Why This Happens

Shopee monitors seller chat response rates as a key performance metric. Your response rate has fallen below the required threshold (typically responding to buyer messages within 12 hours). Low chat response rates affect your seller rating, reduce search visibility, and can prevent you from qualifying for Shopee Preferred Seller status.
