OptifarmSMART: Should I choose a group or single offerings?

By Team Optifarm

In our mobile application Optifarm SMART, we have separated the offerings of fresh local products into group and single, so that your user experience will be even easier and faster.

You can choose between two offering types on the Optifarm SMART app:

  • Group offerings, where you can order products from different local providers. This is where a combined offer of local providers is gathered.
  • Single offerings, where you can order items of one (selected) local provider. This is where the offer from an individual local provider is gathered.

TO MAKE IT SIMPLE:

  • SINGLE OFFERING is like a local marketplace, where several local providers present themselves with their products, each at their own stall. At each stall you select items, you pay them and then continue your purchase at the next one.
  • GROUP OFFERING is like a trade show where items of several local providers are presented at one stall, you select the products and pay the bill for everything selected at that stall.

WHEN TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT OFFERING TYPE?

  • GROUP OFFERINGS can be chosen when you want to place an order for items from different local providers.
  • SINGLE OFFERINGS can be chosen when you want to place an order for items from only one local provider.

ORDERING NOTICE - GROUP OFFERING

When ordering you can select items in your Shopping cart from several local providers in ONE GROUP OFFER. If you would like to create another “Group Offer” you will need to complete the first one, or delete it from your cart before continuing selecting items for the second one.

ORDERING NOTICE - SINGLE OFFERING

When ordering you can select items from ONE local provider in your Shopping cart. If you would like to select other items also from other local providers, we recommend you to use our GROUP OFFER, as the “Single offer” is used only to buy products from a single local provider.

Why can’t I choose items from several local providers in SINGLE OFFER?

Because in this case, the local provider himself takes care of the delivery of your order. Local provider also determines the schedule as well as the price of delivery on his own. Which is simple if you buy products from ONE provider, but if you would choose products from other providers as well, things would get complicated. This would mean you would receive several packages, despite the fact that you ordered all in one. Also, they would arrive on different days - each delivery coming from a different local provider. You would also have to pay different shipping prices. A lot of mess, right?

In this case we advise you to use our GROUP OFFER, where you can place an order of different items of different local providers all in ONE GROUP OFFER in your cart. Price of shipping is the same for the entire order and our delivery service brings you the order all in one package.
