Sellers, please note! Several new Amazon regulations are about to take effect

• Automatically set a minimum order processing capacity threshold based on the average daily order volume in the past 30 days.

• Reassess weekly and adjust minimums accordingly.

• Once order volume reaches this threshold, the delivery date will be automatically extended by one day.

• Sellers can set higher order processing capabilities on their own, but they cannot be lower than the minimum threshold set by Amazon.

• This policy only applies to Standard and Free Economy Shipping and does not affect Premium Shipping or self-fulfilled Prime orders.

In the face of the implementation of the new regulations, sellers are advised to consider the following strategies:

1. Optimize order rhythm and improve threshold calculation benchmark: Try to stabilize daily sales, make the "safety valve" calculated by the system higher, and avoid unnecessary order restrictions.

2. Pre-planning for big promotions: If there are big promotions such as flash sales, BD, and LD, plan them several weeks in advance and increase sales through reasonable means. This will enable the system to give a higher order processing capacity threshold to avoid stuck orders.

3. Manual optimization settings: Based on actual business capabilities and order expectations, manually increase the upper limit of order processing capacity and reduce the degree of intervention of the system's automatic threshold setting.

4. Use tools to analyze data: With the help of Amazon platform or third-party data analysis software, you can understand the changing trends of order volumes for different time periods and different products, arrange manpower, material resources and inventory in advance, and ensure that you have sufficient capacity to process orders.

At the same time, it is recommended that sellers regularly evaluate their actual operational capabilities and adjust processing capacity settings in a timely manner to ensure stable store operations.

02 FBA Compensation Policy: Effective March 10

Starting from March 10, 2025, Amazon FBA compensation standards have been updated! For goods lost or damaged before consumers place an order, compensation will be based on the manufacturing cost of the inventory. Transportation, tariffs and other costs are not included in the compensation!

"Manufacturing cost" refers to the cost of purchasing products from manufacturers, wholesalers, and distributors. If you are a manufacturer , it refers to the cost of producing the product. This can be viewed in [Manage your manufacturing costs].

Note: Sellers need to provide the costs themselves: they need to upload purchase invoices, logistics bills and other supporting documents.

Sellers should review Amazon’s policy guidelines and fill out cost information carefully before submission.

Once the review result of a product is issued, it cannot be updated again within 30 days after the result notification. If the update is rejected, the seller can try again after the applicable period. And reserve processing time to avoid multiple submissions.
