Holiday order deadlines, also known as order-by dates, are suggested dates by which you should place orders for the best possibility to receive them in time for the holidays. Be transparent about order deadlines with your customers, and you’ll improve your overall customer loyalty because they’ll know what to expect. After the set order deadline, it’s unlikely that your customer will receive the order in time for the holiday, so keep your customers informed before it’s too late. Also, make sure that your products match our content guidelines.
