to know

we hear most before sign-up.
QUESTION THEMES

- Selling
- Overseas
- Sales & shipping
01Can I use ECport with just one product?
Yes. You can start with only a few products and switch at any time to a plan that fits your number of products and connected sites as your business grows.
See pricing and terms02Can I use it just for my own online store?
Yes. You can use it only to sell your own products in your own store, without connected selling with other businesses.
Learn more about your own store03Will my products be listed on other companies' storefronts automatically?
No. Nothing is listed without your permission. After a connection request, both sides review the sales terms and fees, and only approved products are sold through the connection.
See how connected selling works04Are there products that can't be sold overseas?
Yes. Some products cannot be sold overseas due to laws, import/export regulations, carrier restrictions or the destination country or region. Conditions need to be checked for each product before you start selling overseas.
Learn about selling overseas05How are sales proceeds paid out?
The amount after fees is transferred to your registered bank account. Any refunds or cancellations are also reflected in your proceeds.
Learn about managing sales06Who handles returns, cancellations and delivery problems?
They are handled according to what the selling site shows, its terms of use and the conditions agreed between the businesses. As a rule, the Supplier providing the product handles shipping and the product itself, while the site operator handles guidance for buyers and running the storefront. In ECport you can see order status and messages in one place.
