To qualify for the optimized shipment and not pay placement fees you still have to send 5 identical boxes of the same sku right?
Update to FBA standard-size partial shipment split options
Hello,
Effective February 20, 2025, we’ll update the Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA) inbound placement options for standard-sized products and the partial shipment splits option will no longer be offered.
Our redesigned fulfillment network now enables faster delivery for standard-size products through minimal and Amazon-optimized shipment splits.
With this change, you’ll be able to choose from the following two options:
- Amazon-optimized shipment splits: There is no inbound placement service fee if you’re able to ship your shipments to multiple US
- fulfillment centers.
- Minimal shipment splits: For a fee, you can send your inventory to one location within a geographic region of your choosing.
Partial shipment splits will continue to be available for large bulky products.
