Announccement reposted from Amazon Europe:
To reduce your costs when you send inventory to Amazon fulfillment centers, during 2023 we provided you with a discount rate through our Amazon Partnered Carrier program. We are happy to announce that we will continue supporting the shipments that you send to our fulfillment centers in 2024.
The discount rate will depend on your ‘Ship from’ location and the ‘Marketplace destination’ of the fulfillment center where you are planning on sending your inventory.
When you send your inventory from Sweden to a fulfillment center in Sweden, you will benefit from a 60% discount, whereas your shipments to Germany will be discounted by 10%.
From January 1, 2024, these new rates will be applied when you use the ‘Send to Amazon’ shipment creation workflow.
You can continue to use the Amazon Partnered Carrier program with UPS to enjoy the following benefits:
- Access to competitive Partnered Carrier rates, negotiated by Amazon
- Fast transit times from carriers with experience shipping to fulfillment centers
- Coverage of shipments under the FBA lost and damaged inventory reimbursement policy
In addition, you can access the following features from your Seller Central account:
- Print labels and track deliveries for small parcel shipments
- Simplified booking experience by paying for shipments
