Next steps:
Seek business models:
BBB and CASE are Trustmark provider as well as complaint handling entity. They handle cases based on trustmark fee from their member businesses. CASE can handles cases from consumer to businesses who is not a member of associations, based on consumers payment ( only a few amount). SOSA in Taiwan, TradeSafe in Japan are also the same model. Which means that Trustmark and ODR can cooperate with such business model.
Troubles on e-commerce, small value, can reach to some solution on complaint handling, if unsolved on it, consumer can choose to proceed to ODR with some payment. That can be practical solution for consumers, ODR and Trustmarks.
