As the Philippines continues to embrace the digital shopping revolution, e-commerce giant Shopee is leading the way for brands to expand their reach and achieve sustained growth. Supported by Shopee Mall’s innovative platform features, Shopee ensures a seamless shopping experience that strengthens brand connections and fosters customer loyalty.

Celebrating Shopee Mall’s Growth and Expansion

At its inaugural Shopee Brands Summit, the e-commerce platform announced the growth in orders on Shopee Mall, its premium retail space reserved for brand owners and authorized distributors, by more than 20% compared to the past year Shopee Mall offers a dedicated platform where online shoppers can discover authentic, high-quality brand products, easily identified through a distinct label on the shop’s profile page and product listings.

Since its launch in 2017, Shopee Mall has expanded its roster of brands to include popular favorites like L’Oreal, PUMA, Nintendo, and Italian make-up brand KIKO Milano. By working with brands to offer users exciting product launches and exclusive deals over the upcoming 10.10 Brands Festival, Shopee Mall is poised to continue being the go-to brand e-tailer for Filipino shoppers.

Building Trust and Driving Brand Growth

With millions of users visiting the platform and carting out daily, Vincent Lee, Head of Shopee Philippines, emphasized Shopee Mall’s role in opening up a wealth of opportunities for brand growth and sustained success in the digital era.

“Shopee Mall aims to help brands to build lasting relationships with our users by providing a dynamic and trusted platform where both can thrive. We believe in empowering brands to elevate their presence and deliver exceptional shopping experiences,” Lee said.

Recognizing that trust forms the core of strong brand and buyer relationships, Shopee has made strides in enhancing its customer journey, adapting to the evolving needs of Filipinos, and strengthening trust in online purchases. For instance, product authenticity is the most important attribute in an online mall for 77% of upper to middle income Shopee users in the Philippines. Reaffirming its dedication to authenticity, Shopee requires brands under Shopee Mall to undergo rigorous verification and tripled its money-back guarantee to ensure every product sold is 100% authentic.

Furthermore, Shopee Mall has an extended return and refund window to 15 days – double the platform's initial 7-day return and refund period – to provide buyers added reassurance that their purchase will be satisfactory. With a revamped Shopee Mall interface to improve product and brand discoverability, along with the app’s signature seamless and secure checkout experience, Shopee’s enhancements enable brands to broaden and deepen their connections with buyers.

Bringing The Best Brands Closer to Filipino Shoppers

Shopee's commitment to delivering an enjoyable shopping experience has attracted a diverse user base and proven to be a strategic platform for brands to expand their reach and drive sales. Successful partnerships with PUMA and Nintendo demonstrate how Shopee's innovative features and robust support have enabled these brands to thrive in the competitive e-commerce landscape.

Upon partnering with Shopee, sports apparel brand PUMA has significantly increased their brand visibility and broadened their customer reach, enabling them to strategically position themselves alongside other competitors in the market. Shopee Live has proven to be an indispensable tool for the brand in engaging sports enthusiasts, driving exponential sales growth for PUMA during each livestream.

“The key difference for us is the exceptional support from the Shopee team,” remarked Javier Sabarre, Assistant Manager for E-Commerce Marketplace at PUMA. “And we anticipate sustained growth over the coming years through our continued partnership.” Sabarre highlighted that Shopee's operational support has strengthened their customer-centric strategy, as demonstrated by the remarkable fourfold growth in their business since entering the e-commerce sector in 2022.

Gaming giant Nintendo opened its Philippines Official Store on Shopee in November 2023, and continues to see rapid growth as one of the platform’s top gaming brands. Their presence on Shopee Mall, and use of the platform’s engagement features and promotion tools, drove excitement among the brand’s fans, especially when coupled with attractive brand offers. Nintendo also actively leveraged Shopee Live and Shopee Video to deepen their relationships with the local gaming community and capture new audiences.

Building a Thriving Community at Shopee

Innovative features like Shopee Video and Shopee Live are transforming how brands build relationships with their buyers. These tools allow sellers to showcase their products through engaging video content and real-time interactive shopping experiences, allowing shoppers to get a better look at product conditions and specifications to drive buyer confidence.

“Shopee strives to create an environment where users can shop with confidence and ease,” remarked Lee. “With our extensive selection of well-loved brands and innovative features, Shopee Mall has become a thriving hub where brands can unlock growth potential while ensuring secure, convenient, and enjoyable online shopping experiences for all our users.”

Filipinos love to shop online–a recent report by data and analytics firm GlobalData showed that nearly 90% of Filipino consumers have shopped online in the last six months. This has put the growth of the e-commerce market at 31.3% in 2022 and is expected to grow by 22.9% and reach a value of P615.7 billion within the year.

Along with the widespread adoption and convenience online shopping offers comes the risk of frauds–from fake products to sellers who send defective products or send no product at all. 61% of Filipinos reported being targeted and/or victims of fraud in the past three months, according to a Q4 2022 Consumer Pulse Study by consumer credit reporting agency, TransUnion. This is a significant increase from the 55% reported in Q3 of the same year. While phishing remained the most commonly reported fraud scheme (51%), third-party seller scams on legitimate e-commerce sites came in third (33%), indicating a concerning trend that puts Filipino online shoppers at risk.

So before you whip out your smartphone and click buy on that item you’re itching to get your hands on, here are a few tips you can do to protect your “budol” finds and your hard-earned money from online shopping frauds:

Buy from official stores or legitimate sellers

Sometimes when browsing through online stores, you’ll undoubtedly encounter a deal that’s too good to pass up but before you bite the bullet and check out, take a few seconds to check the seller and make sure that they are legitimate sellers or official stores.

Buying from official stores and legitimate sellers ensures that the products you’re buying are authentic and are of good quality. Plus, some e-commerce platforms also offer additional perks when you buy from these stores including warranties, free shipping, and even money back guarantees.

Check the reviews

You’ll undoubtedly come across multiple products being sold by different stores online and the sheer number of options can be overwhelming. One way to weed out the best deals and items is to check reviews from previous buyers.

Check the review section of the product you’re eyeing on e-commerce platforms or if you’re buying from Facebook Marketplace and other social media pages, see if you can find a business page where previous customers have left reviews.

Reviews are helpful in helping you make informed decisions on your purchase–if the item is worth buying, if the seller is legitimate, cooperative, and responsive, or if there are any watch outs like long delivery lead times or trouble when it comes to repairs, returns, or refunds.

Compare prices

If you’re on the lookout for a good deal, it never hurts to compare prices. Several sellers will have the same exact product on sale and it’s good to take a second and look at other sellers before deciding on where to buy.

Some stores may offer the same price but throw in other perks like free shipping for no minimum spend, extended warranties, a small freebie, or the lowest price offered on the platform. A word of caution on super low prices, if it seems too good to be true, it probably is, and it would be beneficial to check if the seller is legit and the products reviews before deciding where to buy.

Get an online shopping insurance to protect your purchases

One of the main advantages of shopping online is the time it saves from selection to purchase–you don’t need to go to a physical store and buy an item as with a few clicks, the item will be on its way to you within a few days.

However, its main advantage can also be a disadvantage as you’re buying something sight unseen–you really can’t check the quality of the purchase until it’s already delivered. Even if you follow all the steps to make a good purchase, sometimes you may still receive a bad or fake product, or it may not even show up at all.

Designed to protect consumers from e-commerce scams and frauds, Igloo and GCash collaborated on an Online Shopping Insurance that provides coverage for undelivered goods and uncontactable sellers, partial delivery or fake goods for up to P150,000 for as low as P15/month.

Policy holders can file multiple claims until they reach their benefit amount after which the policy expires and will require a shopper to apply for another policy.

By following these steps, you can reduce your risk of falling victim to online shopping fraud and scams, safeguard your “budol” finds and shop worry-free.

 

Driven by its goal of serving Filipinos wherever they may be, Shopee continues to deliver ease and convenience for all through its highly-anticipated double-day sales. With the upcoming 9.9 Super Shopping Day, the start of its year-end shopping season, Shopee gives everyone much to look forward to with a new community-building project, the greatest selection of deals, entertaining activities, and exciting prizes.

Win a Shopee-sponsored Community Project for your Barangay
Beyond offering the best deals through its double-day sales, Shopee continues to work towards utilizing its resources and technology to help underserved communities across the Philippines. Especially crafted to welcome the start of the 9.9 Super Shopping Day, Shopee has launched Barangay Shopee, the newest initiative under its Shopee Bayanihan CSR program, where users can win a sponsored community project for their barangay, such as a new basketball court, multi-purpose hall renovation, and public school supplies.

From August 25 up to September 9, Shopee users from all over the Philippines can nominate their barangay for a chance to win a community project of their choice that addresses their barangay’s needs. To join the initiative, users simply need to post their video entries on Facebook and submit the link via the Barangay Shopee page in the app.

As we settle into the -ber months, it’s time to start thinking of your Christmas list. If you’re at a loss as to how to spread joy to your loved ones during the holidays amidst a pandemic, who better to ask for advice than one of the Philippines’ Christmas icons, Jose Mari Chan?

The musician, who has been Shopee’s Christmas ambassador since 2018, shares that the important thing is to imbue the true spirit of Christmas. “This pandemic may have completely changed our shopping habits, but one thing remains the same—every chance you get to show kindness, do so. Whatever you give doesn't have to be a big amount.”

Begin your holiday shopping at Shopee’s Sep 30 Payday Sale and keep these other tips from Jose Mari Chan in mind:

Take advantage of the convenience and accessibility of online shopping

Like plenty of Filipinos, Jose Mari Chan prefers to shop online these days, from gifts to basic necessities and healthcare products. “Instead of taking public transport or driving to a store, you can purchase from Shopee while staying at home.” Aside from enjoying the safety and convenience, he adds that users get to help out other Filipinos. “You're doing not only yourself a favor. You also continue to support small businesses, manufacturers, and delivery services.”

Always check for free shipping and other promos to make shopping more worthwhile

Jose Mari Chan reminds users to keep an eye out for vouchers, especially during Shopee’s big sales. At the upcoming Sep 30 Payday Sale, for instance, users can enjoy free shipping with no minimum spend, 30% bills cashback, and 30% off vouchers. Stack vouchers for bigger discounts. Jose Mari Chan says, “What more can you ask for? I assure you, when you purchase on Shopee, you will always be able to get the best deal.”

Go cashless for safe and convenient transactions

Start opting for contactless payment methods for safe and convenient payments. Use ShopeePay, Shopee’s all-in-one e-wallet, to Buy Load, Pay Bills & Scan to Pay. At Shopee’s Sep 30 Payday Sale, enjoy ShopeePay-exclusive promos such as up to 50% off on mobile load; 30% bills cashback from Meralco, Maynilad, PLDT, and over 60 other billers; and ShopeePay ₱1 Deals from Puregold, Potato Corner, Seaoil, and more.

For account security, Jose Mari Chan adds, “Change your ShopeePay PIN regularly and do not share it with anyone to prevent unauthorized purchases.”

It's better to plan ahead and organize your Christmas list early on

Jose Mari Chan shares that he and his wife are early birds when it comes to holiday shopping. He advises users to follow this principle and plan ahead. “List down some important people whom you want to cheer up, then browse online to see what items you can give. Do it early. If you leave it up to the last minute, you might make some impulse purchases or even overspend,” he says.

Put more heart into picking gifts to make it more meaningful

Feeling stumped about gift ideas? Here’s a piece of advice from Jose Mari Chan: try to come up with gifts that hold meaning for the recipient. “For the past years, my wife and I have been giving each other a common gift that we’d both agree on prior, such as items we need for the home. I would also ask special friends if they have a favorite charity, and I would donate in their name as a gift.”

The musician concludes that as he gets older, he derives more pleasure from giving than receiving. “When you receive, it's just a moment's pleasure. When you give, it lasts longer. When you give out of kindness, love, charity, and generosity, the impact will last for many years.”

Global smartphone brand Vivo has confirmed its partnerships with Shopee Philippines and Akulaku.

Vivo Philippines Vice President for Sales Ms. Hazel Bascon and Brand Director Ms. Annie Lim during the launch of the all-new X21 on June 21 at Okada Manila exchanged tokens with the representatives from Shopee Philippines, Ms. Jane Lim, and from Akulaku, Mr. Sean Duxiang.

With the new partnerships, Vivo has opened its official online store on Shopee Philippines and has given shoppers to buy its smartphones through online installment payment options on Akulaku.

Vivo Philippines newest partner is Shopee Philippines.

Vivo Philippines’ executives welcomed Akulaku as its newest online partner.

“We promise a fruitful year of surprises as we forge more partnerships with other brands, such as Shopee Philippines and Akulaku,” Ms. Bascon said before the ceremonial exchanged of tokens.
Shopee Philippines is an online shopping mall where users can buy and sell anytime and anywhere. Akulaku, meanwhile, is an online installing shopping mall that also provides financial services in Southeast Asian countries.

“We still have a long year to go and this means more exciting Vivo events are in store in the coming months,” Ms. Bascon added.

A relentless provider, a shoulder to cry on, a jester, a reliable fix-it fellow—dads wear various hats to support their families, and they deserve nothing but the best on their special day. Especially amidst increasing living and leisure costs, there is more pressure for fathers to provide a comfortable life for their household, especially for their children.

Chester Sy, dad to 5 kids, acknowledges this and continuously looks for more opportunities for his family. Three years ago, he started selling his own shoe line named Tanggo (https://www.lazada.com.ph/shop/shop-tanggo/) in Lazada Philippines, the country’s leading one-stop online shopping and selling destination. He recognized the opportunity he saw in Lazada, and, “now, it’s a booming industry,” he says.

The entrepreneurial dad juggles managing his online shop with two other ventures, on top of his duties as a husband and as a father. “With an online shop in Lazada, you can control your time and spend more of it with your family,” shares Chester, although he admits that during big sale promotions like Online Revolution, he works longer hours since his store receives a lot of orders. “Even if I’m busy, I try to find time for them, especially at night. We like to watch Netflix.”
Like Chester, Jake Manongdo built his shop Shipped From Philippines (https://www.lazada.com.ph/shop/shipped-from-philippines/) on Lazada to support his family. To do this, he welcomes revenue opportunities like being included in flash sales. “I was selected as one of the flash sale sellers during the Lazada Birthday Sale. I told myself, this is it! I’m going to concentrate on this profitable business,” says the pharmacist-turned-entrepreneur.

“Lazada has always helped me for my family’s needs,” Jake further shares. “I built a business focused on this platform and that helped my business grow. I’m investing time, money, and effort on Lazada because this business is inheritable by my daughter, Summerlove, in the future. When she grows up, she can manage it, and it will provide for her, too.”

Chester and Jake are joining thousands of online sellers in treating fathers on their special day! The Lazada Father’s Day Sale offers up to 80% off on gift ideas like gadgets, watches and accessories, and sports items. To give families more time to prepare their surprises, hot deals and huge discounts will start flying off the shelves as early as June 8 until June 17 at http://pages.lazada.com.ph/wow/i/ph/PHCampaign/fathers-day
