The procedures and costs for opening a cross-border e-commerce store on AliExpress are as follows:

The first step is registration and certification. First, AliExpress sellers need to register a corporate account on the AliExpress platform. This account will be the login account for the store in the future. Sellers must keep the information used during registration. Then carry out corporate Alipay certification, which will bind our store to corporate Alipay.

The second step is category access. After completing the previous step, sellers need to choose their own AliExpress store sales plan. The sales plan is divided into basic sales plan and standard sales plan. In general, novice sellers are advised to choose the basic sales plan. Select the store type, business category and trademark. AliExpress store types are divided into specialty stores, franchise stores and official stores. Sellers need to provide different registration materials according to their needs. If they operate a brand, they need to complete the trademark qualification application. Then wait for AliExpress to review (the longest review time is 10 working days).

The third step is to pay the registration fee of the corresponding store after passing the review. The store registration is completed. At this time, the seller can publish his own products in the store.

2. AliExpress store opening fees:

1. Deposit

The deposit for general categories is 10,000. The deposit for real people is relatively high, at 50,000. The deposit for e-cigarettes and mobile phones is 30,000. The deposit for some special categories requires specific consultation with AliExpress officials. The deposit can be withdrawn at any time.

2. Trademark fee

The trademark registration application fee is generally around 300-500, in order to build your own brand and deepen the impression of buyers.

3. Category commission

This refers to the commission that AliExpress will deduct based on the sales of the store. The commission varies for different categories and is generally controlled between 5-8%.

4. Marketing costs

If you want your store's products to be seen and purchased by more consumers, you need to invest certain operating costs. AliExpress has two main marketing methods. One is the through train, which will give priority to displaying your products to consumers as much as possible. When buyers click on the displayed promotional products, the AliExpress platform will charge sellers a certain promotion fee; the other is affiliate marketing, and the platform will also charge a certain commission.
