The Wish shopping app has started a new program to promote cooperation with inpatient retail.As the Internet World reports, the new program is called "Wish Local" and aims to generate more walk -in customers, awareness and thus higher sales.Wish wants to enable customers to collect their orders in a stationary branch - on the same day.
In order to build and carry out this system, Wish has to win the favor of the inpatient dealers: they should store some of the best-selling Wish products in their shops and thus act as a pick-up point for online orders via the app.According to Wish, this brings more walk -in customers for the branches.In addition, retailers can list their inventory-and should thus be able to open up online trading as an additional sales channel.

Wish needs retailers as a partner
According to Wish, one of the cornerstones of the program is the so-called pickup program.In a video, Wish explains that the dealers who register as a wish pickup partner will send a smartphone with a pre-installed app.This allows retailers to see when an order arrives, when the customer wants to pick them up and how much sales were generated with it.
