More than 1 billion tons of products sold, users save 625 billion VND in shipping costs

Shopee, the leading e-commerce platform in Southeast Asia and Taiwan, concluded its “8-8 Super Freeship Festival” program with more than 1 billion tons of products sold, while helping users save more than 625 billion VND on shipping costs, 5 times the statistics at the 7-7 event.

8-8 Super Freeship Festival is a program that brings many benefits to sellers and buyers.

This not only reflects the strong purchasing power of online users but also affirms the effectiveness of Shopee's free shipping stimulus strategy in the second half of 2024.

Specifically, the platform continues to expand the scale of the "0 VND Shipping Fee" program throughout August 8 with a free shipping promotion of up to 500,000 VND, a great advantage for heavy, bulky items, long-distance shipping orders and products on Shopee Mall. At the same time, Shopee also launched express free shipping codes worth up to 100,000 VND, meeting the maximum shopping and same-day delivery needs of customers in the inner city.

During the August 8 event, the total volume of products traded through the platform reached more than 1 billion tons, 244 times the heaviest building in the world currently located in Romania according to the Guinness Book of Records. Shopee's internal statistics show that on August 8, laundry detergent, diapers, suitcases, desks, and fresh milk cartons were the 5 products with the highest sales volume. Of which, 322 tons of laundry detergent and 288 tons of diapers were paid for and delivered to users. In particular, Shopee's push to support free shipping has helped users save more than 625 billion VND in shipping fees. In the first 8 hours of August 8 alone, more than 6 million free shipping vouchers were used to shop on the platform...

Mr. Tran Tuan Anh, Managing Director, Shopee Vietnam said: “We continue to closely cooperate with reputable shipping units in Vietnam to optimize the operating process, shorten the shipping time of bulky items over long distances and help users save on shopping costs with e-commerce platforms through many incentives. In addition, Shopee continues to support sellers by reducing the Freeship Xtra package fee, supporting discount vouchers when selling via Shopee Live, Shopee Video, and increasing free training courses through Shopee Academy to help sellers prepare thoroughly for the peak shopping season at the end of the year.”
