How do I start a business on Amazon?
Starting as a seller on Amazon is easier than you think. To start selling on Amazon, you simply have to carry out the following steps one by one:
- First, set your selling plan based on the number of products you think you'll be selling per month. We offer two selling plans: Individual and Professional. We even have a simple fee calculator for selling on Amazon to help you understand how much you can earn from each selling plan for a specific number of products sold.
- Next, you need to complete the registration process. To do this, you'll need your Amazon customer account information or a work email address and your (or your company's) credit card details. You will also need a valid identity document (e.g. a passport copy or an identity card). If you run a business, you'll also need your company registration details, including your VAT registration number, phone number and bank account information.
- Once your registration is complete, you will be granted access to your Seller Central account from where you can manage your business.
- Next, you can offer your products by listing and uploading a product ID, SKU, product title, product description, product images and search terms, as well as relevant keywords and the costs for each product on Amazon.
- Now you need to choose the right shipping option to deliver your products to your customers.
- Now you're ready to sell your products on Amazon.
