Marketplace Overview

Communication speed directly affects conversion in cross-border retail. Buyers in different countries use email, WhatsApp, Line, Telegram, WeChat, Messenger, Zoom and other tools in different ways.

OTTO sellers should keep a clear contact process: confirm the buyer country, use the buyer preferred channel, keep order information written, and archive every key commitment before shipment.

A good service workflow usually includes a welcome reply, product confirmation, payment confirmation, shipping update, after-sales follow-up and review request. This keeps the store professional and helps the buyer trust the seller.
