Opening a shop on e-commerce platforms like Shopee, Lazada, and TikTok allows you to offer pre-order products, especially for customized or restocked items that take some time. However, each platform has its rules on pre-order products, and today BigSeller will explain each platform's pre-order rules and how to fulfill pre-order orders!

 


1. What are pre-order products:

Pre-order products are products that sellers require a longer time to prepare inventory for, and the shipping days can be set for 5-10 working days. Pre-order products are usually customized or require special processing, and they will be labeled as "Pre-Order" on the storefront display.

2. How to set up pre-orders on Shopee

As consumers prefer products with shorter delivery timeframes, pre-selling products may have a certain impact on the store's conversion rate. Therefore, Shopee requires sellers to maintain a low quantity and proportion of pre-order products. At Shopee, there are corresponding restrictions on pre-selling products,

For regular sellers: Pre-order products must account for less than 20% or the quantity of pre-order products must be less than 100. Exceeding the pre-order product limit requirements will result in punishment.

For preferred sellers: The pre-order ratio that can be set for each site is different.
