Wireless Tmall, mobile phone Taobao, Alipay wallet, Amoy point and other Alibaba's APP will participate in it.

It is not just Alibaba that tap the potential of mobile terminal users.

Electronic commerce platform Jingdong said recently that on the eve of "double 11", Jingdong's pat Network will launch a pat store, and Jingdong micro shop will be launched after upgrading.

The first department store, the new world, Paris spring and other traditional department stores all said that the shopping malls in November have not been released for the time being, and there should be no big moves, and more energy will be placed on the cross year promotion at the end of December.

However, there are also businesses to take the initiative.

Hu Jinqiao, deputy general manager of Shanghai Bailian Group Limited by Share Ltd, said that before November 11th, all of its stores will carry out online and offline activities.

Customers can book ahead to some of the most popular items on the Internet, and then pick up the goods at the appropriate counters after the payment is completed.

From 9 to 24, the more than 300 brands will be involved in the whole line, and 80 percent off promotions will be launched for many kinds of products.

"As far as I know, all the department stores in Shanghai have studied double 11".

However, this does not mean that traditional department stores must join. "

Chen Xiaoming, director of the Electronic Commerce Department of Shanghai Business Committee, said that in October, the Shanghai business system had run the Shanghai Shopping Festival, and December was another year's promotion of traditional department stores.

And for physical department stores, the cost of doing the activity is much larger than that of the electricity supplier. The most obvious thing is that the increase in the flow of people is also a great safety hazard.

"Traditional department stores do not sell well in one day, but their advantages are not obvious."

Chen Xiaoming said.
