ii. Inventory allocationWhat type of products should I pick for FBW? How many?
Merchants should prioritize products that have experienced historically high sales on
Wish. FBW will reach more customers by increasing supply availability and improving
delivery time. Products that have global appeal and that are not subject to seasonal
trends are also good candidates for FBW.
Depending on previous sales data, we recommend starting with an allocation of
20-100 units per SKU for FBW.
Are there certain limitations regarding the size or quantity of product I can ship to
your warehouse at one time?
FBW EU currently only accepts items less than 2kg. Please use your own discretion
and avoid shipping big, bulky items to the warehouse. It doesn’t hurt to ship more units
to the warehouse if you are confident that the inventory is going to move quickly. Keep
in mind that the free storage period of the warehouse is only 90 days. After 90 days
time, you will be responsible for any storage cost.
iii. LogisticsHow should I ship my products to the EU warehouse?
Merchants located in China must utilize SF Express, a logistics service provider, which
will collect packages from you and ship them to the Wish EU warehouse. Merchants
located in the US must email SF Express at [email protected] to schedule
package pick-ups for shipments to the Wish FBW EU warehouse.
What should I do if there is a discrepancy between the inventory I sent to the
warehouse and the SKUs and quantity recorded in the Wish merchant dashboard?
Please allow 48 hours for the FBW EU team to check in inventory upon receipt. If you
believe there is discrepancy for the inbound inventory, you can reach out to us and we
will work with the warehouse to get this cleared up.

days after you create the shipping plan). After you ship products, make sure you click
Ship to warehouse to complete your shipping plan.
Where can I review my FBW Shipping Plans?
To view your Active FBW Shipping Plans, you can navigate to the FBW Menu and click

shipping plan. To view Cancelled, Expired, or Completed FBW Shipping Plans, navigate

iv. RefundsWho will be responsible for post-fulfillment refunds?
Any refund disputes should be filed by the merchant, and will be processed by a Wish
representative promptly. Merchants will be responsible for non-logistics-related
refunds, such as product quality and product functionality. Merchants are not
responsible for logistics-related refunds on orders fulfilled by FBW.
