Attention: Shopee Philippines has announced that Economy Local will be available to select sellers who have activated SPX Express starting November 11. Compared to standard shipping channels, Standard Economy offers cheaper shipping fees, with delivery timelines extended by up to 2 days.
Economy Local is a new shipping option that provides lower shipping prices while requiring slightly longer delivery times. It will be available to certain SPX Express-activated vendors and visible to purchasers exclusively during promotion days. This channel accepts goods weighing up to 50kg with dimensions of no more than 150cm x 150cm x 150cm.
To arrange a pickup for a Shopee Economy Local order, go to "My Orders" in the Shopee Seller Centre or app, find the order under the "To Ship" or "To Process" tab, and click on "Arrange Pickup" if it's the only option, or "Arrange Shipment" to select "Pickup". The logistics provider will then pick up the parcel directly from you on an arranged date.
Also, handling logistics is only part of the picture. For e-commerce sellers, having a tool like BigSeller helps bridge the gap between platform management and courier services like Economy Local.
