Selling on Wish

The big commotion around Wish is hardly comparable to other marketplaces. Wish grew fast and with help of Youtube hauls, aimed advertisement and news articles Wish was hard to miss. In 2018 Sweden customs had a big issue with packages, many from Wish, as the customer required to pay their customs fee to claim the package. Wish solved this by entering a special agreement with Swedish logistic company PostNord to avoid the customer having their package stuck at customs.Wish is one of the easiest marketplaces to get started with – You don’t have to categorize a single product!

In this article we will go through the basics of selling on Wish.
