Can individuals with both individual and corporate identities on AliExpress open a store?
As the AliExpress platform continues to develop and grow, more and more people are gradually opening stores on AliExpress. If you want to open a store on AliExpress, you must also meet the conditions. So, can both self-employed and corporate individuals on AliExpress open physical stores? The following is a detailed introduction for everyone.
You can open a physical store with either a self-employed person or a corporate identity. To open a physical store with a corporate identity, you must use the company's Alipay account or the Alipay account of the company's legal person to conduct corporate identity verification on AliExpress. If a merchant has a brand or brand agent, he or she can choose to operate the brand's official store, dealership or exclusive store type requirements based on the brand qualification certificate. AliExpress store opening standards are still the same as before, but recently AliExpress has introduced a new investment policy. Some merchants will ask whether they still have to pay the annual credit card fee?
In the new AliExpress New merchants who apply to enter the store after the function is released do not need to pay the annual AliExpress credit card fee. They only need to provide a deposit according to the merchant's standards. If the store enters multiple categories, the deposit will be based on the largest amount among the categories. It is deducted as a standard and does not accumulate.
When merchants apply to join AliExpress, they should pay a specific deposit and ensure that their Alipay account has sufficient balance. After the application is passed, the platform will lock the relevant quota of Alipay wallet and the limit of Alipay wallet. If it is not enough, it cannot be enabled. Stores that have opened a store on AliExpress before November 27, 2019, will continue to sign or re-enter in January 2020.
If the merchant deposits a deposit and the merchant has any illegal operations, the deposit will be refunded to the Alipay account associated with the merchant. If there are any illegal operations required by the merchant's standards, after deducting the corresponding amount, part of the account balance will be refunded to the Alipay account associated with the merchant.
When a merchant has a deposit, the platform will automatically take off the store's products. If the store wants to continue operating, it must top up the deposit and then launch the product. Therefore, the store must ensure that the Alipay account has sufficient credit, otherwise it will be inconvenient for AliExpress to remove the product.
The AliExpress platform will evaluate the service ability scores of merchants every month. If a merchant fails to meet the service platform requirements after three evaluations in total, the merchant will be removed from the AliExpress platform and banned. You will not be able to enter the AliExpress platform later.
