Frequently asked questions.
Answers for your first purchase and for planning recurring procurement.
Can I enquire without a 1688 account?
Yes. Send us a link or describe the item, variant and quantity. We will clarify the details and costs with you before you approve the purchase.
My goods have already been ordered. Can you still ship them?
Yes, we can review a request for receiving, consolidation or onward shipping. Tell us the type of goods, number of parcels and Swiss destination postcode.
Can I request supplier payment only?
Yes. For a specific purchase, you can request payment assistance separately. We confirm the order, recipient, amount, currency and terms before your approval.
What does a goods inspection cover?
We agree the scope in advance. Depending on the order, it can include quantity, variant, visible damage and photos. Functional tests, laboratory tests and full inspections require a separately agreed scope.
