Alibaba International Station releases 8 major measures to support new overseas merchants

On February 18 , Alibaba International Station released eight major support measures for new overseas merchants, ranging from increasing investment in new markets, simplifying business operations, ensuring business results, reducing service fees, etc., to help all merchants who want to go overseas to start B2B business first and continue the benefits of going overseas.

It is reported that the plan has a code name in Alibaba International Station: "Eight First to Go Overseas" plan. These eight measures to help new merchants go overseas first are all launched in a targeted manner by Alibaba International Station after multiple rounds of in-depth visits to many places and understanding the needs of merchants under the background of the rapid changes in the foreign trade situation in recent times.

The first priority is to help merchants expand into new markets such as Europe while ensuring stable and sustained growth in the US market. To this end, Alibaba International Station has targeted the six core markets in Europe, doubling its annual platform investment budget to help acquire more accurate overseas buyers.

In fact, the effect of the platform's increased investment in Europe has already been seen in the data since the beginning of the year. Europe is currently the fastest growing market on Alibaba International Station. Since resuming work after the Spring Festival, the European market has grown by more than 70 % year-on-year on a lunar year basis .

In the U.S. market, Alibaba International Station will provide tariff calculation tools free of charge, continue to offer intelligent and stable fulfillment solutions, help merchants access more overseas warehouse infrastructure, give full play to the advantages of a more stable and sustainable B2B trade model, and help the majority of merchants achieve steady progress .

At the same time, Alibaba International Station will also provide rigid guarantees for the operating results of new merchants.

Specifically, for different types of merchants, Alibaba International Station will provide a precise guarantee plan of more than 50 business opportunities in 3 months and more than 180 business opportunities in 6 months . For every business opportunity missing, the corresponding through train red envelope will be directly compensated. At the same time, Alibaba International Station will also guarantee the quality of business opportunities, and will compensate for those that do not meet the standards.

In order to help merchants further expand their sources of business opportunities, Alibaba International Station will also provide a free trial of the OKKI Leads AI subscription version for global customer acquisition, making background checks and proactive customer development easier.

Alibaba International Station said that the core of this action is to double the platform's investment, combined with the improvement brought by new AI technologies , to rigidly guarantee the business results of merchants, so that everyone can show their talents in the big wave of going overseas.

But for more new overseas merchants who want to transform into B2B, the traditional B2B trade has high thresholds and complicated processes. Alibaba International Station has transformed this model from beginning to end through new AI technologies and platform professional fulfillment services, making it extremely simple and easy to use.

For example, during the settlement phase, Alibaba International Station can use AI to help merchants open stores in a very simple way, especially with the latest URL product delivery functions, which can help merchants to deliver products and open stores with one click. In response to global marketing challenges, Alibaba International Station's AI intelligent marketing can help merchants intelligently select target markets and buyers, automatically select products, automatically expand keywords, and intelligently bid.

As a result, even if you don’t have any foreign trade experience, you can quickly generate and publish B2B product links that are suitable for various markets and languages ​​around the world , and accurately acquire customers in the global market.

In fact, during this Spring Festival, Alibaba International Station's AI helped Yiwu bosses receive a large order of 20 million US dollars in the new market in the Middle East. After that, Alibaba International Station further upgraded its full-process AI foreign trade products, and connected 4 major AI agents to the most advanced models such as DeepSeek R1 and Tongyi Qianwen Qwen 2.5-Max, further significantly improving the reasoning ability in product operation , intelligent marketing , automatic reception, risk control and compliance , and the ability is expected to catch up with the level of top foreign trade salesmen.

During the transaction stage, Alibaba International Station provides merchants with a full range of professional services including order guarantee, logistics fulfillment, cross-border financial flow, and after-sales service, making the entire B2B trade chain worry-free and labor-saving, and even novices can complete it quickly.

On this basis, Alibaba International Station will also set up a special fund pool to reduce related fees for merchants. For example, when new merchants use the platform's credit guarantee service, the first order will be free of service fees. When using the platform's foreign exchange collection service, the first order service fee will also enjoy a discount or even be completely exempted depending on the specific circumstances of the order.

In addition, Alibaba International Station will work with MyBank to provide 20 - day interest-free online merchant loans to help merchants with capital turnover.

It is understood that Alibaba International Station covers more than 190 markets around the world, has more than 50 million active global professional buyers, and is currently the top B2B platform for going overseas. In the current period of rapid changes in the foreign trade situation, Alibaba International Station has made continuous efforts to help merchants continue to reap the benefits of going overseas with a more stable, high-profit and sustainable B2B model.

The eight measures, known as the "Eight Firsts to Go Overseas," further reduce the cost for merchants to start B2B business , greatly simplify operations, and achieve more stable and certain business results, becoming a good opportunity for all new merchants to go overseas.
