About the platform
Alibaba is the largest B2B platform in the world
Alibaba.com is an export showcase for Chinese and international manufacturers. Unlike 1688 (domestic market), Alibaba is focused on foreign buyers: English interface, prices in dollars, Trade Assurance to protect transactions. But actually working with suppliers requires experience - MOQs, samples, price negotiations.

Barriers
What buyers face on Alibaba
Alibaba is a powerful tool. But without experience it is easy to lose money.
Typical problems
Trade Assurance does not cover all risks. Some suppliers ask for direct transfer.
The supplier promises one quality, but delivers another. Descriptions are vague.
MOQ is too high. The minimum order is $5,000, and we need $500.
Trading company pretends to be a factory. The 20–30% markup is hidden in the price.
Returning the container back is more expensive than the shipment itself. The dispute drags on for months.
Solutions OZTA
We pay only through Trade Assurance. Money is protected until quality is confirmed.
We agree on specifications in writing. We fix the quality in the contract and on samples.
We agree to reduce the MOQ. For the first order, you can often start with 30–50% of the stated amount.
We check licenses, history, visit the factory through partners. We distinguish the manufacturer from the reseller.
We control the quality before shipment. We solve problems on the spot - before the cargo leaves China.
Lifehacks
Tips for working with Alibaba
How not to overpay and get what you ordered.
Examination
Verified ≠ reliable. Check deeper
The Verified status indicates that the company exists. No more. Request photos of the factory, licenses and samples before paying for a large batch.
Samples
Always start with a trial order
A $50-$200 sample will save you thousands on a defective batch. Check quality, packaging and timing before a large order.
RFQ
Use RFQ instead of search
Describe the product in Request for Quotation - receive offers from 10+ suppliers within 24 hours. More convenient than writing to everyone.
Contract
Record everything in PI (Proforma Invoice)
Price, MOQ, terms, quality, packaging, penalties for defects - everything should be in the Proforma Invoice. Verbal agreements don't work.
