How to avoid the “pitfalls” encountered in Amazon withdrawals and account association
On the Amazon platform, sellers often face some challenges in fund management and account operations. Understanding these challenges can help reduce potential losses and manage accounts effectively.
Basic withdrawal process on Amazon
Under normal circumstances, Amazon will release funds every 14 days. After the seller receives the payment, he can use payment collection tools (such as Pay Anying) to withdraw funds to his account. Each withdrawal requires manual operation by the seller. If no manual action is taken, the funds will remain in the Amazon account. Many sellers believe that this will not cause losses, but if the account is blocked, the risk of being unable to withdraw funds will become apparent.
For example, in 2019, a store was banned due to complaints of infringement, involving multiple popular products. Because the seller failed to manually withdraw funds in time before the account was closed, the funds could not be withdrawn, resulting in losses. Therefore, it is recommended that sellers use some tools, such as Purple Bird Super Browser, which has a built-in withdrawal function that can automatically withdraw cash. It can automatically process withdrawal requests every time the store is opened, thereby avoiding capital losses caused by operational errors.
How to avoid account association problems
When building and managing products, sellers also need to pay special attention to account association issues. Amazon expressly prohibits the same company or seller from having multiple accounts in the same region (for example, you cannot have two accounts in the United States or Europe at the same time). If caught, the account may be linked and banned. In addition, sellers need to pay attention to the association with other people’s accounts. Especially when working in a public network environment (such as Starbucks’ Wi-Fi), there are risks of account association.
Amazon’s penalties for account association are relatively severe. This is mainly divided into two situations: 1. If the product duplication between the associated accounts is very high, Amazon will usually require the seller to choose one of the two accounts and keep one account; 2. If the product duplication is low, the association itself will not cause problems, but if there is a problem with one of the accounts, all related accounts may be blocked.
In order to avoid this situation, sellers can adopt the following two strategies: first, physical isolation, that is, ensuring that each seller account uses an independent computer and network connection, which can ensure security but is costly; second Second, use the Purple Bird Anti-Association Super Browser to ensure that each account logs in and operates through the browser, thereby reducing association risks.
Properly managing withdrawals and protecting account security are important topics for Amazon sellers. Implementing the above suggestions can effectively reduce risks during the operation, thereby promoting the healthy development of the account and capital flow.
