World Market Express debuts "Plug and Play" International Shopping Cart for U.S. eCommerce Merchants Targeting Overseas Expansion
At the Affiliate Summit WEST held in Las Vegas, World Market Express previewed a no-risk, low-cost offering that allows U.S. eCommerce merchants to market, sell and ship to customers outside of the U.S.—where 2/3 of the global eCommerce market is located.
/Utah News Articles/ - OREM, UT, July 31, 2007 - Along with growth in Asia, eCommerce in Europe is growing 51% faster than in the U.S., and Asia is growing even faster with the #2 and #3 eCommerce markets in the world being Japan and China, respectively.
International payment systems, foreign currencies, confusing international shipping procedures, and complicated international duties and customs requirements have severely limited U.S. eCommerce merchants ability to sell to customers in other countries. Currently, less than 50% of U.S. merchants will even ship outside of the U.S. and less than 8% can take overseas payments other than via a U.S. bank-sponsored credit card or possibly PayPal.
According to World Market Express COO, Kurt Haug, "World Market Express fixes the problems associated with selling overseas. In fact, World Market Express makes selling products outside of the U.S. as easy as selling right next door. Merchants, consumers, affiliates all benefit from our fast, intuitive approach to simplifying global eCommerce."
The merchant receives payment in U.S. dollars and ships to a U.S. address—just as with any other eCommerce transaction. And international consumers are able to see the total cost of their purchase—including international shipping and customs duties and taxes—in their local currency prior to making payment via their preferred payment method.
There are no setup fees, monthly "maintenance fees" or other costs to the merchant. World Market Express simply takes a percentage sales on a revenue share basis similar to a typical affiliate program.
Merchants, affiliate networks, eCommerce platform vendors and eCommerce/affiliate sales and support organizations interested in dramatically expanding their reach—and that of their clients and customers-- via World Market Express can contact Karla Mercer directly at kmercer@worldmarketexpress.com.
