For sellers, linking Amazon accounts is a very troublesome matter and will affect the normal operation of the store. If the account is closed or the entire site is shut down, then some sellers will take the risk. But usually, account association is because multiple Amazon accounts are registered on the same site or the similarity of store products reaches more than 60%. So, let’s learn what is Amazon seller account association?
1. What is Amazon seller account association?
On the Amazon platform, sellers can only register one account on the same site, but can register multiple accounts on different sites. If a seller uses the same information to register multiple accounts, it will lead to account association.
2. How to determine whether the Amazon seller account is related?
1. Hardware factors.
Each computer has a unique MAC address. If you use the same computer to log in to different Amazon sites, it will easily be determined to be account related.
2. Software factors.
The IP address of each computer is unique. If you use the same computer to log in to multiple Amazon accounts, it will also be determined as account association. In addition, browser records, payment accounts, credit cards, names, phone numbers, business licenses, etc. may also lead to account association.
In order to prevent Amazon account association, it is best for sellers to use independent IP addresses, computers, phones, credit cards, payment accounts, etc., and ensure that they are not reused. Additionally, sellers should avoid using the same profile when registering for the Amazon site. If the seller’s account is identified by Amazon as being associated with the account, the product overlap in the store will be very serious, and the seller may be required to remove the product from the shelves, or even cause the account to be closed. Generally speaking, if an account on an Amazon site is closed, accounts on other sites are likely to be closed as well, but there may be a lag in time. Therefore, sellers should pay attention to avoid account association.
The above introduces the relevant knowledge about what Amazon seller account association is. In fact, Amazon account association is very similar to Taobao’s repeated distribution. On the platform, each person can only open one store. If the seller opens If you have multiple stores, you must avoid account association, otherwise you will be severely punished by the platform.
