Registered account type
There are only two types of Amazon accounts:
1. Professional Sales Plan
2. Individual Sales Plan
Whether you are an individual or a company, you can complete account registration and start selling through Amazon's self-registration channel. There is no difference in permissions (traffic, number of products on the shelves, product review requirements, etc.) between accounts opened in the name of a company and in the name of an individual. The main difference between the two plans is the fee structure and feature access. Taking the Japanese market as an example, we can clearly see from the table below that the "Personal Selling Plan" will be charged a per-item fee, while the "Professional Selling Plan" account will need to pay a monthly usage fee.
