Come Feb what will change with regards to VAT re Brexit?
As long as I stay under the threshold can I still sell without VAT registration?
Answer: Brexit will have no effect on us once UK leave at least 2 year everything will remain the same. Going away from 40 plus year of partnerships is not a joke.
Why is Amazon paying 2 weeks after the estimated delivery date? It can get quite confusing with disbursements and how they relate to the orders placed. Is there anyway you can track this? I know Ebay breaks it down nicely with each sale, the fees you have paid and how much they have paid you but can’t see a similar thing with Amazon. The whole 2 weeks after the delivery date makes it hard.
Answer: Download a spreadsheet. Payments/Date Range Reports/Transactions Custom Dates.
Read across each line and you will see the transaction and it’s cost with a net payout on the right hand column. Follow these down and you will see the two weekly clear out when the disbursement happens.
Answer: Do NOT let the funds build up for two weeks. Should your account be put on hold/you suspended/banned etc then you will struggle to get that money for ages/sometimes at all. See people often with Amazon oweing them 1000s but no way to access it. I request funds every 48 hours.
Does anyone use a thermal label machine to print the FBA labels? When I click print on my shipment it doesn’t ask what size label I want
Answer: you can use 6×4 labels. You can usually print out the FBA label by removing the auto center auto rotate option. Then depending on how many pages you can ‘snapshot’ each UPS label and print or you can crop the pdf down to just the ups label and apply to all pages and print.
Question: How do I merge 2 amazon seller accounts? I have one selling a few products and my partner also has one selling a few products. We plan to become a ltd company soon and would like to merge the accounts without losing any sales ranks or reviews.
Answer: You need permission from the verification team. You will need the limited company in place. They will normally convert one to a limited company then add the other one, once that is done. But the rules are dependent on the accounts and Amazon, so there is no set rule in place on how they do it, so you need them to explain it to you.seller-verification-enquiry@amazon.co.uk.
Answer: Look into the Amazon Web Marketplace Web Service (MWS) With your MWS API key you can then connect your amazon accounts with a third party software to manage both of your both accounts from 1 login. Shipwire is one vendor but there are many more out there which offer the full end to end service. Check your seller central pages, there should be a MWS page somewhere Ive seen it previously.
Answer: Keep them separate, you can sell on both and keep under vat untill your doing well the vat register. And you have on to fall back on if one gets suspended
Have you been told instructions that you have to re apply for Amazon brand registry. Did you have a brand registered years ago and Amazon have had all your trademarks certifications and numbers for years?
Your existing brand pages are visible but can’t access them apart from USA?
Seems very odd? Has this happened?
Answer: I’m assuming you signed up for Brand Registry Pre Brand Registry 2.0 – so yes, you had to “sign up” again to Brand Registry 2.0 even if you were registered in the original Brand Registry…
And you need to sign up for a BR 2.0 account in each Amazon marketplace you sell in, and then provide authorisation from the main BR 2.0 account (where you first got brand registry) to all of the “satellite” BR accounts.
It’s legwork to setup – but useful in the long run that stuff is separated out by marketplace
Amazon requires you to provide a UPC / EAN only when listing new products, which do not exist on the Amazon website yet. In this case, you need to enter a valid UPC or EAN for each product and variation in theProduct ID field you’ll find on the edit product page. Then you can apply a listing profile with a category specific feed template to fill in all the information required for your category of products.
For variable products, you need to enter a Product ID both for the “parent” product – the same way as you do with non-variable products – and for each variation as well. To add product IDs for a huge number of products in bulk, you should consider importing them from a CSV file.
If you want to list a product which does already exist on Amazon though, you only need to tell the ASIN for this existing product – see Listing existing products on Amazon for more details. Since you don’t have to provide any category specific details, you do not need a listing profile at all – or you can use the generic Listing Loader feed template, which will work for all kinds of products and is much simpler to set up.
All of these are globally unique IDs which identify a particular product and package size. While EANs are used in Europe, UPCs are used in the US and other countries – and ISBNs are used for books. Amazon does support the following Product IDs:
For more information see Locating Product Identifiers on Amazon and Global Trade Item Number on Wikipedia.
If you have are a registered brand with Amazon and therefore are excluded from the usual UPC requirement to list new products, there are still a couple of things you should know:
Since the “Product ID” field in your feed template is officially “Required”, you can not leave this field empty – or you won’t be able to save the profile. We suggest you leave the default [amazon_product_id] shortcode here – that will pull the value from the “Product ID” field on the edit product page, which you can leave empty.
Even without the requirement to provide a valid UPC or EAN when listing new products, you still need to provide a unique “key identifier” – usually labeled “Model Number” or “Style Number” in your profile – or you might run into problems submitting you feed, especially with variations. If you don’t have any other unique attribute in WooCommerce, we suggest you simply use your SKU as model number.
The Brand Registry account settings option
Once you have your brand registered with Amazon, please visit Amazon » Accounts » Settings, click on Edit to edit your account – and you’ll find the Brand Registry option. Enable that option to let WP-Lister know that you don’t need UPCs or EANs. This will suppress some warning messages that you might see otherwise – which only apply to sellers which are required to provide UPCs or EANs.
Adding UPCs, EANs, and ISBNs for Your Products
Most categories require sellers to use a product identifier to create new product pages and offer listings on the Amazon.com website. The most common identifier used by sellers is a UPC.
If you don’t provide a UPC, EAN, or ISBN, you will generally receive an error message. When this occurs, you will need to add the product’s identifier in order to create a new product detail page in the Amazon.com catalog or complete your inventory offering. (If you don’t have a UPC, EAN, or ISBN for your product, buy one with us)
The UPC field is supported in the Add a Product tool and in Inventory File templates.
Add a Product
The Add a Product tool will allow you to create new product detail pages and offerings one at a time. If you search for a product and find it in our catalog, the UPC, EAN, or ISBN will be automatically entered for you and you can continue to create your offering. If you create a new product detail page, you can enter the UPC or EAN on the “Add This Product to Our Catalog” page after completing the product classification step.
Inventory File Feeds
An Inventory File template allows you to use a pre-formatted spreadsheet to enter data for multiple products and then upload the completed file to Amazon. We will either match your data to existing products in our catalog or create a new product page if no match is found.
When preparing an Inventory File Template, enter data into both of these fields:
product-id: The product’s unique identifier, which is the actual UPC (12-digit number), EAN (13-digit number), or ISBN (10-digit number)
product-id-type: The type of unique identifier entered in the product-id field, either UPC, EAN, or ISBN
