Shop SSG.com (쓱닷컴) — Korea's Premium Mall — Without a Korean Account

Access Shinsegae and Emart's premium Korean online mall — SSG.com — with Order in Korea as your trusted local buyer and PayPal as your payment.

SSG.com (쓱닷컴) is the integrated online shopping destination of the Shinsegae Group, bringing together Shinsegae Department Store, Emart, and a curated selection of premium domestic and international brands under one platform. It is where Korean consumers go for quality-assured groceries, luxury goods, premium home items, designer fashion, and exclusive in-house brand collaborations.

Despite its premium positioning, SSG.com is firmly built for Korean customers: it requires a Shinsegae-linked account, Korean phone verification, and domestic payment methods. Foreign visitors who want access to Emart fresh food, Shinsegae exclusives, or premium Korean brands face a checkout that simply does not accommodate them. Order in Korea purchases on your behalf and delivers to any address in South Korea — all paid through PayPal.

Why ordering from SSG.com is hard for foreigners

Shinsegae account requires Korean verification

SSG.com accounts are tied to the Shinsegae membership system, which requires Korean identity and phone verification. Foreign passport holders and visitors without a Korean registration number cannot register or complete checkout.

Premium goods with domestic-only checkout

SSG.com stocks many exclusive Shinsegae Department Store products and Emart premium private-label items unavailable anywhere else. Yet its checkout only supports Korean-issued cards and local payment platforms, cutting off overseas buyers entirely.

Fresh & grocery orders need a Korean delivery slot

Emart fresh food and same-day grocery orders on SSG.com require a Korean address eligible for their cold-chain delivery service. Setting this up correctly from a foreign phone with no Korean account is essentially impossible.

How Order in Korea solves it

We access Shinsegae's full catalog for you

Order in Korea holds a verified SSG.com account with full access to Shinsegae Department Store lines, Emart products, and exclusive platform-only offerings — none of which require you to register or verify identity.

Pay via PayPal with Buyer Protection

Settle up with Order in Korea through PayPal in your home currency — our fee is 10% of the item price (min $5; min order $20). We then cover the SSG.com checkout with our verified Korean payment method, so you secure the premium item without a Korean card.

Delivery to hotels, apartments & Airbnbs in Korea

We manage your delivery address in Korean, coordinate with SSG.com's logistics partner, and ensure your order — whether a luxury item from Shinsegae or a batch of Emart fresh groceries — arrives at the right place on time.
