AliExpress Extends 48-Hour Shipping Time to Global Scale, New Products on U.S. Site Require Semi-Managed Integration

[Ebrun Original] On January 8th, AliExpress announced that starting from February 19th, the 48-hour online time (logistics information available within 48 hours after the user's payment) will be extended from the U.S. site to global sites. Starting from late February, all new products on the U.S. site must be released through a semi-managed process. After February 19th, POP products that have not joined full hosting will have their recommended traffic affected.

Previously, AliExpress announced that the basic requirement for order shipping on the U.S. site would be adjusted from 72 hours to 48 hours, and 48-hour online time will become the basic threshold for SD/large promotion sign-ups, with corresponding traffic tilts based on timeliness.

In addition, AliExpress announced that it will remove the economy route from the U.S. on February 19th, and will gradually expand to other countries from March, making standard and faster routes a standard choice for logistics routes in more countries.

The official announcement shows that AliExpress plans to complete a global upgrade of the platform as the main mode by March 31st, and hosting will be the main mode of the platform.

(Benefits of joining semi-management)

Some sellers have indicated that emphasizing semi-management and enhancing user experience may become the core of AliExpress's market in the next year. Sellers with strong sourcing and product capabilities will be able to enjoy more dividends.
