Chinese online retailer LinkieBuy has joined the “Thousand Domains Program” of Tencent Smart Retail. It has also officially integrated into Tencent’s smart ecosystem of retail service providers. LinkieBuy will make use of Tencent’s smart retail digital strategy, digital applications and digital infrastructure.

It will also adopt Tencent’s four-force growth model capabilities, which are based on organisational force, operational force, commodity force and product force.

“LinkieBuy will remain consumer-centreed and help brands and retailers establish global digital operations with the integration of online and offline scenarios, the integration of public and private domains, and the integration of products and services,” said Austin Qi Guoliang, Vice President of Xingyun Group and President of LinkieBuy. As we gradually move from private domain operations to omni-channel operation, the value of an enterprise’s digital capabilities is gaining a growing importance. LinkieBuy has completed its business layout ahead of schedule.

The “Thousand Domains Program” is the “Growth and Cooperation Program for Partners in the Ecosystem of Retail Service Providers” launched by Tencent Smart Retail. The programme focuses on the retail industry and the private domain ecosystem, targets ISV and private domain agency service provider partners to help retailers achieve business growth.

LinkieBuy is already a partner of Tencent for WeChat Mini Program and WeChat Pay. It has also collaborated over years in the field of WeChat’s private domain business, serving many overseas retail customers through Corporate WeChat.

LinkieBuy provides digital solutions that include online SaaS shopping mall construction, payment and system API connection, e-commerce agency operation, and brand communication.

Over the past few years, LinkieBuy has provided a complete set of digital tools and digital operation solutions for well-known retail companies such as Thailand’s BIGC, Japan’s Daimaru Matsuzakaya Department Store, and Seibu Department Store. LinkieBuy plans to collaborate with Tencent Smart Retail to further explore retail digitisation and global digital management and provide more customised digital operation solutions for brands and retailers from around the globe.
