FBA (Fulfilled by Amazon)

Amazon FBA is a fulfillment service where Amazon stores, packs, ships products, and handles customer service on behalf of sellers, allowing them to scale faster and improve delivery performance.

What is Amazon FBA?

Fulfilled by Amazon (FBA) is a service where sellers send their inventory to Amazon warehouses, and Amazon handles storage, order fulfillment, shipping, customer service, and returns.

Benefits of Using FBA
