6 countries direct + sometimes Turkmenistan · the rest via partners
A course for every country CargoWayChina ships to
Marketplaces, payment, the Guangzhou warehouse and the cost calculation are the same everywhere. Only the delivery to your country and the currency change — we cover that in the lessons.
CargoWayChina ships to these countries itself; to Turkmenistan — sometimes.
Each country has its own terms, timelines and rates — we confirm them in the quote. Other countries (except Ukraine) are served via partners, but you still get CargoWayChina partner prices: when you join the club, we connect you with the partner for your country.

Calculate an order the way we teach in the course
Find your product — weight and box size fill in automatically. We count the goods, your commission and delivery to Moscow at CargoWayChina rates — in yuan and dollars, or in your client's currency if they pay in roubles, tenge or sum. Compare with the marketplace price.

Learn to calculate orders — in the course
Delivery is approximate, based on the weight list. The exact price comes after weighing at the CargoWayChina warehouse. A sample calculation, not an invoice.
How to get a more exact weight and delivery price
- Approximate — from the list
Pick a product above: weight and box size are market averages. Enough for a first estimate.
- More exact — ask the seller
Message the seller: weight of one item with packaging and the box size. The seller knows exactly.
- Exact — at the CargoWayChina warehouse
Goods arrive at the warehouse, we pack everything into one box, weigh it and measure it. Weight divided by volume gives density, and density gives the price per kilogram in the rate table.
Example: a 0.5 m³ box weighs 100 kg → density 200 kg/m³ → rate per 1 kg from the table. Cargo lighter than 100 kg/m³ is charged by volume. From 100 kg of one identical product — a special price: ask in the club.

How a buyer earns — from start to finish

A 3,000 ¥ order × 10 % = 300 ¥ · a 50,000 ¥ order × 3 % = 1,500 ¥. For very small orders buyers charge up to 15 %.
Discount from the seller
Sellers on 1688 and Pinduoduo give 5–10 % off when the amount is good. Even on a small amount you can usually agree on 5 %.
Talk first
Chat first, then a call: you understand the client, agree on the price and build trust for repeat orders.
An example, not a promise of income. Light cargo (under 100 kg per 1 m³) is priced by volume — CargoWayChina guide rate 330 $ per 1 m³. Shipping rates and the final price are confirmed by CargoWayChina for each shipment.

The essentials
When does the course start?
Right after payment: access opens within 1 business day and you start with the first lesson. New lessons appear in your account automatically.
Is the course for me if I am not in Russia?
Yes. CargoWayChina ships directly to Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan and Tajikistan, and sometimes to Turkmenistan — each country has its own terms. Other countries are served via partners, still at CargoWayChina partner prices, and we connect club members with them. Marketplaces, Alipay, the Guangzhou warehouse and the calculation are the same. Lessons are in Russian.
Do I have to ship with CargoWayChina?
No. The course doesn't tie you to one company: you can work with CargoWayChina or another verified logistics company — we'll introduce you to several. Club discounts apply to CargoWayChina delivery.
Do I need experience to become a buyer?
No. The course starts with signing up to marketplaces and paying with Alipay, and the buyer workspace helps you avoid calculation mistakes.
How to pay from Russia and other countries?
Accept the terms on the site and get a contract number. Then pay in yuan to the account of Guangzhou Zongtong International Logistics Co., Ltd (CargoWayChina) — details on the page “Payment in yuan”.
Can I get a refund?
Access opens right after payment, so payment for opened access is not refunded. An erroneous or double payment is refunded in full — refund terms.
Can I watch lessons on several devices?
Access is personal: it is tied to your browser at first login, videos carry your account mark, and lessons can’t be downloaded. This keeps what you bought from being shared for free. Support can help you switch devices.
How is the course different from the club?
The course is 13 modules with a one-time payment. The club is a monthly subscription to the buyer workspace: requests, quotes, clients and a CargoWayChina shipping discount.
Will there be automatic charges?
No. The course is paid once; the club renews only when you choose to.
Do you guarantee income?
No. We provide knowledge, tools and better logistics; results depend on your clients, products and the market.
