As a mature e-commerce platform, Shopee provides many different options and flexible sales strategies to meet the growing needs of merchants.

However, now that the Shopee platform has launched a delivery service, it has greatly facilitated the operation and management of merchants. So, let’s take a look at the characteristics and advantages of the Shopee delivery platform.
1. What is Shopee’s delivery service?

When merchants sell goods on the platform, they can choose to store their inventory in the warehouse provided by the platform, and the platform will be responsible for handling all logistics and order processing. Merchants only need to send the goods to the designated location, and the Shopee delivery service will handle all processes for merchants, including logistics, orders, returns and exchanges, and after-sales. Shopee’s delivery service greatly simplifies the operation and management of merchants and improves customer experience. It is an important service provided by the Shopee platform to merchants.

Merchants need to upload product information to the Shopee platform and store it in the platform’s virtual warehouse. At this point, merchants need to connect product inventory to the platform. This is done by connecting to the platform or through an application, which will ensure that the platform correctly calculates inventory and logistics service fees and ensures timely inventory updates.
2. The merchant ships the goods and waits for the Shopee platform to process.
After the merchant sends the goods, he needs to upload the order information to the Shopee platform and wait for the platform to process. At this time, the platform will process the order, including arranging transportation, receiving goods and allocating the shipping location. Merchants can check the status information of the order and keep abreast of the progress and situation of the consignment service.
