to succeed in the field of cross-border e-commerce. In the wave of globalization, Youzan will work hand in hand with merchants to jointly create a bright future for cross-border e-commerce.
