An RFQ (Request for Quotation) is a formal invitation by a buyer seeking detailed pricing and terms for specified products. Responding promptly and accurately can help you win new business and forge lasting partnerships. It signals strong buyer intent—so it's key to respond with clarity and precision.
Once logged into your Seller Account (seller.globallinker.com), RFQs raised by buyers on the main/buyer-facing site (globallinker.com) appear on your dashboard. You can access, review, and take action on them from there. You also receive notifications via email, WhatsApp and in-App for RFQs relevant to your business category.

  • Draft a clear cost breakdown including unit price, total cost, any applicable taxes, shipping, and payment terms.
  • Address all details accurately—your quote might be treated as a binding document.
  • Submit the quote promptly via the seller panel.
  • You must submit your quotation with price, lead time, and terms. Ensure your quote is professional and complete.
Yes! If the buyer’s needs evolve or you need to adjust pricing or terms, use the 'Modify Quote' feature to resubmit your revised proposal. You can negotiate with the buyer by directly chatting with them.

  • Quote reference number
  • Link the product from your catalogue on GlobalLinker.
  • Detailed pricing, quantity, delivery terms, and payment terms.
  • Expiry timelines, if any
  • Review & ‘Submit’ your quote.

This formal quote helps you present a clearer, more credible offering.
