How much does it cost to transfer a Shopee store? How is the fee charged?

The stores on the Shopee platform can also be bought and sold. After operating for a period of time, some seller friends do not want to continue, so they want to transfer their stores. So the question is, in general, how much does it cost to transfer a Shopee store?

Generally, you need to register a Shopee account yourself. If you must buy something, the price varies. There may be a few hundred, or a few thousand or tens of thousands on the market. But you also need to be very careful when buying.

The most important thing that sellers of Shopee stores need to pay attention to is not to give their account and password to the other party immediately during the transaction. They must make sure that they receive the money before the transaction. But for buyers, there are more things to pay attention to.

1. The registered email address of the Shopee store

Most Shopee sellers register using QQ email, so you need to be cautious because the QQ status is related to the Shopee store; if the account is frozen, then the email account will also be frozen, which will affect the store's wallet password reception, and then the Shopee store will be useless.

2. Register your mobile phone number

The registered mobile phone number of the Shopee store is related to the subsequent opening of the site. Some store sellers will use virtual cards to register, which will easily expire the mobile phone number and affect the subsequent opening of the store. Therefore, it is recommended to choose a store registered with a real-name card, which will also be of better help to the subsequent store operation.

3. Change of store information

After purchasing a Shopee store, you need to change some of the store's information, which requires the seller's cooperation. The most important thing is to look at their legal person's ID card information, business license, and registered flow link, etc. These materials will be needed if you need to change the store information later.

When selling Shopee accounts, it is also necessary to choose formal channels, such as choosing some formal account trading platforms. Such platforms often have a more complete security system, and once problems arise, they can be solved reasonably. Some other channels, such as private transactions, have more risks in transactions because their systems are not so perfect.

What are the benefits of selling local Shopee accounts?

First of all, for mainland sellers, being able to purchase a local Shopee account will increase their turnover by more than 40%, and they will receive more Shopee traffic support.

Secondly, Shopee's local accounts have lower commissions and interest rates. In addition to the first three months of free payment, Shopee's cross-border stores also offer 6% commission + 2% payment fees, while local stores offer 0 commission + 2% payment fees. In comparison, the fees charged by local stores are 6% lower than those of cross-border stores.

Fast payment, local accounts are paid in one week, and cash can be withdrawn at any time. Local Shopee store sellers send express delivery to local logistics to pick up the goods at home, and there is no charge, and there is a logistics subsidy. The goods are received in about 3 days, and the money can be withdrawn at any time in about a week. Many partners have reported that the payment cycle of cross-border stores is as long as 40-60 days.

Cross-border accounts have category restrictions, while local stores do not. Due to logistics and transportation safety issues, there are some products that are prohibited from sale in each category on Shopee, but local sellers have no restrictions and do not have to worry about price competition from overseas products.

The logistics cost of local accounts is lower. Cross-border store sellers need to send the goods to the transit warehouse, and then transfer them to foreign countries through freight forwarding companies, which is more expensive. Local sellers have warehouses in the local area, or can establish cooperative relations with local logistics to deliver goods locally, saving the cost of international logistics.

You can also post on forums and forums where Shopee sellers gather, saying that you are selling your store. The content of the post should include the store information, the main sales categories, etc., so that interested buyers can contact you. However, it is important to pay the money and the account at the same time to avoid being cheated.
