Do I need an Amazon Professional Seller Account?

Yes. To use Amazon FBA (Fulfillment by Amazon) or Multi-Channel Fulfillment (MCF) with Shipr, you generally need an Amazon Professional Seller Account.

Shipr integrates with Amazon using the Selling Partner API (SP-API), which is available only to Professional Seller accounts.

Why Is a Professional Seller Account Required?

A Professional Seller Account allows Shipr to securely:

  • Access your Amazon FBA inventory.
  • Create and manage FBA fulfillment orders.
  • Synchronize inventory between Amazon and Shopify.
  • Retrieve order and shipment information.
  • Connect to Amazon using the Selling Partner API (SP-API).

Without a Professional Seller Account, these API features are not available.

Important Notes

  • A Professional Seller Account is required to connect your Amazon Seller account with Shipr.
  • Shipr relies on Amazon's Selling Partner API (SP-API) for inventory synchronization and FBA order fulfillment.
  • Individual Seller accounts do not provide the API access required for Shipr's functionality.

Tip: Before connecting Shipr, ensure your Amazon Seller account is upgraded to the Professional plan and has access to Amazon FBA if you intend to fulfill Shopify orders using your Amazon inventory.
