Post Selling・Comment +1・Keyword +1

6.    Set the Product Keywords

 

Merchants have to set one set of “Keyword” for each product or product variant.

The “Keyword” cannot be repeated within the same post.

The same “Keywords” can be used in different posts.

 

When customers place an order on the post, they must comment with the specified “Keyword” and order “Quantity” for the system to recognize it as a valid order.

 

“Keyword” Standard:

-         Must include complete “Keyword”

 

“Quantity” Standard:

-         Must include Plus sign “+” or Multiplication sign “x” followed by a number

-         The Plus sign “+” or Multiplication sign “x” must be connected to the number without any space in between

 

Comments not meeting the above standards will not be automatically recognized as valid orders.

 

For example, if the merchant has set the product “Keyword” as “White” to auto-receive post orders.

 

Examples complying with the “Auto-receive Post Orders”：

White +1, White x1, white +1, buy white X1, I want white X1

 

Examples not complying with the “Auto-receive Post Orders” and the reasons：

WH + 1 (Complete “Keyword” not included, left space between Plus sign “+” and the number）

White x 1 (Left space between Multiplication sign “x” and the number)

Want one in white color (No valid “Number” has been entered)

I want to buy a white one (No valid “Number” has been entered)

 

 

If the post includes only one product without any variations, customers can directly enter “+1” and the system will automatically recognize it as a valid order.
