In addition, various other names of this jastip business have emerged such as Entrusted service agent, Shopping entrusted goods service, Deposit Service, and Entrusted services. Thus, it is necessary to have a deeper review of this jastip business concept phenomenon. This study uses a qualitative approach method of literature review which summarizes the important points in previous research so that the actual concept or description of Jastip's business is found. The results of the study show that the jastip business is different from personal shoppers. The jastip business is only a representative service to buy goods ordered by consumers and get a fee outside of the product price, in contrast to personal shoppers whose profession must be professional in exploring product information.
