Save money on Amazon shipping: What sellers need to consider

In this post we would like to point out an opportunity to save money on Amazon shipping. Other news concerns the Amazon webinars in August: We present you the most important dates. We also talk about the new laws on sales tax and the associated Amazon promotion.

How to save money on Amazon shipping

As an Amazon Seller you can save money on Amazon shipping by using logistics centers in our neighboring countries Poland and Czech Republic. If you do this, you pay 35 cents less per unit sold. For smaller items, the price is reduced by 25 cents. Storage in these countries is even desired by Amazon, as the shipping network is thus better balanced and the transport to the various destinations works optimally. You can find the corresponding setting in Seller Central under the options for cross-border shipping. However, you should note that this option only exists for Amazon FBA sellers. If you need more information about what Amazon FBA actually is, you can find the appropriate post here.

Amazon sales tax: new legislation
