Similarly, according to the Statista reports Walmart.com is the 3rd most visited marketplace of the United States, with 87 million monthly users, making it the hot destination to sell their products.

 

Advantages of Selling on Walmart.com and Jet.com

Last year, Walmart.com in a cash-strapped deal purchased Jet.com for $3.3 billion dollars, enabling Jet.com to thrust much needed money and with Walmart's exhaustive network and infrastructure Jet.com and Walmart.com are well settled to grow together.  So here are the prime benefits that online sellers can extract from these 2 platforms:

 

Huge Exposure:

Both the E-commerce marketplaces have the high exposure as stated earlier; Walmart attracts 87 million visitors monthly, however the figures for Jet.com are not so staggering — over 4 million visitors — nevertheless it has a great following due to its offering the lowest prices.

 

No Monthly and Annual Listing fee:

Unlike some other largest marketplaces, neither Walmart nor Jet.com charges any monthly or yearly listing fee from online sellers, who only have to pay (commission) once the sales of their products happen. Moreover, Jet.com has a dynamic pricing structure which brings innovation and sellers can price their products in a way that compels visitors to buy more.

 

Flexible Returns Policy:

Walmart and Jet.com allow the sellers to draft their own shipping policies. Although they have set the guidelines to ensure the highest degree of customer service, they largely permit sellers to draft their own policies.

And among other benefits include credibility that these marketplaces carry with them, the uber cool customer support, and effortless transactions. The benefits don't end here.

 

The Affordable Way to Sell on Jet.com and Walmart.com:

3dcart has two extensions (for U.S. users only) in its app store that make selling on Walmart.com and Jet.com easier, and they are affordable too.

 

These two apps automate the selling operations and enable 3dcart users to accept and process orders from Walmart and Jet.com from their 3dcart store itself without having to leave their online store.

 

Some of the features of these two integrations are:

  • Catalogue Product Listing & Synchronized Product Edits
  • Accurate Inventory Synchronization & Rejected Products Notification
  • Archive & Unarchive Products
  • Automated & Manual Order Import Mechanism with Auto Order Acknowledge Feature
  • Convenient Shipment with ShipWorks/ShipStation
  • Bulk import products from your 3dcart store to Jet.com and Walmart.com
  • Automatically import newly added products on Jet.com and Walmart.com
  • Have the option to sync quantity periodically
  • Auto-updating of the inventory with full product details, including professional images

 

As multi-channelling is not easy, the chance is higher to lose track of inventory or mis-ship an order. Here, the integration apps of 3dcart enable intelligent automation to rescue online sellers from all the manual work of feeding the product data, product edit, inventory updating and all other such operations.
