Lazada collaborates with gov’t agencies to safeguard online shopping experience

Navigating this digital landscape poses challenges that demand innovative solutions to ensure the safety and satisfaction of stakeholders.

That is why leading e-commerce platform Lazada has taken proactive measures in collaborating with government agencies to establish a secure and compliant platform for its users.

Preserving marketplace integrity

Lazada is committed to legal compliance and user safety, embracing the Internet Transactions Act of 2023 by utilizing advanced algorithms and dedicated teams that regularly scan the platform to prevent online infringement and illicit trades.

A comprehensive whitelisting procedure, combined with user age verification and logistics checks, underscores Lazada's commitment to age-appropriate sales.

"We remain committed to collaborate with the government, especially the DTI and industry peers to help ensure the successful implementation of this landmark Act, and pave the way for a future defined by secure, innovative, and thriving e-Commerce for Filipinos," Lazada Philippines CEO Carlos Barrera said.

Supporting community growth

Lazada's commitment to community development is showcased through strategic initiatives that support sustainable livelihoods, employment, and economic growth at the grassroots level.

The Seller CommuniTours program exemplifies Lazada's dedication to building a thriving community among its sellers.

Recently, the platform unveiled "PiliPino by Lazada," a holistic program aiming to celebrate and drive inclusive growth of Philippine e-Commerce.

These programs champion micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) and aspiring entrepreneurs by providing relevant learning programs and establishing a robust support network to uplift the entrepreneurial spirit of Filipinos.

Beyond its platform, Lazada supports individuals making a difference in society. The "Inspiring Young Filipino" recognition aims to fuel inspiration and empower the next generation of leaders, fostering a commitment to nation-building among the youth.

Lazada actively empowers promising talents, as seen in its partnership with the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) to support and promote the Young Creatives Program, nurturing the local creative industry.

Lazada's diverse initiatives underscore its commitment to creating a secure and prosperous environment for all stakeholders.

As an online shopper, being aware of these efforts becomes paramount, for it is through these collaborative endeavors that Lazada continues to build a trustworthy, secure, and inclusive e-commerce ecosystem that safeguards the interests and satisfaction of each and every stakeholder.
