What is the bonanza global shipping service?

What is it? How does it work? Are you a participant? How does it benefit you?

I scanned the TOS, but no overview of program, and at bottom saw button to click to join. I also put Bonanza Global Shipping Service in search in the community, and nothing came up.

Thanks!
Sandi

“As a Bonanza seller, you can opt into the Global Shipping Service from your account settings page.” Can someone point out exactly where the opt in is located? I’ve looked all through the account settings….not finding it anywhere.

OMG! I was looking under settings… didn’t even think to look at the top of the dashboard! Thanks so much!!

For the first time ever I am thinking of selling internationally because of this Global Shipping Service available here. Thank you for posting this Sandi![URL removed]

EmbellishMart says: August 17, 2016

Ok, thanks a lot!

EmbellishMart says: August 17, 2016

@CCMom That’s why I haven’t clicked “Not Now” in case can’t find link later. Just looked everywhere and don’t see one other than that.

EmbellishMart says: August 17, 2016

@HilltopCast You’re very welcome! Been dragging my feet for ages [URL removed] overseas shipping. Crazy rates now have not helped. Have recently opened up to evaluating requests on case-by-case basis. Need to keep my operations simple as possible, lol.

InspiredCreations says: August 17, 2016

I opted into the Global Shipping option and while it was updating, the page closed out. How in the world do I get back to the link? There is no Global Shipping Service button on the left side of the Selling Dashboard area.

EmbellishMart says: August 18, 2016

Thanks, BonanzaShelly!

loves_birds says: August 19, 2016

How does this work if you currently offer “Free Shipping”?

EmbellishMart says: August 20, 2016

@loves_birds Have you asked Support? I didn’t see any explanation [URL removed] that on the info page.

I am considering Bonanza’s global shipping service after reading this post. I normally do not ship international orders but really like the option of sending it to the Kentucky shipping center. I like this option and the additional factor that there is tracking along the way.

Thanks for posting this question Sandi!

I am in the process of activating Global Shipping right now. It also looks like there is an option to deactivate if you prefer not to participate. Mine is showing as updating right now. I am not sure how long it will take and will have to let you know once it does.

Good luck with sales and let me know if you went with the option.

EmbellishMart says: August 18, 2016

Have not deleted any of those promotional banners, because maybe one day I’ll want to participate in one of those things, & banner links will be convenient.

EmbellishMart says: August 18, 2016

Customseatcreations, know it wasn’t your fault that the page closed out, lol.

EmbellishMart says: August 18, 2016

@Becky You’re very welcome!

EmbellishMart says: August 18, 2016

Signed up, and process has been cycling for some time now. I’ll leave that window open and let it do it’s thing until it stops, lol. Hope it finishes though, before it stops!

EmbellishMart says: August 18, 2016

Still cycling. Wonder if it’s stuck?

EmbellishMart says: August 18, 2016

@Becky Did your processing end? Mine still cycling after hrs. Contacted support.

EmbellishMart says: August 20, 2016

[URL removed] Got response from Support, and as BeadJewelryByAnita said, program on hold to work out kinks with Pitney. I was told to close out processing window, and that it would finish eventually. It had cycled overnight and STILL didn’t end.

I dont see the global shipping service option. Do you have to have a paid Bonanza membership?

no you do not need a membership…Go to selling dashboard..right in the middle of the [URL removed] Ship globally with ease. Join the Bonanza Global Shipping Service.

farfan_entertainment says: August 18, 2016

I can’t find that Global Shipping Service option either. You would think it will be prominently displayed in my page. Will contact them directly.

EmbellishMart says: August 18, 2016

That is what CCMom and I commented on, not seeing a link in admin panels if center page banner link was deleted. Hopefully, someone will post where it is.

BeadJewelryByAnita says: August 18, 2016

Am contacting support to find out more.

BeadJewelryByAnita says: August 19, 2016

Integration problems with Pitney Bowes. Wish I could edit accidently posted last comment!

HI everyone!!

I aam doing the global shipping via Bonanza. A word of caution.

I joined the program a few weeks ago and found this to be a problem, at least in my booth. The Global Shipping Program DOES NOT distinguish items that are not able to ship international. It went thru all my items listed, and mark all of them eligible. I had to go back into each item to remove the items that can’t be shipped internationally. For instance, perfumes, colognes are examples.

I know that’s not what it says in the documentation for the Global Shipping program documentation. Even came here and asked about it..then I fixed them (I hope)

I believe it could be a wonderful program with some more tweeking, otherwise you need to know before hand if the item can be shipped by air.

I hope this helps.

P.S.
I can’t find any link or information in my booth as to the program, say I wanted to turn it off. Can someone send me a screenshot on where it is cause apparently I can’t follow the direction listed above LOL

loves_birds says: August 19, 2016

You can’t ship “Christmas crackers” either. ![URL removed]

EmbellishMart says: August 20, 2016

@Once_Again Thanks! That is a serious concern, especially for those with hundreds/thousands of listings.
