help JD.com FAQ
Why is JD.com known for logistics rather than only online shopping?
JD.com built much of its own delivery and warehousing network instead of relying only on outside sellers and couriers. JD Logistics became a major part of the company and is central to its promise of fast delivery across China.
How is JD.com different from Alibaba's Taobao or Tmall?
JD.com has historically emphasized first-party retail, meaning it buys and sells many goods directly. Alibaba's Taobao and Tmall are more marketplace-oriented, connecting merchants and consumers at large scale.
What kinds of products do people usually buy on JD.com?
JD.com is especially associated with electronics, home appliances, phones, computers, groceries, and household goods. Its direct-sales model helped it build a reputation for authenticity in categories where counterfeit goods can be a concern.
Is JD.com a China-only marketplace?
JD.com is primarily focused on China, but the company has also explored international retail, cross-border commerce, and logistics services. Its main consumer brand is still strongest in the Chinese e-commerce market.
