Online shopping is gradually catching up in
the Philippines and being adopted not just as an alternative means of shopping
but a natural way of shopping. Thanks to Lazada
online shopping is no longer a novelty. This online shopping website have
started a revolution of sorts and of course they revolutionized the online
shopping industry by introducing innovations that has made online shopping
accessible, convenient and feasible for every Juan in the Philippines. The
steady ascend of the number of local consumers and shoppers that does online
shopping comes from the fact that Internet connection in the country is very
easy to come by. Thanks to our excellent communications infrastructure that
made our country primed for the emerging e-commerce business. The excellent and
strategic communications infrastructure was also the main reason why the
Philippines has been a BPO hot spot and has allowed us to compete with other
countries like India. Anyway, online shopping definitely has a place to go here
in the Philippines as evidenced by the huge influx of online shopping websites.
However, along with the influx of these online shopping websites comes the
question of reliability. Like how reliable are the websites and how a new
online shopper can distinguish which ones are legit and which ones are not. If
you are a new online shopper, don’t fret though because online shopping is safe
if you know how to spot the reliable ones as opposed to those websites that are
quite vulnerable. Here are some of the things that one should do before getting
into any transactions with an online shopping company
#1. Read the reviews. Check out what people
has to say about the online shopping website you are getting into. Blogs and
forums are great places to check out what other consumers opinion of a certain
online shopping website is. You will mostly come across un-biased feedbacks on
these forums which is great and very helpful for you in making an informed
decision.
#2. Subscribe to the website’s mailing
list. A reliable online shopping website normally emails their subscribers with
information about new products and promotions available on the website
#3. Give their customer service toll free
number a buzz to check if it is working and if there is someone manning the
phones. If the phone number does not ring or no one is picking up then chances
are you are dealing with a not so scrupulous entity.
#4. Check if the company provides its
shoppers alternative ways to make a payment. Reliable companies are normally
flexible when it comes to accepting payments for their products and does not
just stick to credit card payments.
#5. Last but not the least on the list (hmm
that phrase rolls off the tongue quite easily ain’t it?) is the seal of
certification coming from PCI-DSS. PCI-DSS is some sort of a council or
committee comparable to ISO that sets the standard of security for online
shopping companies involved in processing credit card payments. This company
ensures that the website is secured by conducting annual audits on the safety
procedures of online shopping companies. Having their logo on the website is a
guarantee that your transactions are safe and secured.
Lazada Philippines pretty much got
everything covered in regards to the items on this list which means that the
site is absolutely safe and reliable. Enjoy worry-free online shopping in the
Philippines’ online shopping mall.
