What is the difference between JD.com’s self-operated stores and non-self-operated stores?

1. Different nature. Jingdong self-operated is Jingdong’s B2C online sales model, a model where merchants go directly to buyers.

Jingdong purchases and after-sales invoices are issued by Jingdong.

The non-self-operated model is that JD.com provides a sales platform, and the products are shipped by manufacturers or other merchants, and JD.com charges merchants fees for using the platform.

2. Different traffic malls will give self-operated stores the most traffic and activities to ensure sales and earn profits; thus leading to a reduction in consumer traffic to non-self-operated stores.

3. Logistics are different. Jingdong’s self-operated stores generally choose the nearest warehouse to place the order for delivery, and often receive the goods the next day. The delivery points of non-self-operated stores are relatively fixed, and the logistics speed will be relatively slow.

4. The shipping costs are different. JD.com delivers goods + JD.com after-sales service, and is shown as self-operated. This is truly self-operated by JD.com Supermarket. The basic shipping fee is 6 yuan, and free shipping for orders over 99 yuan.

JD.com ships + the store specializes in after-sales, and does not show itself as self-operated. This is a third-party store, and the shipping fee is defined by the store itself.
