PayPal today announces the extension του Προγράμματος Προστασίας του Πωλητή στην Ελλάδα. Το συγκεκριμένο πρόγραμμα καλύπτει τους πωλητές στην περίπτωση που τους έχει αποσταλεί μια μη εξουσιοδοτημένη πληρωμή – για παράδειγμα, από έναν λογαριασμό που έπεσε θύμα υποκλοπής – ή εάν και εφόσον ο αγοραστής ισχυρίζεται ότι δεν έχει παραλάβει το προϊόν – σε τέτοιες αντίστοιχες περιπτώσεις, το Πρόγραμμα Προστασίας του Πωλητή, καλύπτει τους Πωλητές για όλο το ποσό των αποδεκτών πωλήσεων που πληρούν τις προϋποθέσεις.
Until recently, this program was valid in Greece exclusively for material goods. It now applies to services (in sectors such as design, education, photography, etc.), in tickets (concerts, shows, sporting events, etc.), as well as in the travel / tourism industry (travel, flight or hotel reservations, etc.).
“I am really excited about this new addition to our services. PayPal's decision to expand its Seller Protection Program focuses on sellers, who are assured that they can take advantage of electronic trade on an expanded scale and with greater confidence – for more types of goods and services,” says Matt Komorowski, Managing Director of PayPal Northern and Central Europe.
"These changes are an important step in providing sellers with enhanced protection every time they use PayPal. Knowing you're covered if something goes wrong should be a basic requirement for buying and selling online. These improvements came from direct experience and the comments of users and allow us to trade online with even greater solvency than ever before. It gives us great pleasure to be able to introduce these enhanced protections in addition to other important services such as the Consumer Protection Program and Free Product Returns – as part of our work to increase reliability and trust in e-commerce ».
This program helps Greek merchants to sell more securely goods and services to customers not only within Greece but also in other 200 + markets where PayPal operates.
According to a recent survey by Accenture, cross-border e-commerce dominates as a driving force behind B2C trade, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 29.3% from 2014 to 20202. One of the most popular categories of cross-border sales, apart from clothing, is travel (tickets, stays, guided tours, etc.), which even represents 25% of total goods sold, including services.
PayPal hopes that with the expansion of the Seller's Protection Program, Greek merchants will be able to reach new goals and effectively expand their businesses.
