You sell it, we ship it

Amazon’s Multi-Channel Fulfilment (MCF) helps you increase your sales by giving you access to Amazon’s world-class fulfilment network, operational expertise and trusted shipping options. This applies regardless of where the orders are placed — both on Amazon.de and via other sales channels.

Fast delivery

Leverage the efficiency and accuracy that powers Amazon Prime. You can offer expedited (1 day) or standard (3-5 business days) delivery options.

Simplify operations

Let Amazon free you up for your core business, by managing your inventory placement, shipping carriers and fulfilment all across the EU.

Unbranded packaging

Orders are shipped in unbranded packaging that does not have an Amazon brand logo.*

*Unbranded packaging is available for suitable/sortable inventory. This does not include clothing and shoes, items larger than 45.72 x 35.56 x 20.32 cm and/or heavier than 9 kg.

How Amazon Multi-Channel Fulfilment works

Send all or some of your inventory directly to an Amazon fulfilment centre. When customers purchase products on your website or another third-party sales channel, we receive your orders and pick, pack and deliver them directly to your customers.

MCF is available with or without Fulfilment by Amazon (FBA). If you do use FBA to sell on Amazon, your existing inventory will serve both Amazon customers and customers from your other sales channels.

Getting started

If you have inventory within an Amazon fulfilment centre, you can utilise any of the below methods with no additional registration required. MCF offers three simple solutions:

1 Quick and easy order creation

This feature allows you to create fulfilment orders one at a time via an easy-to-use tool within Seller Central.

Ideal for:

Selling partners that want to explore the benefits of MCF
Selling partners with lower order volumes

The MCF order creation page can be accessed in two separate ways:

Directly via this link. Save the URL in your bookmark for quick access later on
Within Seller Central:

From top navigation of Seller Central, select the "Inventory" drop-down
Select the products you want to create a fulfilment order for
from the top action menu choose "Create fulfilment order"

Both options above will bring you to the MCF order creation page. There, you will just need to provide your customer’s delivery address, items to fulfil and a delivery speed selection in order to quickly place an order.

2 Bulk order creation

This feature allows you to create multiple fulfilment orders at once by populating a standard order entry excel spreadsheet and then uploading it in the Bulk order creation page.

Ideal for:

Selling partners with high order volumes that do not want to integrate with an API
Selling partners with customers with reoccurring orders and/or subscriptions

The MCF order creation page can be accessed in two separate ways:

Directly via this link. Save the URL in your bookmark for quick access later on
Within the "Multi-channel fulfilment order creation" page, you can access the bulk order upload functionality by clinking on the "Upload flat file" button on the top right corner of the page.

Note: The system will flag errors for orders that have been submitted in the file. The orders that do not have issues will be created. Orders that contain errors must be resubmitted with the errors corrected.

3 API integration

MCF offers a robust set of APIs that allow you to connect your selling channels directly to the FBA fulfilment channel. With API integration there is no requirement for manual effort in creating MCF orders. Fulfilment orders are automatically created when your customers place orders in your off-Amazon sales channel.

Ideal for:

Selling partners with a high order volume where manually creating orders would be too cumbersome
Selling partners that sell on a wide range of marketplaces

This can be accomplished in several ways:

Direct integration

You can integrate directly with MCF. Reference our developer friendly APIs to create your own custom integration. Documentation

Multi-Channel Fulfilment has simplified our operations and allowed us to grow across multiple direct sales channels without adding supply chain complexity. Amazon’s fast and reliable delivery allows all of our customers to have a best-in-class experience regardless of the site they find us on.
