JD Marketplace: what are its main features?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

JD.com<\/a>, also known as Jing Dong, is a massive B2C e-commerce platform, one of China’s leading eCommerce marketplaces. It acts as a platform for both direct sales and a marketplace. JD is well known for its global supply chain abilities and efficient logistics systems with a fully automated warehouse, artificial intelligence, and so on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

JD.com\u2019s direct sales model is based on JD.com product sourcing from brands and suppliers and selling them directly to customers through the company\u2019s website and mobile channels. This business model allows JD to do same-day delivery by sending products from warehouses directly to buyers. This model was initially more focused on key areas such electronics and home appliances, but has rapidly opened to many more product categories<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the JD marketplace enables well-established, reliable third-party sellers to sell high quality products directly to Chinese e-commerce consumers akin to the Tmall business model (china’s most profitable e-commerce company).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Selling on JD Worldwide: Cross-border eCommerce<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Among its initiatives, we find JD Worldwide, which is a cross-border e-commerce platform that enables Chinese e-commerce customers to purchase products from other countries with the ease and convenience that they expect from JD.com. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This feature of JD is very useful because it offers international merchants the ability to begin selling and tap into the Chinese market even if they do not have a physical presence in China. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

JD Worldwide is open to brands, franchisees, retailers, and traders that are legally registered outside China, selling products that originate from outside China. The collaboration with logistics services, such as DHL, means that the products are safely delivered to Chinese customers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

JD payment: online wallet – WeChat pay<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Payment is also a fairly easy process for a foreign seller, or at least for someone with a registered USD bank account. In fact, only US dollar transfers are made for now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For a foreign seller JD Worldwide will be the best choice, not only because just Mainland China’s registered companies can own .cn domains, but above all and as previously mentioned, all the Chinese data traffic is in the marketplace and not on individual sites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Requirements to register as a merchant on the JD eCommerce Marketplace<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Registration to sell on JD.com<\/a> is not free. In fact, even if the brand is suitable, JD.com requires a deposit of $15,000, a fee of $1000, and in the case of the sale will take a commission between 2 and 5 %.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A recent collaboration between JD and Shopify offers Shopify merchants a new sales channel through the marketplace with an easier onboarding process and better foreign exchange rates. It’s a major step from JD to opening to smaller and independent businesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are some other basic requirements that a foreign seller must possess in order to collaborate with JD.com<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
