Purchasing goods from Snapdeal
We help arrange a purchase or trial batch from Snapdeal. We record quantity, options and quality requirements before ordering; agreed inspections and delivery are calculated separately.
What you entrust to OZTA
You choose the product and approve the order terms. We handle the agreed purchase: communicating with the seller, agreeing the invoice, arranging payment and providing status updates. Sourcing, separate inspections and onward delivery are discussed according to your needs.
- 1
Product purchasing
We agree the selected product, option and quantity with the seller, and check their company and payment details and invoice. After your confirmation, we arrange payment and handle order correspondence. Arranging payment of this invoice is already included in the standard purchase-service fee.

Sourcing and selection
We will compare catalogue offers with Flipkart and Amazon India by specifications, terms and final cost. Standalone sourcing is charged separately. The published package applies to China; for another market or an extended brief, we will prepare an estimate before work begins.
Supplier search scope and price - 3
Warehouse inspection
We will clarify whether photographs and checks of quality and measurements are available. We agree on the inspection scope, contractor, price and actions in the event of discrepancies before payment.

Arrange delivery
We consider air delivery from India after checking the goods and route. If conditions allow, we agree on combining small purchases into one shipment.

Import documents
We will clarify the documents and import charges required for your product in the destination country. Clearance costs will be shown separately in the estimate.

Order status
A paid order has a responsible coordinator. We agree on a communication channel and pass on confirmed status updates from the seller and contractors. If conditions change, we explain why and discuss the next step; tracking depends on the carrier.
Order assistance
We check the product, seller, payment and delivery from Snapdeal before ordering.
Checking availability
Before payment, we check the available ordering channel, receiving address and specific transaction terms. We do not promise a payment method or registration without this review.
Checking the price
Snapdeal specialises in budget goods; availability and price depend on the listing.
Checking availability
Craft items, regional Indian clothing and goods from small workshops.
Inspection within the agreed scope
For a consignment, we agree on acceptance criteria, sampling and a photo report. The inspection covers the stated scope of work; hidden defects require separate tests.
Consolidate purchases
If the goods can be stored and transported together, we agree consolidation at one warehouse and compare the total shipment cost.
Comparing with Flipkart
We compare Snapdeal and Flipkart by specific product, seller, total cost and delivery terms.
Snapdeal: batch contents and quality
To order from Snapdeal, specify the exact quantity, options and quality requirements. For a trial batch, determine unacceptable defects in advance.

- India
For textiles, material, measurements and colour matching matter, as well as photos.
Batch inspection, samples and photographs are agreed as separate tasks before payment.
How your order proceeds
We first establish the product and purchase terms, then agree the estimate and the steps after purchase. You decide before paying for each stage; product substitutions or budget changes require separate approval.
Link or item number
Send a link or item number. If you have no link, photos and a description are sufficient; specify the option and quantity you need.
Seller and availability
We will clarify availability, included items, condition and shipping from the seller. We will discuss any differences from your request before purchase.
Region and restrictions
We will check whether the product can be purchased and shipped to your country, and which documents and packaging are required.
Price before payment
We will show the product price, delivery to the first warehouse, the OZTA fee and known subsequent costs. We will identify amounts that still depend on weighing, measurement or an external quote. Purchasing begins after your approval and payment for the relevant stage.
From purchase to shipment
After agreement, we arrange the purchase, communicate with the seller and provide updates. Only the agreed checks and packaging are carried out before onward shipment. We record the procedure for discrepancies or returns in advance.
Purchasing, quality inspection and transport involve different work. We record what is included in the order, who performs individual actions and which documents you will receive. Returns depend on the seller, stage of fulfilment and agreed terms.
How to calculate the purchase-on-behalf fee
We use the agreed goods price from the seller and apply the rate from the table. Delivery is not part of the fee calculation.
Rate by product price
Minimum OZTA purchasing fee: $20
- Less than $1,000
- 10%
- From $1,000, but less than $5,000
- 9%
- From $5,000, but less than $10,000
- 8%
- From $10,000, but less than $20,000
- 7%
- From $20,000
- 6%
The minimum OZTA purchasing fee is $20. For example: goods at $50 + fee of $20 = $70, excluding delivery, import costs, insurance and bank costs.
Fee calculation example
- Seller's goods price
- $2 000
- OZTA fee
- $180
- $2 000 × 9% = $180
- Goods + fee
- $2 180
This covers only the goods and fee. Seller delivery and onward freight, import charges, insurance, banking and foreign-exchange costs are separate.
What the fee includes
- One seller, up to 10 agreed items and one planned shipment.
- Checking company and payment details and purchasing terms, and agreeing the seller’s invoice.
- Payment of the seller’s invoice is already included in the fee; we do not charge a second percentage for it.
- Seller communication, order statuses and OZTA report.
What is paid separately
- Seller delivery to our warehouse and onward transport.
- Import charges, insurance and warehouse operations, when needed.
- Bank and foreign-exchange costs, and any additional work after agreement.
If additional contractor work is needed
For additional work: the provider’s price + 10% for OZTA, with a minimum OZTA coordination fee of $20 per agreed assignment. If coordination is already included in a paid package, there is no second fee. Samples and their delivery are paid separately. We do not apply this percentage to government charges, import taxes or the insurance premium.
