WIKI Marketplace Quality Guidelines

​

Site must offer High Quality Products/Service for sale on the website being submitted. In some cases, a site that offers mainly Professional Services may be accepted.

At this time, we mainly list sites that cater to shoppers in the Europe, but will also accept high quality shopping sites that are located in another country, but offer international shipping options to the United States and other countries.

Shopping sites should include the following:

​

  • Secure Shopping Information – Sites should display information about how their shopping cart is secured and how customer financial and personal data is protected when being transmitted to them. Display of security verification badges or merchant verification images should be prominent.

  • Transparent Contact Information –  The company or owner information of the site should be clearly displayed on an About, Contact, Company Information or similar page. Contact information should optimally include the physical location of the main location of the company and a contact phone number. A contact form is acceptable, but should not be the only way to get in touch with your company.

  • Customer Service Options – The site should include clear customer service options, including how to get in touch if there is a problem with the order.

  • Shipping Information – The site should clearly display information about the shipping options offered.

  • Return Policy – All sites offering tangible products should include a clearly marked return policy detailing the return policy of the site.

  • Privacy Policy – All sites should have a clearly displayed privacy policy noting how the customer’s information is used.

​

Site Reputation

​

Our first priority is providing our visitors with a range of high quality stores to shop at online. Therefore site safety, security and reliability are a priority. Our review process is quite thorough, and in many cases, we will seek out reviews, ratings and feedback of your company, store and/or products online, including on sites such as ResellerRatings, ePinions, Amazon, eBay and the BBB.  Sites with overall poor ratings or reviews will not be listed.

​
