Questions about this pod
Scope before assumptions.
Can the pod work across multiple marketplaces?+
A multi-channel scope can be designed around the client’s actual platforms, permissions and operating rules.
Who approves refunds and exceptions?+
Approval thresholds and authorized decision owners should be defined before launch.
Can the pod support seasonal volume?+
Coverage changes can be discussed during planning, but no specific scaling commitment should be assumed until it is agreed commercially.
