One person wants to open an Amazon store alone? In fact, it is a very normal phenomenon now. Generally, one does not need to bring a family with him to open an Amazon store. One person is more than enough to open an Amazon store alone. So what are the procedures for one person to open an Amazon store alone?
1. Qualifications:
1) Amazon
a. Company business license (the North American site can be registered with personal qualifications)
There is no requirement for the company registration time. It can be newly registered or it can be registered and operated for many years. There is no clear requirement for the company's business scope. Trade, electronics, technology, and commerce companies are all OK. The business scope covered by the company's business license will not directly affect the Amazon account registration and subsequent operations. However, it should be reminded that if it is completely irrelevant, such as using the business license of a logistics company to register an Amazon account, it may not be approved;
b. Proof of legal person's identity
Naturally, it is the legal person's ID card. The ID card needs to be photographed on both sides, and the front and back sides must be combined into one picture. You may also be asked to submit a photo of the legal person holding the ID card.
c. Dual currency credit card
A credit card is required during the registration process, but the credit card must be a dual-currency credit card, which is the credit card we often use with the VISA or Mastercard logo on the face. Before registering, you need to activate your credit card and make sure the available balance on the card is more than $40.
d. Email
You can use any email address, but you need to make sure that the email address you use is not one that you have registered with Amazon before;
e. Telephone: landline or mobile phone
The phone number used is not a phone number that has been registered on the Amazon platform before;
f. Receiving account
In the new registration process, there is a step to add a payment account, so sellers need to register a payment account before registering an Amazon account. The receiving account is somewhat similar to Alipay. For sellers, it serves as a transit point between loans released from the Amazon platform and withdrawals to domestic bank cards. Currently, the commonly used payment tools include: lianlianpay (customer feedback shows that the timeliness and service are very good; I highly recommend it) Jason Guan’s cross-border business section will display relevant information; other World First, pingpong, and payoneer are also welcome to discuss cooperation, but the rates and services of these payment tools are
2. Amazon store opening costs:
1) Amazon store opening fees
Amazon sellers are divided into two categories: professional sellers and individual sellers:
a. Monthly rent
Professional sellers: $39.99/month; Individual sellers: no monthly fee;
b. Single piece sales cost
Professional sellers: no per-item fee; Individual sellers: Amazon will charge $0.99 for each item sold
c. Sales commission (sales commission paid to the platform for each item sold)
There are different regulations for sales commission ratios and minimum commissions per item for different categories of goods, ranging from 8% to 15%.
In summary: How much does it cost to open a store on Amazon? If you simply calculate the store opening fees, excluding the store opening information, product procurement costs, and labor costs required by the seller, the cost for professional sellers is US$39.9 per month, and there is no monthly rent for individual sellers.
3. Amazon payment fees
The section on Amazon payment can actually be discussed separately, because it involves the issue of payment. At that time, the store must have started to receive orders. Amazon payment can be regarded as the last part of making money, because Amazon sellers’ money can only be considered to be truly earned if it is truly “intact” and can be withdrawn back to China. It is recommended to use Airwallex for Amazon payment. There is no threshold for Airwallex. You can register with your mobile phone number and bind it to your store for use.
