What is the Care Service Program?

The Care Service Program is an optional buyer-paid service available on eligible TikTok Shop MY orders. Under the MY Service Model, it offers after-delivery service support for selected product categories, including Gadget Care, Electronic Care, Merchandise Care, and Allergy Care Service.
In Malaysia, the Care Service Program is delivered with PS Partners (PSP) as the service partner. Sellers should use service-model wording such as care service, service program, and Service Request when explaining the offering.
By understanding the Care Service Program, Sellers can promote a safer and more confident shopping experience while setting the right expectations on what the service covers and where Buyers should go for support.

How does the Care Service Program work?

  • Eligible items will display a Care Service option during checkout.
  • Buyers can add the Care Service when completing their purchase.
  • After the item has been delivered and received successfully, the applicable added value services & service period becomes active.
  • If the covered scenario happens during the service period, Buyers should submit a Service Request through the official service flow shown in the product materials.
