The second step is to use a compliant cross-border collection platform with strict wind control and limited to B2B general trade. The third step is to keep complete trade documents, including communication records, PI, logistics declaration forms, etc. for review.

Question 3

Can I use a credit card to collect large B2B orders on an independent station?

Accepted Answer

It is not recommended to use credit cards for large B2B orders. Credit card collection is mainly aimed at small retail sales at the C- side. The handling fee is usually as high as 3% or more and there is a risk of refusal of payment for up to 180 days, which can easily lead to the shortage of money and goods. For B2B trade with large amounts, it is recommended to guide customers to use wire transfers to your exclusive foreign trade collection account. This can not only reduce the handling fee to a very low level, but also completely eliminate the risk of malicious refusal of buyers, and maximize the financial profits and safety of foreign trade enterprises.

Question 4

Which is better than a local collection account or a SWIFT international wire transfer collection?

Accepted Answer

A local receiving account is, in most cases, preferable to a SWIFT international wire transfer. SWIFT wire transfers need to go through multiple intermediate lines, which not only generates tens of dollars per intermediate line deduction, but also usually takes 2 to 5 working days to arrive. The local collection account is equivalent to the buyer's domestic transfer in its country, eliminating the intermediary link. Buyers are not only exempt from high wire transfer fees, but funds can be recorded on the same day or even in real time, greatly reducing transaction costs and increasing buyers' willingness to pay.

Question 5

Is there a hidden deduction for third-party platform settlement and withdrawal to domestic accounts?

Accepted Answer

Formal and compliant third-party platforms do not have hidden deductions in the settlement and withdrawal process. They usually use an open and transparent tiered or fixed rate, and clearly display the real-time exchange rate and the final amount of RMB that can be recorded before the transaction. In order to avoid stepping on the pit, enterprises should pay attention to whether the platform is directly connected to the domestic and foreign bank clearing system, and whether the commitment to exchange transparency. Do not covet informal channels with very low or even zero rates, which tend to operate in the dark on the exchange rate, resulting in a significant reduction in the actual funds received.
