AmazonAmazon SFPSFP Amazon: Unlocking Seller Fulfilled Prime

In the extremely competitive world of eCommerce, one key aspect can make or break your business: free and fast shipping. Amazon set the bar high for this offering in part thanks to their Prime program, which enables free same- and two-day delivery. Now, two-day shipping is the standard expectation for online consumers. For third-party sellers, participating in Amazon Prime typically means using Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA). However, Seller Fulfilled Prime (SFP) is an alternative option that allows merchants to ship Prime-eligible orders directly from their own warehouses. The program is a game-changer, particularly for eCommerce businesses and Amazon merchants seeking greater...

AmazonFBA Inventory ReimbursementEverything You Need to Know About FBA Inventory Reimbursement

Amazon FBA sellers move millions of products in the program. In 2023 alone, U.S. vendors sold 4.5 billion items, and while not all of those went through FBA, that kind of product volume means things will inevitably go wrong at some point. Items become lost or are damaged during shipment or in the warehouse, and when that happens, Amazon owes you reimbursement. Previously, sellers had to file a claim manually for inventory lost or damaged in Amazon’s care. In 2024 though, the FBA inventory reimbursement process has become significantly easier, and as of November, much of it will happen automatically. That...

As a participant in Amazon’s FBA program, you enjoy several attractive perks. Once you’re in, you can focus on growing your business while Amazon takes over the logistics, from storage and packing to shipping — and that includes Amazon FBA returns. Amazon’s FBA return process is easy and convenient in many ways. When customers want to return items, the platform handles the communication, processing, and even restocking. However, sellers can’t take a wholly hands-off approach to the process, and they must also be aware of a less obvious downside.
