How Shop and Carry works on AirJIT

Understanding the process and benefits of Shop and Carry on AirJIT

Introduction to Shop and Carry​

Shop and Carry is a service on AirJIT where travelers purchase items on behalf of shippers and deliver them to recipients. Travelers pay for the items upfront and are reimbursed upon successful delivery, along with an additional return on their investment.

Process of Shop and Carry​

  1. Listing and Agreement: The shipper lists the items to be purchased, including the purchase price. Travelers agree to purchase and deliver these items.
  2. Purchase: The traveler buys the listed items, paying the purchase price upfront.
  3. Collection and Documentation: The traveler collects the items, inspects them for accuracy, and documents their condition by uploading photos to AirJIT.
  4. Delivery: The traveler delivers the items to the recipient, ensuring they receive and confirm the delivery.
  5. Reimbursement and Returns: Upon successful delivery, the traveler is reimbursed for the purchase price and receives an additional return on their investment.

Returns on Investment​

Travelers receive a return on their investment for participating in the Shop and Carry service. This return is typically around 20%, depending on the route complexity and other factors.

Example: If a traveler purchases an item for $100, they will be reimbursed $100 plus an additional $20 (20% return) upon successful delivery.

Managing Multiple Travelers in Shop and Carry​

Sometimes, a single shop and carry parcel is delivered through multiple connecting travelers. In such cases, each traveler pays the purchase price to the previous traveler and receives a portion of the return on investment based on their route complexities.

Steps for Managing Multiple Travelers:​

  1. Receiving and Paying: Each receiving traveler pays the purchase price to the previous traveler.
  2. Documenting and Reporting: Each traveler documents the condition of the items and reports the handover.
  3. Final Delivery: The final traveler delivers the items to the recipient and submits the final documentation.

By understanding the process and benefits of Shop and Carry, travelers can take advantage of this service to maximize their earnings on AirJIT.
