4. Online Shipping

JL only supports online shipping.

“Online shipping” means that you obtain the labels and tracking numbers from the Merchant Help Center, print out the labels, adhere them to the packages, and then pass the packages to the company that is responsible for the pick-up service. Generated labels can be found in the Merchant Help Center.

To use online shipping, you should first set up the API. Links to introductions to the API settings are available below:

Online shipping is one of the most important things in JL. So, if you run into problems with setting it up, please contact our merchant support team at merchant@joom.com.

Merchant shall be responsible for ensuring compliance with all applicable terms and conditions for the products, including but not limited to the pricing, quantity, specifications, quality standards, inspection, shipping etc.

JL may refuse to process or cancel, without liability for any losses or damages arising out of or in connection with such refusal or cancellation, any online transaction which in JL’s reasonable opinion has insufficient information to constitute a binding contract.

JL will not be responsible for the quality, safety, lawfulness or availability of the products or services offered under any online transaction. The Merchant agrees not to hold JL and its affiliates and agents liable for any losses, damages, claims, liabilities, costs or expenses arising from any online transactions, including any breach, partial performance or non-performance of the online transaction by the other party to the transaction.

  • Ship packages to the required company at your own expense; or
  • Apply for a package pick-up service.

Joom will carry all costs incurred during the package pick-up service.

JL supports three (3) shipping methods to Territory:

  • Non-registered Mail (“NRM”);
  • Simplified Registered Mail (“SRM”);
  • Registered Mail (“RM”).

Details on each of the shipping methods which are supported by JL are available in the Merchant Help Center. When the shipment is done via JL, the shipping method will be automatically determined by Joom system based on product price. This means Merchants don’t have to manually choose shipping methods for JL.

Fees which You will be charged with for using of each of the shipping methods are calculated based on the weight of the product to be shipped and their price. Information on such fees and the method of their calculation can be found in the Merchant Help Center.

7. Shipping Weight

The difference between the shipping weight given by the Merchant and the factual shipping weight of the package shall not be more than those specified in the Merchant Help Center. Inaccurate shipping weight may lead to additional logistics costs and extension in the delivery period, and in some cases, failure of delivery, and all this will have a negative impact on Merchant performance metrics.
