Can I use domestic credit cards to receive payments on Shopee? How do I bind a card?

More and more merchants are opening stores on Shopee, and many of them are domestic. So there will be some questions when opening a store, such as whether merchants on Shopee can use domestic bank cards when collecting payments? It is normal to have questions in this regard. Let’s introduce it in detail below.

Can I use domestic credit cards to pay with Shopee?

Yes, merchants in mainland China can apply for opening as long as they have seller qualifications. However, due to the increasing influence of the platform, the recruitment of merchants has become increasingly strict. It is becoming increasingly difficult for small and medium-sized sellers to pass the application. There is also a compromise solution, which is to quickly open a store by purchasing some transferred stores. You only need to replace the P card for receiving payments, which is very simple.

Step 1: Bind card

Enter your account password to log in

Enter the seller backend page and select "Bank Account"

After selecting a bank account, a verification page will pop up, and you will need to enter the password for your account.

After verification, select Add bank account

After entering the next step, enter the Thai name and Thai ID number, and then enter the next step

Enter the name on the bank passbook, select the bank name, and enter the passbook number. (Note: The name on the passbook in step 6 can be different from the Thai name entered in step 5, but you should enter the name on the passbook in step 6, otherwise you will not be able to withdraw money if the information is incorrect)

Verification code input page.

The card is successfully bound.

Important points to note about the seventh step verification code:

Currently due to Shopee's reasons, basically no matter whether you are at home or overseas, you cannot receive the SMS verification code, so you need to wait 60 seconds and switch to the voice verification code, but the voice verification code needs to be answered using a phone card, and answering is charged. The three major mainstream operators: AIS operator 21 baht/minute, TRUE operator 36 baht per minute, DTAC operator 65 baht per minute (free of charge when answering with software), so you need to ensure that there is enough money on the card first. If there is not enough money on the card, you will not be able to answer the call.

The voice verification code is pronounced in Thai numbers. Before answering the call, you must understand the Thai number pronunciation or find someone who can speak Thai to answer the call, otherwise you will be charged for each call.

Do not sell prohibited items. If a customer has a problem, handle it immediately. If a refund is possible, do not hesitate to refund immediately. Otherwise, the loss will be even greater if you wait for the store to be closed.

When you open a store on Shopee, you can use domestic bank cards to collect payments. Currently, Shopee supports three payment methods, and you can choose according to your needs. However, in actual situations, most Shopee merchants use Pingpong to collect payments.
