Handshake for Suppliers , 29件のレビュー
We recently applied to become vendors on Handshake, an experience that has regrettably been more frustrating than exciting. Handshake outlines a set of prerequisites that sellers must meet to be accepted. We diligently fulfilled each of these conditions, with the belief that we had followed their process meticulously.
Our excitement turned into disappointment two weeks later when our application was rejected on the grounds of not meeting the same requirements that we had painstakingly ensured to fulfill. The process lacked clarity and transparency, leaving us unsure of where we fell short.
We were further perplexed by their fine jewelry offerings, or rather the lack thereof. Our niche in fine jewelry does not seem overrepresented on their platform, so this couldn't have been a contributing factor to our application's rejection.
This opaque and inconsistent admissions process is not an isolated incident, as echoed by numerous other reviews we've come across. Such an experience presents a poor reflection on Handshake, as it raises questions about the transparency and reliability of their application process. This unfortunate encounter serves as a significant deterrent and has negatively impacted our view of Handshake.

Same as the others: auto rejected. Again. Don't even bother. Seems like an elitist, nit-picky group not unlike the self-aggrandizing bouncer at an exclusive club playing god on who gets past the velvet rope.

I read all reviews and tried to apply. Yes, they were right. Just a couple of minutes later I got my rejection message. I really wonder what is your "criteria for selling" exactly. I think there is no Handshake platform :))))

Auto rejected with zero reasons, which seems to be the norm. I was looking forward to this app! Having a reason for rejection would be a nice feature.

All comments said true. It seem scam to collect your information. Worthless app I ever see. Waste your time to apply.

I have applied with handshake and got rejected within minutes. No explanation just said I was not a match. Would really like to know the reason and what I can do to meet those requirements .

Well, add me to the list. I applied last year with a swift denial. Before applying I checked the product category and felt it was not saturated. Just one other seller in my state. After much back and forth with the team, it was revealed my product images were higher than the max 2048x2048 pixels. Fast-forward to this year and I inquired about re-applying. I reached out to support before hand regarding another issue and they said, hint hint you might want to add alt-text for all your images before applying. So I spent 2 days triple checking image sizes and adding alt-text. Applied this morning and within 2 minutes got a quick denial. Already sent an email so we'll see what they say. Highly disappointing...will definitely consider other apps going forward.

I have met all the requirements and have been a customer for years and got denied both times I applied and no explanation as to why. They sell lots of apparel on handshake similar so whatever. For all those looking for wholesale, apply to faires wholesale they do a great job and we do a lot of business through them. I love shopify, but very disappointed with their customer service and their wholesale platform.

A Shopify representative recommended I apply for Handshake in a chat where I was asking for help with the limits of draft orders. What a surprise, we were denied. I even went through the list of requirements and we meet all of them by quite a bit. Should have known better after reading all these reviews.
Good thing there are other wholesale apps. So disappointing.

I give this app one star because I am not able to see the app and I keep getting denied. I think it would be really helpful to let stores know why they get denied. Getting rejected instantly is not a real "review" process. Tell stores what criteria they didn't meet.
