  • Placing an order constitutes an offer to purchase the specified item(s) at the listed price, plus applicable delivery charges.

Seller Terms

Independent merchants and boutique owners may apply to become registered sellers on Zebaish. To qualify and remain an active seller partner, sellers must complete identity verification (including providing a valid Pakistani CNIC number and CNIC document images) and adhere to platform standards.

Sellers act as independent business partners and are solely responsible for the authenticity, legal ownership, quality, inventory levels, accurate descriptions, and prompt fulfillment of the products they offer on Zebaish.

5

Seller Product Listing Rules

All product listings published on Zebaish must adhere to high standards of quality and accuracy. Sellers must comply with the following listing guidelines:

  • Authenticity & Accuracy: Listings must accurately depict the product title, brand, fabric composition, color, size, condition (e.g. leftover stock, original boutique piece), and price.
  • Stock Availability: Sellers must only list items that are currently in stock and available for immediate dispatch. Listing out-of-stock items is prohibited.
  • Clear Product Images: Listings must include clear, representative photos of the actual product being sold. Misleading or deceptive imagery is prohibited.
6

Orders & Order Fulfillment

Once a buyer completes checkout, relevant order details are transmitted to the respective seller(s) for processing and dispatch. Sellers are expected to pack and dispatch orders through verified courier channels in a timely manner.

Zebaish provides order status tracking for buyers and sellers. Order status milestones (e.g., Pending, Processing, Shipped, Delivered, Cancelled) reflect real-time updates provided by sellers and logistic partners.

7

Seller 3-Day Pending-Order Requirement

To maintain high customer satisfaction and prevent order delays, Zebaish enforces a strict 3-Day Pending-Order Requirement for all seller partners.

When a seller receives a customer order, the seller must action, pack, and dispatch the pending order within 3 calendar days. If a seller fails to fulfill eligible pending orders within 3 days:

  • The system automatically sets the seller's pending-order restriction status flag (pending_orders_inactive) to active.
  • The seller account status will be restricted or changed to Inactive, disabling product listing management and storefront operational features.
  • Account access will remain restricted until the seller completes dispatch of outstanding pending orders or resolves the pending order backlog with Zebaish operations.
8

Seller Commission & Payment Obligations

Zebaish operates on a transparent commission model. Sellers agree to pay Zebaish the applicable commission on sales generated through the marketplace.

  • Monthly Calculation: Seller commission dues are calculated monthly based on eligible completed orders during the preceding billing period.
  • Payment Deadline: Outstanding monthly commission payments must be remitted by the 5th day of each calendar month.
  • Overdue Dues: If a seller fails to pay required commission dues by the deadline, the system automatically sets the seller commission restriction flag (commission_inactive) to active.
  • Account Impact: The seller's account will be restricted to Inactive status, preventing product management actions until all outstanding commission amounts are fully paid and verified.
9

Account Status, Restrictions, Inactive/Suspended Accounts

Zebaish seller accounts maintain specific operational statuses based on compliance with platform rules:

  • Active: Full access to list products, receive orders, and operate storefront.
  • Inactive: Restricted state triggered by unpaid commissions (commission_inactive), delayed 3-day pending order backlog (pending_orders_inactive), or temporary store pause. Product creation and listing updates are disabled during Inactive status.
  • Suspended: Formally restricted or suspended state (status: Suspended, with optional restriction deadline restricted_until) resulting from serious policy violations, counterfeit listings, or unverified identity credentials. Suspended sellers are barred from marketplace operations.
10

Cancellation, Returns & Refunds

Buyers may request order cancellations prior to dispatch. Once an order is shipped, standard marketplace return and exchange guidelines apply:

  • Eligible Claims: Returns or replacement requests may be initiated for defective items, wrong products received, or items significantly different from their published store description.
  • Condition: Items must be returned unused, unwashed, with original tags, fabric cuts intact, and in original packaging.
  • Resolution: Valid return claims are processed for replacement or refund according to seller exchange terms and Zebaish customer protection guidelines.
11

Product Information & Pricing Errors

While Zebaish and seller partners strive to ensure accurate pricing, stock availability, and specifications, inadvertent typographical or technical pricing errors may occasionally occur.
