Yumbles FAQS
How do I set up my shipping rates on Yumbles?
On Yumbles, sellers have the flexibility to set up their own shipping rates based on product type, weight, or order value. It’s crucial to ensure that these rates are competitive and reflective of the actual costs to encourage customer purchases.
What’s the process for handling returns on Yumbles?
Yumbles has a return policy that sellers need to adhere to. However, for perishable goods, the return policy might differ. Sellers should familiarise themselves with Yumbles’ terms and also clearly communicate their own return procedures to customers.
Can I use Yumbles’ storage facilities or do I need to manage my own inventory?
Yumbles primarily operates as a platform connecting sellers with buyers, meaning sellers typically manage their own inventory. However, it’s always a good idea to check any updated services or partnerships Yumbles may offer.
How can I ensure my perishable items stay fresh during transit?
As Yumbles focuses on gourmet and artisan foods, many sellers deal with perishable items. It’s vital to use appropriate packaging, like insulated boxes or ice packs, and opt for expedited shipping when necessary to ensure products reach customers in prime condition.
Are there specific packaging guidelines or branding requirements for products sold on Yumbles?
While Yumbles might provide guidelines or recommendations to ensure a consistent and premium unboxing experience for customers, sellers are generally responsible for their branding and packaging. It’s beneficial to review any guidelines set by Yumbles and ensure your packaging is both functional (for product protection) and aesthetically pleasing.
