A product from Xiaohongshu: from a post to a purchase
Found an item on Xiaohongshu? We help identify the required option and arrange purchasing from a seller. A post shows an idea; for an order, we agree the product, store, price and delivery.
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.

Product purchasing
Once a specific seller has been found, we agree the product and purchase terms, check the invoice and arrange payment. A review or reference link helps describe the request but does not replace the seller's offer.

Sourcing and selection
We will find the specific product from a review or select an alternative. We will translate the description and reviews. 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

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 Xiaohongshu before ordering.
We check the payment method
We check purchase availability from the selected seller and agree currency, payment details and expenses before payment.
We clarify seller terms
We help interpret the Chinese product description and seller terms. Purchase-relevant information from reviews is checked against the specific listing and correspondence.
Consolidate purchases
If the goods can be stored and transported together, we agree consolidation at one warehouse and compare the total shipment cost.
Check before shipment
We establish whether photographs, shelf-life checks and completeness checks are possible for the product and seller. Before payment, we state the inspection scope, contractor, price and actions in the event of discrepancies.
Order status support
We help connect a post to a specific product and seller. We retain the product code, option and significant purchase terms.
Returns policy
If a discrepancy is found before international shipment, we will document it and agree the available steps under the seller's rules and the request terms.
Xiaohongshu: from a post to the product
Attach the Xiaohongshu post and a store or product link to your request. A review photo helps explain the request, but an order requires the item number, option and seller.
xiaohongshu.com(opens in a new tab)- Country
- China
For cosmetics, specify the exact name, shade and volume; similar packaging does not mean the same composition.
For clothing, save measurements and material from the listing, rather than just the outfit photo.
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.
