Do you have to pay a deposit when opening a Taobao store?

　　With the rapid development of the e-commerce industry, many people want to enter the e-commerce industry. Opening a Taobao store is the most introductory, so many novices will try to open a Taobao store, but what should we pay attention to when opening a store? One of them is the issue of margin?

　　Do I have to pay a deposit when opening a Taobao store? The editor of How to Open an Online Store wants to tell you that opening a Taobao store is free. After you have completed opening a store and signed an agreement to join consumer insurance (free join), you can click the [Seller Center]-[Baby Management]-[Publish Baby] button to publish the product. However, not all product categories support the release of brand new products, and will depend on the category of the product you publish. Some categories require you to pay a deposit before you can release brand new products. If you want to publish products in this category, you can only publish second-hand products without paying a deposit.

　　There are three situations for deposit payment:

　　You need to pay a deposit before you can release a brand new product category and specific amount.

　　Currently, except for the 10,000 yuan mobile phone type, the basic margin of consumer insurance is paid for 1,000 yuan.

　　Of course, there are some categories that do not support consumer insurance. Although you have agreed to join consumer insurance when you created your store, currently the products of "live (except cats and dogs), real estate, and additional card" do not support consumer insurance, so the consumer insurance logo will not be displayed on the page of this type of product.

　　Warm reminder

　　The margin must be paid in full, otherwise the system will prompt you to "not pay the full margin required by the category". For the "custom amount" you see on the payment page, you can pay any amount greater than 1,000 yuan of basic margin, and there is no cap on it. (Mobile category requires more than 10,000 yuan). The amount required for the main business category shall prevail. However, if the category you sold previously only needs to pay a deposit of 1,000, but mobile phone products are released in the subsequent store, please consciously pay the amount required by the mobile phone category. The repayment entrance is the same as the first payment entrance.

　　If you just opened a store and want to join the margin plan, it is recommended to pay attention to whether there is a "credit account" on the Consumer Insurance page to open the entrance immediately. If yes, you meet the conditions for joining. If not, it is not meeting the conditions for joining. It is recommended to operate the store seriously and understand the margin plan first.

　　After payment, the deposit will be frozen in your Alipay account. You can unfreeze it yourself if you don’t open a store in the future.

　　If the deposit you paid is less than 1,000 yuan due to a series of problems such as after-sales service due to disputes, you need to make a supplementary payment.

　　In order to protect consumer rights, Taobao has now added two new funds: order insurance and account period protection.

　　The above is a brief introduction. When opening a Taobao store, the deposit must be paid according to the situation. If we want to build a Taobao store, then paying the deposit is essential.
