High-volume listing fees

Refund administration fee

If you refund a customer for an order for which you have already received payment, Amazon will refund you the amount of the referral fee you paid for the item(s), minus the applicable refund administration fee, which is the lesser of $5.00 or 20% of the referral fee.

Optional programs

Advertising

Attract customers from the time before they even realize they need your product to the time they’re purchasing it. Amazon Advertising use a cost-per-click, auction-based pricing model, meaning you set the maximum amount that you’re willing to pay when a shopper clicks your ad.

Inventory placement service

By default, when you send inventory to an Amazon fulfillment center, you may have to send your inventory in multiple shipments, each directed to a different receive center or fulfillment center, based on the products you're shipping and where you are shipping from. By having your inventory spread across multiple fulfillment centers across the country, customers who buy your product may receive it faster than they would if your inventory was located farther away.

Our inventory placement service allows you to send all of your eligible inventory to a single receive center or fulfillment center. When the shipment arrives, we then split up your inventory and send it to different fulfillment centers for you. A per-unit service fee applies.
