Helping You as an Amazon Seller

Backup to FBA

If you’ve ever had an Out of Stock at FBA, you know there are financial penalties, and it can quickly drain your profits.  Our API allows you to set up your seller account, so when a product runs out at FBA, you can switch to FBM(Fulfillment By Merchant) and your backup stock that we have in our warehouse. We can seamlessly ship your Amazon orders until you can replenish your stock at FBA.

Storage of excess inventory

There are limitations to how much inventory you can store in Amazon’s warehouse, and there is certainly a cost. We can store your excess product for less and ship it to Amazon when needed.

Prepping for Amazon FBA

  • Breaking Down Shipments: Some manufacturers won’t ship directly to Amazon, and your products may be shipped in bulk. We can break down your bulk shipments, prepare them and properly ship them to FBA for you with the proper Amazon shipping label.
  • Kitting: Multiple items may need to be bundled and packaged together to meet your Amazon listing specs. Our team can package those together so they are shipped as required by Amazon.
  • ASIN Bar code Labels: Each Amazon listing is required to be identified with its unique ASIN bar code. While getting those codes on your items may not be convenient for you. we’re experienced in doing that. You simply generate the bar codes 30 to a page and email it to us in a PDF file, and we’ll apply the labels. Once packaged, we send you the shipping box specifications for you to generate your Amazon shipping labels. We apply the label, and off it goes to Amazon, ready to sell.
  • International ShippingAll items listed on Amazon can’t be shipped internationally due to Amazon restrictions. We ship all over the world and can handle those difficult items for you.
