Problem Scenario: Store Transfer Challenges

Sellers often face difficulties when transferring their Temu stores due to unclear procedures, time-consuming processes, or lack of guidance. For example, one seller, Xiao Li, attempted to transfer his store to a partner but encountered issues with account verification and order data migration. This led to delays in product listings and loss of sales opportunities.

• Unclear procedures for transferring store ownership
• Data migration challenges between accounts
• Loss of sales performance metrics during transfer
• Potential risk of account suspension if not handled properly

Underlying Logic: Why Store Transfers Are Necessary

Store transfers are essential for business restructuring, partnership changes, or team reorganization. According to Temu's official policy, "Store ownership can be transferred under specific conditions to ensure continued compliance and operational stability." The process involves verifying both the current and new owner's eligibility, ensuring all pending orders and reviews are resolved, and updating the store’s legal and financial information.

Temu requires that the original seller must have no active disputes, unresolved refunds, or unfulfilled orders at the time of transfer. The new owner must also meet Temu's seller requirements, including having a valid business license and payment method.

Solution: Step-by-Step Store Transfer Process

The store transfer process on Temu follows a structured workflow, as outlined in the latest Temu Seller Policy (2024 Update). Below is a step-by-step solution:

1. Preparation: Ensure the store has no active disputes, refunds, or pending orders. Verify the new owner’s eligibility through the Seller Central.
2. Initiate Transfer Request: Log into the Seller Central, navigate to Account Settings > Store Transfer, and submit a formal request with the new owner’s details.
3. Verification: Temu will verify the identity and compliance status of both the current and new owners. This may take up to 7 business days.
4. Approval and Completion: Once approved, the store ownership is transferred, and the new owner gains full access to the store dashboard and inventory management tools.

This process ensures a smooth transition and maintains the integrity of the store’s performance metrics.

Case Study: Successful Store Transfer

A real-world example is the case of "TechGadgets Co.", a Chinese electronics seller on Temu. They needed to transfer their store to a newly established subsidiary to streamline operations. By following the official transfer procedure, they completed the process within 5 business days without any disruption in sales or customer satisfaction.
