A product link is not a complete order
The exact SKU, color, quantity, packaging, destination, and prep instructions still need to be made explicit.
Assisted 1688 order

We check the product and supplier, prepare a written quote, and only after you approve do we purchase on 1688. Then we receive, document, prep, and ship.

Assisted 1688 order
Applied only after quote approval.
Quote first
Supplier payment follows approval
Submitting a product is not an order.
Why the sequence matters
The purchase should follow the decision — not replace it.
A low unit price is only one input. The order becomes safer when product match, supplier risk, quantity, cost stack, prep, and handoff are written down before money moves.
A cheap unit price can hide the real cost
China freight, service, prep, international shipping, duty, and tax assumptions can change the decision.
Receiving photos have a defined boundary
Operational evidence can confirm arrival and visible details, but it does not become certification or full third-party QC.
How it works
From product clue to shipping handoff in six written steps.
The first three steps create the decision record. The purchase begins only after your explicit approval.
- 1
Product clue
Paste a 1688 or supplier link, product name, or image and state the quantity you are considering.
- 2
Product check
Review match, MOQ, supplier signals, cost assumptions, missing evidence, and one next-step recommendation.
- 3
Written quote
Confirm the selected SKU, order quantity, included services, exclusions, and payment target.
- 4
Your approval
Approve, ask for changes, request more evidence, sample first, or stop. No purchase happens before this.
- 5
China receiving
Supplymo receives the goods and records the agreed quantity, package, photo, and prep evidence.
- 6
Prep and handoff
Approved prep is completed and the goods are handed to the selected carrier or your nominated 3PL.
Evidence handoff
What changes after approval is visible.
The workspace keeps the quote, payment state, receiving evidence, prep instructions, and handoff together so you do not have to reconstruct the order from chat messages.
- The approved quote remains the scope reference.
- Receiving evidence is dated and attached to the order.
- Prep and shipping handoff follow written instructions.

Our trust boundary
What the order record confirms — and what it does not.
Evidence is useful when its scope is precise. Supplymo separates observable order facts from estimates, specialist checks, and outcomes controlled by third parties.
What the record can confirm
- The submitted product clue and selected order brief
- The written quote, included scope, exclusions, and approval state
- China receiving, quantity, package, and photo evidence when included
- Approved prep work and the recorded shipping or 3PL handoff
What it does not guarantee
- Full third-party quality inspection, laboratory testing, or certification unless separately arranged
- Lowest-price, supplier-quality, or sales-performance promises
- Duty, tax, customs-clearance, freight, and delivery-time outcomes controlled by third parties
- Legal, customs, tax, or marketplace-compliance advice
A good fit for
- A first or test 1688 order that needs a written quote before payment
- Ecommerce teams that want China receiving and order-linked evidence
- Orders needing straightforward labels, polybags, repacking, or a 3PL handoff
Not the right fit for
- Counterfeit, infringing, dangerous, or restricted goods
- Complex factory development, certification programs, or open-ended procurement
- Orders that depend on predetermined customs, freight, quality, or delivery outcomes
For higher-risk products, treat a sample, specialist inspection, laboratory test, or compliance review as a separate decision before the production order.
Assisted 1688 order FAQ
Questions to answer before the purchase.
These answers apply to the Global assisted-order workflow and avoid destination-specific tax or customs promises.
What is an assisted 1688 order?
It is an optional execution service after a product check. Supplymo prepares a written quote, waits for your approval, purchases on 1688, receives the goods in China, records the agreed evidence, coordinates basic prep, and arranges shipping or a 3PL handoff.
Does submitting a product create a purchase?
No. Submitting a product starts a check or quote request only. It does not message or pay a supplier, place a 1688 order, or commit you to an assisted-order service.
Do you pay the supplier before quote approval?
No. Supplymo does not purchase from the supplier until the written quote and its scope have been approved by you.
What can the written quote include?
The quote can separate product cost, China domestic freight, the assisted-order fee, agreed prep, international shipping assumptions, and any evidence or special handling included in the scope. Destination duty and tax remain estimates or buyer responsibilities unless explicitly stated otherwise.
What evidence is provided after China receiving?
When receiving and evidence are included in the approved scope, the workspace can record arrival photos, package condition, quantity counts, labels, and agreed prep evidence. This is operational confirmation, not a laboratory test or full third-party quality inspection.
Can Supplymo coordinate prep and shipping or a 3PL handoff?
Yes. After receiving, Supplymo can coordinate approved prep such as polybags or labels, then quote a shipping route or hand the goods to your nominated carrier or 3PL. The exact work depends on the approved instructions and the physical goods.
Are duty, customs, freight, or delivery outcomes guaranteed?
No. Duty, VAT or GST, customs clearance, freight price, and delivery time depend on the destination, classification, route, carrier, and current rules. Supplymo can document estimates and assumptions but does not guarantee those outcomes.
When can an assisted order be cancelled?
A request can stop before quote approval without creating a purchase. After approval and purchase, supplier payments, domestic freight, prep, or shipping may already be committed, so cancellation depends on the actual order state and the written refund policy.
