LONDON, March 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Today the UK ecommerce market is set for a shake-up with the launch of Joybuy, the new online retail destination from JD.com, providing customers with great value, trusted brands and fast, same-day delivery on orders placed before 11am – for orders over £29, there's no extra cost.
The launch comes as shoppers increasingly prioritise reliability, convenience and speed when shopping online. Joybuy data shows strong demand for fast delivery, with the vast majority of eligible customers choosing same-day delivery where it is available.
A spokesperson for Joybuy in the UK said:
"Joybuy is here! It's time for a better, more joyful way to shop online. The UK and Europe have some of the savviest shoppers in the world, and we're bringing our decades of retail and logistics experience to the UK and Europe to change the way people shop online for the better. By owning the process from the warehouse to the front door, we're making same-day delivery the new standard. Our investment in the UK and across Europe is focused on ensuring that when a customer clicks 'buy', they know the product will be delivered to their door with the quality, speed and reliability they deserve.
"British shoppers have long had to settle for a trade-off between price and speed, often paying a premium to get their orders more quickly. We're here to change that. With Joybuy, same-day delivery isn't a luxury; it's our standard for millions of households. By combining competitive prices on trusted brand names with our 'Double 11' express delivery, we're making online shopping more of a joy. We've built the infrastructure, we've partnered with incredible brands, and now we're ready to show the UK a better way to shop. We will make your shopping more joyful."
High-quality brands you know and trust
As a brand-led platform, Joybuy features dedicated brand stores including L'Oréal Paris, Braun, Emma, De'Longhi, BRITA, The Pink Stuff, DJI and Bodum. These brand stores allow customers to explore full product ranges, discover new launches and learn more about their favourite brands in one place, creating a more immersive shopping experience.
In addition, Joybuy benefits from global relationships with leading brands, partners and suppliers to bring exclusive, great value promotions and products to consumers. From consumer tech and home appliances to beauty, groceries, homeware, and baby essentials all in one place. And with a simple ambition: to bring the joy back to online shopping.
Joybuy launches by offering a full range of high-quality branded products in the UK, including Apple, DJI, HP, Hisense, LEGO, Lenovo, LG, Nutribullet, Philips, PlayStation, Samsung, Sony, TCL, Xiaomi, and many more.
Product pages on Joybuy are designed to be interactive, with features such as 3D product views on selected products like the DJI Vlogging Camera, or haptic feedback on your phone to mimic the buzz of a Braun Electric Shaver while browsing its product page.
Speedy and reliable – Joybuy, delivered by JoyExpress
Unlike other online retailers, Joybuy does not charge extra "speed fees" to receive orders sooner. Its unique "Double 11" delivery service means if shoppers order by 11am, orders will arrive before 11pm the same day. Order before 11pm and it arrives the next day. Same-day delivery is now available to over 17 million people – 4.5 million households – across Greater London, Birmingham, Leicester, Nottingham, Oxford, Cambridge and will be rolled out to more towns and cities in the coming months. The Double 11 service is free on orders of £29 or more, and customers are able to check Double 11 availability by entering their postcode. For full details on delivery times and costs, shoppers can view the Joybuy Shipping Policy. Shoppers outside the Double 11 delivery zones can still access next-day or standard delivery nationwide*.
Joybuy manages its Double 11 delivery service from click to doorstep. With JoyExpress, its dedicated last-mile express delivery service, it operates more than 60 warehouses and depots across Europe, supported by thousands of logistics and operations employees. Customers can also choose to collect their parcels through the Joybuy Pick-up Service at over 11,000 pick-up points across the UK, which includes more than 400 locker locations.
Joybuy also takes the hassle out of buying large appliances by offering a complete 'one-stop' service. Delivery, installation, disconnection and even the recycling of your old unit are handled in a single visit, so there's no need to book multiple appointments.
In the UK, Joybuy's logistics backbone includes major self-operated warehouses in Milton Keynes and Luton, with a combined floor area exceeding 90,000 square metres. JD.com is also making significant long-term investments in automation in its European logistics network.
