How to Order From PandaBuy in Spain
It is true that its interface is not very attractive and can be confusing at first, although ordering through Pandabuy is much simpler than it seems at first glance. Before searching through Pandabuy products, it is advisable to change the currency, since the price of all items is shown in yuan and if you are not familiar with the Chinese currency, you will not know how much the item you are going to order costs.
The instructions to follow after the change are not very different from those seen in other apps for buying online, but we will explain each step in detail.Â
Change Currency to Euro
When shopping at Pandabuy, you have to keep in mind that the price is displayed in yuan, the currency used in China. This makes it difficult to know how much each product in your cart costs and how much it costs in total. To save yourself from having to use the calculator to change the currency, the easiest way to do this is to change the currency at Pandabuy since there is an option for this in the settings. These are the steps required:
- Open the Pandabuy app on your mobile.
- Select the Account icon on the bottom bar.
- Click on settings via the gear at the top right.
- Tap on the Currency option and choose EUR to change the Pandabuy price to Euros.

Pandabuy is not like Amazon or AliExpress, where products and categories are displayed in an easy and attractive way for the user. It is not overly complicated either, since you only have to use the search bar at the top to search for products on Pandabuy. Boots, sweatshirts, t-shirts, socks, mobile phone cases… all kinds of items at an affordable price.

How to Pay on PandaBuy

To access the cart, tap on your profile icon at the bottom and select Cart at the top. Here you will see each and every Pandabuy product you want to buy along with the total price, but not the shipping costs.
To check them, click on Estimated International Shipping and click on Check again. The weight of the package will be shown to the user and they can even select the transport company, among which we recommend tariffs to avoid possible problems with customs.
Once you have checked the above, tap the Submit button to process the order: enter the shipping address for the package and payment method.
