Wish platform shipping process and precautions: key steps to improve sellers’ competitiveness
As a world-renowned cross-border e-commerce platform, Wish platform provides sellers with a wealth of shipping methods and tools. This article will introduce in detail the specific steps of shipping on the Wish platform, and provide some practical suggestions to help sellers optimize the shipping process and improve their competitiveness.
1. Shipping steps on Wish platform
Log in to Wish merchant platform
First, sellers need to log in to the Wish merchant platform to check whether there are new orders that need to be processed.
View notifications
The system will remind the seller that there are new orders that need to be shipped through the email address provided by the seller. In the order menu, you can see a red prompt indicating that there are pending orders.
Enter the list of pending orders
Pending orders will be displayed on the “Orders” – “Unprocessed” page. Here, sellers can browse specific order information, contact users, edit shipping addresses and mark shipping operations.
Single order marked for shipment
Find the corresponding order, click the action button at the far right of the row where the order is located, and then click Ship. Fill in the package size or select “Skip this step”, select the logistics carrier and fill in the logistics order number, and click “Next”.
Multiple orders marked for shipment
After selecting multiple orders, click “Shipping Selected Items” at the top of the unprocessed order page, fill in the logistics information for multiple orders, and then click “Shipping All”.
Bulk shipment using CSV file
For large orders, sellers can mark shipments by creating a CSV file for batch editing. After uploading the file, map the order attributes in the batch editing file to the Wish platform, and click “Submit” after confirming that the information is correct.
2. Wish platform delivery mechanism and third-party overseas warehouse
The Wish platform itself does not have an actual shipping warehouse. Instead, it provides buyers with a variety of shipping options by establishing partnerships with third-party partners (such as logistics companies or overseas warehouse service providers). Choosing a third-party overseas warehouse for delivery can not only greatly shorten the transportation time of goods, but also reduce possible taxes and delays.
3. Delivery requirements and precautions
Control delivery time
The Wish platform requires that all orders must be shipped within 5 days, otherwise they will be automatically refunded and related products will be removed from the shelves. Therefore, sellers need to arrange delivery time reasonably to ensure that orders can be completed within the specified time.
Declaration of sensitive or special products
For sensitive or special products, sellers must correctly identify and declare them in WishPost, and package general products and sensitive/special products separately and send them to the A+ Logistics Plan warehouse. Sensitive or specialty products that are not properly declared will be subject to additional processing fees.
Stocking plan
Sellers should make reasonable stocking plans based on product performance and data analysis. It is recommended to carry out inventory via air freight. A single batch of 200-500 pieces (about 10 SKUs) is a relatively safe quantity.
4. Delivery form and logistics label
Get the shipping order
Merchants can easily obtain delivery orders in the backend system of the Wish platform. Select the order that needs to print the face slip among the orders to be shipped, and click the corresponding operation button to generate the face slip.
Paste location and precautions
Ensure that the information on the shipping label is accurate and affix it in a conspicuous location on the package so that logistics companies and warehouse personnel can easily identify and process the package. Make sure labels are clear and readable to avoid blurry or incomplete labels causing problems in shipping.
5. Use ERP system to manage shipments
It is important to choose an ERP system suitable for Wish shipping. A good ERP system can improve shipping efficiency, provide real-time data analysis and reporting functions, and optimize customer service. For example, Odoo, ShipStation and TradeGecko are all efficient management tools that can help sellers centrally manage the shipping process and improve efficiency.
6. Preparation of delivery materials
Printer
Laser printers/inkjet printers or thermal label printers are common choices, and they use A4 paper or 10cm × 10cm label paper respectively.
Printing paper
Use standard 80g A4 printing paper and oil-proof, waterproof, and alcohol-proof “three-proof” label printing paper.
Packaging accessories
Including packaging bags, packaging boxes, bubble wrap, transparent glue, sealing glue, etc., select appropriate packaging accessories according to specific products.
Statistical Tools
The electronic scale is used to calculate the weight, and the code scanner is used to scan the logistics manifest tracking number to facilitate delivery confirmation and quantity statistics.
Conclusion
By following the above steps and precautions, sellers can effectively optimize the shipping process, improve shipping efficiency, and ensure that goods reach buyers safely. Proper use of ERP systems and delivery materials can further improve the accuracy and efficiency of delivery, enhance buyer satisfaction, and thereby enhance the competitiveness of sellers.
