How does Amazon FBA work


Fulfillment by Amazon is a service available to you when you sell on Amazon. You can simply choose to have FBA fulfill any one of your listings, send your items to amazon fulfillment centers, and leave the rest to amazon.


1. Set up FBA.

If you already have a Selling on Amazon account, add FBA to your account. If you don't have a Selling on Amazon account, get started today.


2. Create your product listings.

Add your products to the Amazon catalog one at a time, in bulk, or by integrating your inventory-management software with Amazon's API.


3. Prepare your products.

Make sure your products are "e-commerce ready," so they can be safely and securely transported all the way into a customer's hands. Need supplies? Get Amazon preferred prep and shipping supplies delivered to your door.


4. Ship your products to Amazon.

Create your shipping plans, engage discounted partner carriers, and ship and track your shipments to Amazon fulfillment centers. Amazon's online seller tools can help you through the process.


5. Customers order your products, and Amazon picks, packs, and ships them.
