JD.com expands free shipping offer

The minimum order value for free shipping is $8.2.

JD.com extends its free shipping for a minimum order value of around $8.2 (CN¥59), covering all third-party products in the online marketplace.

The marketplace on 4 March only offered free shipping to 90% of its third-party products.

Due to this, merchants who do not offer free shipping or offer it for purchases costing over $8.2 are required to adjust their shipping policies by the end of March.

The changes can apply to individual items or multiple products, with particular exclusions for specific items.
