How to Shop from Pinduoduo Overseas

Pinduoduo does not provide official international shipping, so overseas users need alternative methods to purchase products. Here are the most common and reliable ways to shop from Pinduoduo outside China:

1. Use a China-based Forwarding Service: Order products to a domestic Chinese address provided by a forwarding company, and they will ship the package to your country. This is the most common option for international shoppers.
2. Use a Third-Party Shopping Agent: A shopping agent places the order on your behalf, handles domestic payment, and ships the items internationally. This is ideal if you do not have a Chinese payment method.
3. Use Temu for Global Shopping: Temu is Pinduoduo’s separate global e-commerce platform designed for international customers. Note that Temu ≠ Pinduoduo — the two platforms do not share accounts, product listings, or systems.
