How can I start selling on Amazon?
It’s very simple. To start selling on Amazon, follow the steps below:
- Firstly, choose your selling plan based on the number of products you think you will sell each month. We offer two types of plan: Individual and Professional. We have an easy fee calculator to help you understand how much you can earn with each plan for a certain number of products sold.
- Next, you will need to complete the registration process. This requires a valid Amazon customer account or business email address, as well as your (or your company’s) credit card details. You will also need to submit a valid ID document (for example, a copy of your passport or national identity card). If you run a company, you'll also need to share your company registration details, including tax certificates (such as a VAT certificate). Lastly, you will need to provide your phone number and bank account details.
- Once your registration has been completed, you'll have access to yourSeller Central account from which you can manage your business.
- Next, you'll need to list your products by adding a product ID, SKU, product title, product description, product images, relevant search terms and keywords, and the price of each product.
- Then you'll need to choose the right fulfilment option to deliver your products to your customers.
- You’ll then be ready to start selling on Amazon.
