More secured and reliable than any other online store


It’s actually hard to trust online stores nowadays. A lot of them can’t be trusted especially online stores that are unknown or have no history or customer transaction testimonials. With the rise of the Internet usage, more people are shifting to digital alternatives, one of which is the online shopping industry. It is actually on a meteoric rise in the Philippines. More local online users are now accepting this alternative-shopping destination, which is a surprise if we think back of our online history with the Ecommerce industry. Just a couple of years ago, not every is very fond of trying online stores to fulfill their shopping needs. Although it reached success outside Asia, not all countries where ready for it when they it was first available online. In the Philippines, we are the late adopter of online shopping.

The good thing is that we are now catching up. It’s quite amazing to see its quick progress over just one year. So how did this all started in the country? As far I know after conducting my own research, it started the same time when website like Lazada came into the local Ecommerce scene. Ever since they arrived in our country. Other local online competitors came out from nowhere. Now, we see various online stores. However, despite having this competition, Lazada still manage to come on top. Credit goes to their overall service to bring the best online shopping experience to their customers. They are not merely an online store that wants to sell in our local online space. But they came here to offer the best and safest option that a customer can avail from an online store. Conventionally, online stores require customers to pay upfront and thru credit card. This is the same reason why Ecommerce had a hard time in penetrating to local online market. Most of the local online users are not credit card owners. Also, we just don’t trust online stores at all since we expose ourselves to risks. Sure the idea is that when we buy from an online store is way cheaper but if the risks has more weight, then people back out from proceed to their orders.

This is where Lazada actually focused on. It is to make online shopping easier and more comfortable to the local online community. Hence, they introduced Cash on Delivery or C.O.D., an alternative payment method that almost allows anyone to order online. Ordering at their online store won’t hinder you from purchasing the item you want if you don’t possess a credit card. You can pay them in cash. All you need to do is visit their lazada.com.ph website and order whatever you want. As long as you selected Cash on Delivery as your payment method, Lazada won’t require you to pay right away. All you need to do is leave your shipment address. You get to keep your money up until your order arrives at your doorstep. As a result, regardless if you tried purchasing from them or not in the past, it won’t matter. It will be easier to rely on their service since you have the upper hand. What more can make you feel secured about your order? As long as you keep your money, any customer will feel secured.
