How dropshipping works on Sello: from link to doorstep
The full Sello dropshipping loop in five steps: import a product, set your price, and let fulfillment partners handle sourcing, packing and shipping.

Most dropshipping guides stop at “find a supplier”. On Sello, the supplier part is handled for you. Here is exactly what happens between pasting a product link and the parcel landing at your buyer’s door.
Step 1: Import a product
Paste any AliExpress, Taobao or 1688 product link into the Dropship screen, or pick something from the built-in catalogue. Short links and share text from the mobile apps work too. Sello fetches the product with its photos, variants and shipping weight, and suggests a resale price.
Step 2: Set your price
You decide what the product sells for. Sello shows the whole picture before you publish: sourcing cost, platform fee, the shipping the buyer will pay, and your profit per unit. A minimum price floor guarantees a margin on every sale, so the numbers always work.
Step 3: A buyer checks out
Your product lives on your storefront at sello.bio/you, next to anything else you sell. Buyers pay in their own currency, and weight-based shipping is added at checkout. To your customer it looks like any other polished store, because it is one.
Step 4: Partners fulfill the order
This is where Sello does the heavy lifting. Fulfillment partners purchase the item from the supplier, quality-check it, and ship it with tracking to your buyer. You do not message any suppliers and you do not print any labels. Orders marked as dropshipped complete themselves in your dashboard.
Step 5: You get paid
Your earnings collect in your Sello wallet, with every sale, fee and refund in one ledger. When funds clear, you request a payout to your bank. That is the entire loop.
What this replaces
Running this yourself would mean supplier chats, spreadsheet margins, manual tracking emails and refund fights. The point of Sello dropshipping is that your job shrinks to two things that actually grow a business: choosing good products and getting people to your link.
