Hello guys,
I’ve been selling Amazon wholesale (FBA) for about a year, but it seems like Amazon keeps increasing the fees they deduct from my products. Is anyone else experiencing this issue?
Does anyone have any experience with Seller Fulfilled Prime or any tips?
Yes, Amazon has been increasing fees, and it’s definitely cutting into margins for wholesale sellers. SFP can be a good alternative since you control fulfillment and avoid some FBA fees, but it comes with strict performance metrics. Reliable shipping and inventory management are key. You should have looked into different fulfillment strategies with the help of an experienced expert.
Do you have anyone ?
Most Amazon sellers have noticed the fee increases over time, and it is a common frustration. Regarding Seller Fulfilled Prime, here are some tips. Keep accurate and up-to-date inventory records since SFP requires fast shipping, so you must always know exactly what is in stock. Aim to ship orders within one business day and provide tracking information promptly to meet or exceed the promised delivery times. Be prepared to handle returns and customer inquiries quickly, as good customer service is crucial for maintaining your SFP status. Ensure you have the necessary resources, such as warehouse space and staff, to handle order volume efficiently. Thoroughly understand and comply with Amazon’s SFP policies because any violations can lead to losing your eligibility. Overall, SFP can increase your sales potential but requires careful management and adherence to Amazon’s standards.
Amazon fees keep increasing, especially for storage and fulfillment. You can control PPC costs by setting budget caps. SFP is good but needs fast shipping and strict compliance.
What fees is amazon increasing? You should monitor your FBA fees and if there are any random changes when the packaging stays the same, you should question it (fees in Q4 are higher in all categories). SFP is a good option but you have to meet all the requirements which there are not to loose this availability.
Yes, Amazon has been increasing fees over time, especially for FBA sellers. Many sellers are facing higher fulfillment costs, storage fees, and referral fees, which can eat into profit margins.
Seller Fulfilled Prime (SFP) – Is It Worth It?
SFP allows you to ship directly to customers while keeping the Prime badge, but there are strict requirements:
Fast & Reliable Shipping – You must meet 1-2 day shipping standards consistently.
Approved Carriers – You need to use Amazon-approved carriers to ensure on-time delivery.
Performance Metrics – Amazon requires a 99% on-time shipping rate and a low cancellation rate (<0.5%).
When I broke it down, it was advertisement fees. I know that on eBay, you can control them, but on Amazon, they don’t give you that option.
You can set up a daily or monthly budget cap for PPC spend. PPC should be monitored and managed properly on a weekly and monthly basis.
