Consumer payment → NOON collection → 14 days settlement → deduction of platform fees → to your collection account → withdrawal to domestic banks

03 Relationship between VAT and returns

A lot of newbies don't know that:VAT registration and payback are linked.

state of affairsImpact on returns
VAT is registered and filed on timeReturns are normal and unimpeded
VAT orders without registeringMay result in suspension of payback, need to re-register
VAT registered but not filed on timeMay incur penalties and affect store status
VAT registration information does not match store informationMay trigger audits and affect payback

Conclusion: VAT is not “it's okay to register when you have it,” but ratherMust be synchronized with move-in. Registering for VAT first and then billing is the surest path.


04 Common Payback Issues

Question 1: Incorrect payback amount?

Probable Cause:

  • Return Refund Chargeback
  • Platform Commission Adjustment
  • VAT withholding
  • Exchange rate fluctuations

Handling: Check the settlement details in NOON's back office and verify them line by line.

Question 2: Returns frozen?

Probable Cause:

  • Inconsistency between the name of the receiving account and the business license
  • VAT not registered or not filing on time
  • Stores have been penalized for violations

Handling: Contact NOON customer service at the first time to understand the cause and target the solution.

Question 3: How are exchange rate losses controlled?

  • Try to choose a collection tool with a low rate
  • Avoid multiple exchange of foreign currency (e.g. NOON → USD → RMB, double loss for two exchanges)
  • Large returns can focus on exchange rate windows
