As a customer, receiving a product with bent, damaged, or wet packaging can be disappointing and frustrating. It reflects poorly on the overall presentation of the item and may raise concerns about the product's condition.

Investing in sturdy and reliable packaging materials demonstrates your commitment to delivering products in optimal condition. It shows that you value the customer's satisfaction and take pride in the presentation of your items. Well-designed packaging can also create a memorable unboxing experience, making the customer feel special and excited about their purchase. Everyone eats food with their eyes first. The way you present the product to the buyer forms the buyer's constant loyalty and warm attitude towards your store. Taking into account all the above important aspects, ZoodPay University trainers have prepared a qualification video especially for you. Watch carefully and remember the tips. Packaging is an article made of any material that is used to store, protect, handle, deliver and display goods, from raw materials to finished products, throughout the entire cycle from producer to consumer.

  • How can bank details be checked?
    The use of bank account validation systems provides several benefits, including the prevention of errors when entering bank details. These systems can help restore missing or unclear characters in account numbers, ensuring accurate and successful transactions. Account verification is typically based on a "security key" located at position 9 of a 20-digit bank account number. This key serves to validate the accuracy of the entered account number. It's important to note that this validation check confirms the correctness of the number but does not guarantee the existence of the account itself. Nonetheless, it serves as the initial step in a multi-level system for verifying bank account numbers. By utilizing a bank details validation system, you can identify and rectify a single unknown digit in the BIC or current and bank account numbers. This allows for greater assurance that your funds will reach the intended recipient and helps recover missing or corrupted elements in the bank details. Additionally, with the current account and correspondent account numbers, it is possible to restore the two missing digits in the BIC code. Each of these bank details is crucial for the proper processing of payments, and the absence of any required detail may result in the rejection of the transaction by the financial institution. Overall, utilizing a bank account validation system enhances the accuracy and reliability of your payment transactions, ensuring that the correct details are used and any missing or unclear elements are restored.

  • How can high-quality product photos be ensured on the platform?
    How can a good product photograph increase sales for your business? Having an eCommerce store to sell your product is one of the best strategies to increase your sales. However, the rise in e-commerce today has brought a tough end to online shopping. This means that for any e-commerce that wants to sell online, it's no longer enough to put a product description with a mediocre image. It is necessary to make the presentation of the product as attractive as possible. Indeed, one of the main methods of selling on the web is to use a professional product photo that generates interest and attracts attention. In this article, we will tell you how good product photography can increase sales for your business. First impression It is believed that a well-taken photo accounts for at least 80% of sales success. Undoubtedly, a good photo makes the buyer pay attention to the product. This is the main and most descriptive description of the product. It is the first thing a customer sees when they are about to make a purchase. According to statistics, 8 out of 10 potential buyers will not consider a product without a photo. Therefore, you must make sure that the photo of the product being offered is attractive in order to capture the attention of your customer. Help in decision making! Simple question: would you buy a dress based solely on its description? As a customer, you will most likely need some sort of visual reference to help you feel confident when making a purchase decision. It is true that written text is necessary when specifying material, size, weight, etc. However, the quality of the images offered on a product is critical to achieving a user conversion to an eCommerce portal. If you offer a low quality image, the user will be distrustful of the product and e-commerce. This will force him to look for another store to purchase the same product. Increase customer interest in the product Nothing can attract a buyer like a well-taken product photo. When buying on the Internet, a person most often cannot evaluate the product in real life: he is not able to see, touch or try it. A good product photo can convey all of this information. A beautiful picture awakens the desire of the buyer to become the owner of the product. Conversely, in the absence of a well-taken photo, there is a high probability that the product page will not even be opened Build trust and increase the number of buyers. A good product photo reflects the quality of the product being sold as accurately as possible and shows its main properties and characteristics. If the photo doesn't appeal to the person, the product page often won't even open. Conversely, good photos increase the number of visitors, and as a result, increase the number of buyers. In addition, it increases customer loyalty and the likelihood that he will again make a purchase in this store in the future. Conclusion It goes without saying that a good product photo is a key element when it comes to building trust in your online store. Potential customers will feel much more secure when buying, which means they will buy more if you offer them quality graphic information. So by taking care of your e-commerce photography, you will pass on trust and security to your consumers.

  • What should I do if the shipping provider loses my package during delivery?
    If the courier has lost the items, it is the responsibility of the courier company to fully refund the cost of the items without any discounts. However, the seller must provide evidence that the lost item was indeed shipped to the courier. To protect themselves against such situations, sellers can take certain measures. One effective option is to create an act of acceptance of the transfer of goods by the seller. This document serves as proof of the actual transfer of items to the courier during collection. By documenting the transfer, the seller can provide evidence of their fulfillment of the delivery obligation. Additionally, sellers can upload video recordings from their store, clearly showing the number of orders the courier collected on the day of shipment. These recordings can further support the seller's claim regarding the transfer of goods to the courier. It's important to note that oral evidence alone is not sufficient to substantiate the fact of the transfer of goods, as the seller is considered an interested party. Therefore, having proper documentation and supporting evidence is crucial in cases where items are lost during the delivery process.
  • What should I do if the courier refuses to pick up my parcel for delivery?
    The courier may refuse to accept the goods in certain cases to ensure the proper handling and delivery of items. These cases include: Improper presentation of goods: If the goods are already damaged, have scuffs, dents, or are not neatly packaged when handed over to the courier from the store, the courier may refuse to accept them. It is important for sellers to ensure that the goods are in good condition and properly packaged before handing them over to the courier. Seller's refusal to pack the goods: If the seller refuses to pack the goods, it can create a higher risk of damage during delivery. In such cases, the courier company may decline to accept the unpacked goods as they may not be adequately protected. It is recommended for sellers to properly pack their goods to ensure their safe transportation. By ensuring that the goods are in proper condition and adequately packaged, sellers can help facilitate a smooth acceptance process by the courier and minimize the risk of damage during delivery.
  • What should I do if the shipping provider breaks my product during delivery?
    If an item is damaged by the courier company during delivery, it is important to take the following steps to seek reimbursement for the damage: Write a claim letter: Prepare a formal claim letter outlining the details of the incident, including the date of delivery, tracking number, description of the damage, and any supporting evidence such as photographs. Clearly state that you are seeking reimbursement for the damage caused by the courier company. Send the claim letter: Send the claim letter to the courier company's customer service department. Make sure to retain a copy of the letter for your records and consider sending it via certified mail or with a delivery confirmation to ensure it reaches the intended recipient. Investigation process: The courier company will initiate an investigation to determine where the breakdown occurred during the delivery process. They may contact various employees within the company, such as couriers, warehouse staff, or delivery personnel, to gather information and evidence related to the incident. Reimbursement: Once the courier company completes their investigation and determines that they are responsible for the damage, they will be prepared to reimburse you for the incurred damage. The reimbursement should cover the cost of the item, any shipping fees, and potentially any additional expenses incurred due to the damage. It's important to note that the process of investigation and reimbursement may take some time, depending on the courier company's procedures and policies.

  • What kind of general information there is?
    A fulfillment center is a warehouse facility that handles various processes involved in order fulfillment for e-commerce businesses. It serves as a central hub for managing inventory, processing orders, packaging products, and facilitating their delivery to customers. The primary goal of a fulfillment center is to ensure efficient and timely order fulfillment, allowing businesses to deliver goods to customers as quickly as possible. The fulfillment center is responsible for receiving incoming inventory from sellers, storing it in an organized manner, and tracking inventory levels. When an order is placed, the fulfillment center processes the order, picking the items from the inventory, packing them securely, and preparing them for shipment. This includes labeling, packaging materials, and ensuring that products are in good condition. Once the order is ready, the fulfillment center arranges for its delivery through various shipping methods and carriers. Fulfillment centers have specific guidelines and conditions for accepting products, such as the requirement for goods to be properly packaged, sealed, and in good condition. They may have restrictions on certain types of products, such as perishable items, flammable goods, or oversized/bulky items. Adhering to these guidelines helps maintain the quality and presentation of products throughout the fulfillment process. Using a fulfillment center can benefit businesses by outsourcing the complex logistics and operational aspects of order fulfillment. It allows companies to focus on other aspects of their business while relying on the expertise and infrastructure of the fulfillment center to handle the storage, processing, and delivery of their products.

  • What is inventory financing, and how does it work?
    Inventory is the process by which a company checks the quantity and value of its inventory in a warehouse. This process is important for accounting for the company's funds and determining its financial condition. However, stock counting may also require additional financial costs. For example, a company may need to rent additional equipment or hire temporary employees to speed up the inventory process. In addition, inventory may reveal the need for additional inventory purchases to meet customer demand. Companies can use a variety of methods to fund inventory inventory. One way is to use your own funds. The company may use its own capital or allocate additional funds from its current assets to cover inventory costs. Another way of financing is the use of a loan or a loan. The company may apply to a bank or other financial institution for a loan or loan to cover inventory costs. However, it must be taken into account that this may require the payment of interest on a loan or loan, which will increase the costs of the company. Companies can also use factoring or discounts from vendors as a way to fund inventory inventory. For example, a company may receive a discount from a supplier when paying by a certain date, or sell its invoices to pay suppliers through a factoring company. In general, inventory inventory financing can be done in a variety of ways, including using equity, loans, borrowings, factoring, or discounts from suppliers. Each method has its own advantages and disadvantages, so companies should choose the most suitable method depending on their needs and finances.

  • What products are subject to mandatory digital labeling on the ZOOD marketplace in accordance with the new requirements of the legislation of the Republic of Uzbekistan?
    The ZOOD marketplace is implementing a procedure for mandatory digital marking of household and other appliances in order to comply with the new requirements of the legislation of the Republic of Uzbekistan, introduced in accordance with the Decree of the Cabinet of Ministers of the Republic of Uzbekistan No. 148 dated April 02, 2022. The products listed below cannot be sold on the ZOOD marketplace without digital marking starting from September 01, 2023, namely: • Vacuum cleaners; • Washing machines; • Refrigerators and freezers. • TVs and monitors. • Household gas stoves; • Hoods; • Ovens and stoves; • Microwaves. • Irons; • Water heaters; • Air conditioners; • Household appliances with built-in electric motor (juicers, blenders, mixers, coffee grinders, meat grinders); • All types of lamps.
  • What is Digital Marking?
    Digital marking is the process of applying a specialized code to a product or product packaging, the purpose of which is to track the movement of the marked product. The main task of product labeling is to guarantee consumers the authenticity and declared quality of the purchased products. To mark the goods, a two-dimensional Data Matrix code is used, which fixes the date and place of production of the goods and tracks its movement along the commodity chain: from the manufacturer to the wholesale and retail link and further to the sale of the goods through the online checkout. At each stage, data on production and turnover of products are recorded in the national information system for digital marking and traceability of goods - NIS Asl Belgisi.
  • Why do we need digital marking?
    According to data from open sources, the overall level of the “shadow” economy in 2019 in Uzbekistan amounted to 52.11%. Placing a Data Matrix code on product packaging makes it possible to more effectively combat counterfeiting and smuggling, protect legal businesses and consumers from counterfeit products, and also increase tax collection for the state. By fixing the movement of marked goods at each stage from the manufacturer to the buyer, the appearance of duplicate goods and the possibility of its repeated withdrawal from circulation are excluded. The consumer can verify the authenticity of the product by scanning the marking code with the ASL Belgisi mobile application.
  • Who is responsible for marking?
    Manufacturers and importers are responsible for applying the marking code, they are obliged to order marking codes, mark the goods at the factory, put the marked goods into circulation and transfer data about the goods to the marking system for further operations by other participants in the circulation of goods. For the issuance of marking codes and the operation of the Asl Belgisi system, the operator of CRPT TURON LLC is responsible. It is he who ensures the creation, operation and development of the Asl Belgisi.
  • What are the risks if digital marking is not done?
    Violation of marking rules by manufacturers and sellers is subject to a fine in the amount of net revenue received in the last reporting quarter. That is, all profits for this period go to pay the fine.
  • Once you receive the label in Excel format, you have two options for marking your products:
    Service provider: a legal entity that, on behalf of a participant in turnover, applies an identification tool (DataMatrix code) to consumer packaging or a label. The service provider is not a member of the state information system. is a contracting company that provides services for applying marking codes. The service provider does not work with the "Medications" product group. Integrator: Integrator - is a contracting company that develops integrated solutions for the automation of technological and business processes in the organization. Integrators help UOTs connect to the marking system. and comply with all rules and standards enshrined in regulatory legal acts, install and maintain marking equipment and software.
  • How Does Marking Work?
    • A participant in the circulation of goods is registered with the NIS Asl Belgisi. • The manufacturer or importer orders a digital code and puts a unique code on the product. • The marking code records the entire logistics chain along which the subject of marking moves, from the factory to the consumer, from the introduction into circulation to the withdrawal of goods from circulation. • The code is scanned by a participant in the circulation of goods with a special 2D scanner when selling at an online checkout. This is how information about the disposal of products from circulation is transmitted to the system. • Using a mobile application for digital marking of goods, the consumer can check its legality.
  • How much does the marking code cost?
    The cost of digital marking is determined by the Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers No. 833 of December 31, 2020: • according to Decree No. 833 of December 31, 2020, the Operator charges a fee of 68 soums for one marking code (VAT is paid separately). • the code is paid only by the manufacturer or importer of the product. • other participants (wholesale, retail, consumers) pay nothing.
