WHAT IS VOVO? A NEW-EXPERIENCE ONLINE SHOPPING PLATFORM FOR VIETNAMESE USERS

Over the past many years, e-commerce has strongly changed the way Vietnamese people shop. With just a mobile phone, users can search for products, compare prices, place orders, and wait for delivery right to their doorstep. Users have become increasingly familiar with opening an app, finding a product, placing an order, and waiting for delivery. Everything has become faster and more convenient, but at the same time, it has gradually become similar.

It is within this context that a question begins to emerge: “Can online shopping become more interesting, more valuable, and offer more choices for users?”
VOVO was created to solve that problem. It is not just an ordinary shopping app, but a shopping platform based on your interests.

1. What is VOVO?
About VOVO: Guaranteeing value, building trust through transparency
VOVO is an interest-based shopping app tailored to the Vietnamese market. Its direct shopping discovery experience helps you easily find products you love. If you are not satisfied or no longer need to use a product, you can choose the 24-hour consignment channel within the app. Content you love can also be shared with friends, and you can complete tasks to receive rewards or event benefits.
You can learn more about the platform on the official website: https://vovoapp.vn/

1.1. Redefining e-commerce
A representative of VOVO’s leadership team stated: “We are redefining e-commerce: the future of e-commerce does not belong to platforms, but to users.”
VOVO is not a traditional sales platform, but a platform that creates opportunities, where users can participate and receive values they deserve. With the slogan “VOVO – every shopping experience is a new journey of discovery,” you can easily understand what VOVO is: not merely a product or an app interface, but an operating model centered on user experience, interests, and participation.

  1. What is VOVO? Why did VOVO start in Vietnam?
    To fully answer the question of what VOVO is, it is important to understand why the platform chose Vietnam as its starting point. At the same time, VOVO recognized four very clear needs among users in Vietnam.
    Problem 1: Users mainly only purchase goods and find it difficult to truly participate on other e-commerce platforms.
    Problem 2: If users buy a product they do not like or that is unsuitable, they often have to bear the loss themselves.
    Problem 3: In e-commerce, income-generating opportunities are usually concentrated among a small number of people who have the ability or opportunity.
    Problem 4: Users of e-commerce platforms still lack a strong sense of security and peace of mind.
    Seeing that there was still a clear gap in this area, VOVO decided to choose Vietnam as a meaningful destination.

  2. The platform’s 8 guarantee mechanisms
    To build trust and provide users with a secure shopping experience, VOVO implements eight essential guarantee mechanisms:
    1/ Guarantee of transparent platform operations
    2/ Guarantee of product authenticity
    3/ Guarantee of delivery and order fulfillment
    4/ Guarantee of participation value
    5/ Guarantee of consignment transactions
    6/ Guarantee of income conversion and withdrawal for real-life use
    7/ Guarantee of a fair mechanism
    8/ Mechanism for protecting user rights and interests
    These mechanisms not only ensure transparency and product quality, but also protect user rights, ensure safe transactions, and help users receive real value from every action on the platform. With the commitment “Guaranteeing value, building trust through transparency,” VOVO aims to build an e-commerce ecosystem where every experience is safe, trustworthy, and holds long-term value.

  3. What makes VOVO a unique new online shopping app?
    For the most part today, the role of users still stops at purchasing goods. Once the transaction is completed, the relationship ends. The connection between users and the platform almost does not continue further. VOVO expands the role of users by bringing them into an experiential journey. There, users do not only buy products, but also have the right to choose how they participate, how they consume, and how they create value from their own behavior.
    Four key differences of the VOVO app:
    User role: Users are not only customers who purchase goods, but also members who participate in creating value for the community.
    Consumption approach: Users shop based on interests, are encouraged to interact, and benefit from each action, instead of only searching for low prices.
    Relationship with the platform: The relationship is long-term and reciprocal. The platform maintains connections after transactions instead of ending once an order is completed.
    Platform growth model: Growth is based on participation and community value, not only on transaction volume or short-term promotions.

  4. What is VOVO’s core value?
    VOVO is an e-commerce model that takes interests as its starting point and user participation as its center. Users can shop directly as they would on ordinary e-commerce platforms, while also choosing to participate in interactive consumption methods according to their personal interests and needs.
    5.1. User options on VOVO
    Shop directly like on a normal e-commerce platform
    Participate in receiving products through the Blind Box model
    If users like the product, they can receive it directly
    If they do not need to use the product, they can choose consignment
    At VOVO, shopping does not stop at the question of “to buy or not to buy.” It is the freedom to choose how to participate and move toward the outcome most suitable for each user’s needs.

  5. Why do users choose VOVO?
    Users are free to make their own choices.
    Transparent mechanisms provide greater peace of mind.
    It is about better suitability, not simply buying more.

  6. Trillion-scale subsidy strategy
    Focus: Investing in users, not purchasing traffic.
    Traditional subsidies: Traditional subsidies mainly aim to stimulate short-term ordering behavior, such as discounts, vouchers, cashback, and points accumulation.
    VOVO’s subsidies: VOVO views subsidies as a form of investment to support users in participating in the platform’s mechanism. VOVO is a long-term investment mechanism centered on user participation, supporting real experiences and long-term engagement to build sustainable user growth and lasting platform value.

  7. What will users receive?
    More opportunities to participate and connect.
    Clear participation outcomes that can be seen in practice.
    Continuous connection with the platform.
    An environment for growth and development.

  8. What are VOVO’s mission and vision?
    VOVO’s mission is to bring more ordinary people the opportunity to participate. Two accompanying ideas are that effort should receive clear rewards, and value should return to the process of genuine creation. In terms of vision, VOVO aims toward a broader market and aspires to become a platform truly centered on user value.

  9. VOVO team declaration.
    We believe that: “Every individual in society deserves to be treated equally.”
    As long as clear rules and a genuine path are provided, actions will not be wasted and time will not be taken lightly.
    VOVO does not promise ease. But it respects effort, does not create illusions, and values real feedback during the participation process.

  10. VOVO team principles
    Users are the top priority:
    Authentic and trustworthy
    Open opportunities
    Co-creation of value

“What is VOVO?” — this is the question VOVO wants to answer through action.

VOVO’s journey began with that idea and has been realized step by step: building its vision, improving its product, and launching Public Beta to listen to users.

With a clear roadmap from 2025 to 2029, we are moving toward the goal of expanding across Southeast Asia and preparing for bigger steps in the market. Each milestone is not only an important achievement for VOVO, but also VOVO’s commitment to the community: sustainable development, transparency, and always placing users at the center.
