2.2 How to register an Amazon account
You must register an account to operate on Amazon. There are two types of accounts: self-registered accounts and global store accounts of investment managers.
1. Self-registered account
Self-registration is to register a seller account on the Amazon platform as an individual. Click Sell on Amazon on the Amazon website (www.amazon.com), click the Start selling button, and fill in the required information as required.
Amazon accounts are unique, that is, a business license, a network IP, and an ID number can only register an account once. When registering, some minor errors can cause registration to fail. During the second registration, a new business license, network IP, ID number, etc. are required. Therefore, it is not recommended for new sellers to register an account by themselves.
2. Global store account of the investment manager
Amazon has an investment team in China. New sellers only need to contact the investment manager and submit a new set of information (including a business license, A dual-currency credit card, a scanned copy of the legal person’s ID card and a new email address). After getting the registration link provided by the investment manager, you can register as required.
Notes are as follows.
(1) The type of business license is preferably a trading company or e-commerce company, and the business scope of the business license must include import and export business.
When registering a company, it is recommended to register a sole proprietorship. This will make it easier to provide shareholder information to Amazon. If there are multiple shareholders, multiple copies of information will be required.
(2) Only a dual-currency credit card is required. The platform only accepts Master and Visa credit cards.
(3) When registering an account, the company name and address can be filled in in full Chinese Pinyin, and there is no need to fill in English.
There are many sellers registering accounts in the first quarter of each year, but it is also the easiest time to successfully register. After April, the policy will gradually tighten, and it will be difficult to register an account after June. Because the investment manager has performance tasks when working at Amazon. If the tasks are completed, he will only selectively accept the employment of strong factory-type sellers.
If you want to do cross-border e-commerce and open a store on Amazon, it is recommended that sellers complete account registration before April.
Advantages of a global store account: You can enjoy the support plan of the investment manager for a whole year, and you can participate in regular training to quickly become familiar with the back-end operations. Later, you can also participate in activities such as Lighting Deal and Best Deal to increase product sales. .
