You sell it, we ship it. Amazon has one of the most advanced fulfilment networks in the world. With Fulfilment by Amazon (FBA), you store your products in Amazon's fulfilment centres, and we pick, pack, ship, and provide customer service for these products. FBA can help you scale your business and reach more customers.
Create your shipping plan, print Amazon shipment ID labels, and send your shipments to Amazon fulfilment centres. Learn more about sending inventory to Amazon.
FBA was a huge part of us choosing to go ahead with Goal Prep. We had neither the time nor space to handle all the orders and shipping, especially with a new baby.

The benefits of FBA
Fast, free, and convenient delivery choices
Amazon Prime members love free two-day shipping on their Prime-eligible orders, and all Amazon.com.au customers can get free shipping on eligible orders over $39. Premium delivery options enhance customer shopping experiences and in turn, increases customer demand and loyalty.
Customers get Amazon's trusted customer service and returns
FBA leverages the Amazon customer service network stretching around the globe, managing customer inquiries, refunds, and returns for your FBA orders.
FBA customer support: Customers can contact our customer support via phone or email, day or night. This service is provided at no extra charge to you, with the exception of the Returns Processing Fee for select product categories. When you use FBA, your time can be spent growing your business or taking a vacation, rather than managing customer service
FBA returns: For orders from the Amazon.com.au website that Amazon fulfils, we will manage all customer service associated with fulfilment of your FBA products. Our Online Returns Centre provides customers with help pages and details about how to contact us in case of concerns. If the customer wants to return a product, we direct them to our convenient Online Returns Centre. Read more about FBA policies regarding Customer Returns for Orders Placed on Amazon.com.au.
Our Multi-Channel Fulfilment service lets your business scale quickly
Our fulfilment centres are built with your inventory in mind, and there's no minimum for the number of products you send. We handle the details to save you time, so you can focus on your business. FBA’s specialized service can help you grow your business without new investments in capital or staffing:
Multi-Channel Fulfilment: Sell from your own or third-party ecommerce sites, with Amazon picking, packing, and shipping to your customers.
It's cost-effective
Pay as you go—you are charged for storage space and the orders we fulfil. The cost of shipping is included in your fees, with no extra charge for Amazon Prime FREE Two-Day Shipping and free shipping on eligible orders. Fees for Selling on Amazon and optional services may apply.
FBA storage and fulfilment fees
Inventory storage fees
Charged for all items stored in an Amazon fulfilment centre, and based on your daily average volume of inventory measured in cubic feet. See how to determine the product size tier for your items.
Long-term storage fees
Assessed monthly for all items stored in a fulfilment centre for more than 365 days. Maintaining sound inventory health can help you avoid long-term storage fees.
Charged when inventory arrives at a fulfilment centre without proper preparation or labeling, making unplanned services required. See unplanned services.
Removal order fees
You can have Amazon return or dispose of your inventory in a fulfilment centre for a per-item fee.
Returns processing fees
The FBA returns processing fee applies to customer-returned products sold on Amazon in categories for which Amazon offers free return shipping.
Referral fees
All sellers (regardless of plan type) pay a referral fee on each item sold. Items in some categories have a per-item minimum referral fee.
Use the tools in your seller account to list products, create shipping plans, send in shipments, track and monitor your shipments, and remove inventory from Amazon fulfilment centres.
Improve sell-through rates and avoid long-term storage fees. Use Inventory Age tools to understand how much inventory you’re holding, and see how long it’s been in fulfilment centres.
Keep your listings active by including necessary pricing and condition information and resolving errors. If your inventory is in fulfilment centres without an associated active listing, it’s not available for purchase.
