Open Campaign Promotions

What is this function?

Jumia provides you with the possibility to participate in promotion campaigns, which is an amazing chance to showcase your products better and increase your sales.
At each event, you will find new promotion campaigns available in your store. You can benefit from them and provide your best offers, by adding those offers to the campaigns.

Sellers who participate in these promotion campaigns generate 3 times more sales than other sellers because they follow these 4 tips:
– They select their best offers 4-5 weeks in advance and add them on Vendor Center
– They check the Vendor Center regularly to see if their participation in the promotion campaign was approved or rejected by Jumia.
– They modify prices and stock according to the promotional campaign performance.
– They ship orders within 48 hours to the nearest drop-off station.
