ii. Inventory allocationWhat type of products should I pick for FBW? How many?

Merchants should prioritize products that have experienced historically high sales on

Wish. FBW will reach more customers by increasing supply availability and improving

delivery time. Products that have global appeal and that are not subject to seasonal

trends are also good candidates for FBW.

Depending on previous sales data, we recommend starting with an allocation of

20-100 units per SKU for FBW.

Are there certain limitations regarding the size or quantity of product I can ship to

your warehouse at one time?

There are no weight or size limitations, but if you have concerns about shipping big,

bulky items to the warehouse, please contact [email protected]. It doesn’t hurt to ship

more units to the warehouse if you are confident that the inventory is going to move

quickly. Keep in mind that the free storage period of the warehouse is only 90 days.

After 90 days time, you will be responsible for any storage cost.

iii. LogisticsHow should I ship my products to the FBW US warehouse?

Merchants can use their own carrier and/or freight forwarder to ship directly to the

FBW US warehouse. Merchants are responsible for their products clearing U.S.

customs. The Wish FBW warehouse is not responsible for paying duties or notifying

merchants about unpaid duties. The Wish FBW warehouse may refuse to accept

inbound shipments if duties are unpaid.

What should I do if there is a discrepancy between the inventory I sent to the

warehouse and the SKUs and quantity recorded in the Wish merchant dashboard?

Please allow 48 hours for the FBW US team to check in inventory upon receipt. If you

believe there is a discrepancy with inbound inventory, you can reach out to Wish and

we will work with the warehouse to resolve.

shipping plan. To view Cancelled, Expired, or Completed FBW Shipping Plans, navigate

and product functionality. Wish will review all logistics-related refunds to determine

which party is responsible. Any refund disputes should be filed by the merchant, and

will be processed by a Wish representative promptly.
