Lazada: Relaxed and worry-free online shopping

It is easy to say that almost all of us have an inner shopper within us. It only varies whether how addicted a person is in shopping. Some of us easily shop because of stress or they want to reward themselves. Some just make a hobby out of it. Point is, shopping is very integral in address our needs or most of the time – luxury demands. In this generation, shopping or buying something can now be done several ways. But I’d like to focus between offline and online shopping. So how does online shopping weigh in over traditional shopping with the local customers? Most of us would have avoided online shopping if this was asked a few years ago. For online shopping to be accepted by customers, an online mall should have good credibility.

Scams and frauds in online usually happens, which leads online customers to not rely on online shopping at all. Unlike other countries, there are only a few local consumers who have their own credit cards. This makes it acceptable that any online customers will be skeptic in trying online shopping. Customers usually measure if an online store has a sufficient secured line for credit card transaction. These are the factors that customers assess before deciding if they precede on shopping online.

The online shopping pace quickly changed when online malls like the Philippines’ Online Shopping Mall arrived in the country last year. Once they arrived in the country, they brought with them a solution that will solve the local Ecommerce issues in the country. Their solution was to offer an alternative payment method that will solve the local Ecommerce woes in the country. Cash on Delivery was the alternative payment method that they were banking on to help them penetrate the local online market. Customers can relax and not worry since they feel secured with this kind of payment method.

No longer will customers be required to submit their credit card details and can try their service without having to risk their end. So how does it work for the customers? The local online customers can go directly to the Lazada website and check out their huge selection. Once the local online customers are set on which items they want, they can order it from their website and not pay them right away. Customers who selected Cash on Delivery as their payment method won't be required to pay upfront before their orders are processed for delivery.

All the customers need to do is relax until their order arrives at their home, which usually takes about two to five days. Customers will only be subject to pay in cash once their orders are handed over to them upon delivery. Once an order delivery is above one thousand pesos, they will shoulder the delivery fee. It's good to know for customers that they get to hold their money up until their orders arrived at their doorstep. It's actually surreal to see that a customer has the upper hand over online stores.
