FAQs for Custom Packaging
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs): 1. What if I choose the wrong warehouse for the package? Don't worry, you can contact your agent to change the warehouse of your package in our system. But please double-check the warehouse when you set the package order. 2. What if there isn't my preferred package in your system? You can contact your agent or the customized package agent and tell him or her about your preferred package. Then he or she will come to our supplier and check if there is the one you want. After that, your agent will confirm with you the price, MOQ, and other package details. If you like it, your agent will add it to our system. The following procedure will be the same as above. 3. Why is there a MOQ of some packages? We have the printing machine in our Chinese warehouse, but we can only print the simple logo on some specific packages, such as the zip bag, shipping bag, paper box, and so on. However, we can't print the logo on some materials, such as cloth bags, stickers. So we may need the factory's help. That's why they require the MOQ. Also, if you want to customize the size of your package, usually it may require a MOQ. 4. Will there be customized packages in Excel order or orders placed manually? Yes, as long as you have connected the package with the product in SKU List. 5. Can I combine orders or split orders if this order has a customized package?

How to Connect Packages with Your Products on CJ Platform?
Many CJ customers prefer to attach packages to the products to make the items exquisite. However, they are stopped by the confusing operation of packaging connection on the CJ platform. To make things clear, the article presents a detailed introduction to the aspect. Note: It is highly recommended that your ideal products should be connected with packages all at once as opposed to having them connected separately; that is, many times, as every of your operation will undo your previous attempt; that is, your previous setting will be overlapped. For instance, a gift card that has been connected in your first attempt will not follow when you add a box the next time. You'd have to connect both of them in your second attempt. Here are the major steps: 1. Learn about custom packaging; 2. Connect packaging in Products > Store Products; 3. Connect packaging in Products > My Products; The general steps are as follows. 1.

For automatic orders, please connect packaging in Products > Store Products; Note: Applied to Order: The package will be used for the order. It means that the package is for all the products of an order, not just the connected product. Applied to Product: The package will be used for each connected product. It refers to that the package is only available to the product you connect instead of all products in an order. Let's make it clear. If you place an order with three products, including the product with the connected package, our warehouse staff will only attach the package to the connected product rather than all three products. In the case of bundle products, you may also choose between "Applied to Bundle" and "Applied to Each Product in the Bundle" View connected packaging for each variant. 3. For manual orders or Excel orders, please connect the packaging in Products > My Products; The steps are the same as above.

How to Combine Orders on CJ for the Same Customer?
Order combination can be of great usage under such two situations as below: 1. You can combine orders before payment when one of your customers places two or more orders and wants to receive them in one package. 2. You can combine orders before payment when you yourself want to for convenience. Order combination can save shipping costs for you. However, if combined orders lead to an oversized package, you may need to pay an extra fee. There are two ways for you to combine order: Manual Combination and Automatic Combination. Here are the general steps if you do Manual Combination: 1. Select the orders with which you want to combine in Store Orders. Significantly, the awaiting-combined orders must be from the same store with the same shipping info. Otherwise, it will fail. 2. Read through order information, especially the packaging types and your order number. For packaging types, you can choose between following your package type in Connection and SKU List. The system will automatically identify your product packaging after combination. For your order number, the system will generate a new CJ order number, which only corresponds to one store order number (You can choose the store order number if you have connected your store to CJ). 3. Finally, click Combine, after which you can check the store order number under Orders > Store Orders > Imported. Check the combined order and add it to the cart. Automatically, the CJ order number would begin with the capital "HB". Note: a. You can view the order details before combination via an icon on the right of the order number. b. The tracking number may be only synced to one of the orders in your store. So, you need to upload the tracking number manually and mark it as fulfilled for other orders.

How to Set Up Shipping Formula in Shopify Store?
Shipping is undoubtedly significant for a business, especially for cross-border businesses. This article introduces how to set up a shipping formula in a Shopify store. To start shipping, please complete the following tasks on Shopify: 1. Set up your shipping rates and methods; 2. Add product weights; 3. Choose your preferred package type; 4. Get free package material; 5. Print a test shipping label. 1. Set up your shipping rates and methods. a. Add and manage your shipping locations; By default, the original address that is entered when a Shopify account is created is added as a location. This location is also set to be able to fulfill orders. Make sure that any other locations that you plan to ship from, as well as any apps that fulfill products on your behalf, are added as locations. Note: Before you can use shipping profiles to charge shipping rates based on product and shipping origin, you might need to activate multi-origin shipping. b. Set up your shipping rates; When deciding what to charge buyers for shipping, you need to consider the following options: Exact shipping costs: Charge buyers the same thing that carriers like USPS or Canada Post charge to ship. Flat rate shipping: Charge fixed shipping rates based on order value or weight. For example, charge $5 to ship anywhere in the United States. Free shipping: Offer free shipping on all orders or set free shipping rules. For example, offer free shipping on orders over $150. Unexpected costs at the checkout are the main reason why buyers don't complete purchases. The most common unexpected costs are for shipping. Make your shipping costs clear on your home or product page to avoid surprises at the checkout. c. Setting up shipping zones. A shipping zone is a group of countries or regions that have the same shipping rates. For example, if your business has a warehouse in Germany that ships to anywhere in Europe for the same flat rate, then you can create a shipping zone that includes all the European countries and charge that same shipping fee to all your European customers. After you've set up shipping zones, you can choose the shipping methods. You can offer several shipping methods for a zone so your customers can choose from a range of delivery times and shipping costs at checkout. 2. Add product weights. Shipping costs are calculated based on the weight and dimensions of your shipment. To calculate accurate shipping costs, add weights to all of the products that you will be shipping. If you’re unsure how much your products weigh, then learn about common product weights or purchase a scale. 3. Choose your preferred package type. If your store is outside of the United States and Canada, then you can add only one preferred package type. If your store is in the United States or Canada, then you can save the dimensions and weights of your preferred package types on the Shipping settings page in your Shopify admin. 4. Get free packing material. Many carriers offer free packaging to use with specific shipping services. Although there is no cost for the packaging, you might need to create a free account with the carrier so that they can send the packaging to you. 5. Print a test shipping label. If a customer pays for shipping, whether for the exact cost or flat rate, then you will receive the payment along with the rest of the funds for their order. When you print shipping labels through Shopify, you will be charged the cost of the label on your Shopify bill. All the specific steps of setting up your shipping formula could be found in the Shopify Help Center. With any uncertainties when you are setting up your store, you could get support from the Shopify group. CJ support team will also be here to help with your dropshipping business, just contact us anytime. -
