Cumulative Number of Credit Card Issuance in Vietnam
(million)
The number of credit cards increases every year, and there are 3.3 million credit cards by the end of 2014. But this is only 1 in 30 people.
While credit card usage rate is very low, some businesses offer solutions to improving online payment process. Each business has a common strategy: cooperating with banks and credit card issuers and implementing online payment for EC users instead of those banks and credit card issuers. Hence, online payment service becomes better and easier, improves EC`s convenience and wipes out distrust towards the use credit cards.
About Order Cancellation

Differences between EC and Facebook Shopping
EC Facebook
Product Wide variety of products and categories. Specialized in one category of products. Stock is not very good either.
Order Method Online form on EC site. Ordering process depends on each site.
Manual method via FB Messenger or phone calling. In a case of FB Messenger, a reply may late or not even be given.
Customer Support Large-scale customer operation including phone calling, e-mail and online chatting.
The quality of customer support is variable due to its small-scale operation. Even the owner of the shop could give customer support.

Delivery: Staff Large EC sites do their branding through official uniforms and motorbikes with their own logos.

Delivery: Wrapping Their own branded wraps and boxes. Normal plastic bags and boxes.
Delivery time 1~3days (Many ECs offer express delivery if additional cost is paid.)
