2022 Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA) Review: Costs & Features

If you’re new to Amazon and don’t yet have a seller account, you’ll need to make one to use FBA. Once registered, you’ll send your inventory to an Amazon fulfillment center on a shipping pallet or through a freight forwarding company directly from your supplier. Alternatively, a service like ShipBob can prep and send your inbound FBA shipments for you.

After it’s received, the merchandise can be further distributed across FBA’s warehouse network to optimize logistics.

To store your products in an Amazon fulfillment center, you’ll pay an inventory storage fee. These fees depend on the size of your items and the time during which they’re stored. Amazon FBA storage fees start at 53 cents/cubic foot and go up to $3.63/cubic foot during busier seasons, such as Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Amazon stores inventory either in bulk or in individual accessible locations that are primed for “picking” orders. Media products are stored on library-type shelving in vertical, spine-out positions with loose stacking to avoid “shelf wear.” Specialty items, like food or high-value goods, may be placed in the fulfillment center’s specific secure or climate-controlled areas as appropriate.

FBA has implemented a storage system often referred to as inventory commingling, which has created a new level of risk for sellers. The company attempts to streamline distribution by grouping identical products from different sellers in its warehouse facilities, which means that the goods another retailer bought and shipped to FBA could be sent to the customer who made a purchase on your listing.

This practice has led to counterfeit and faulty products making their way into the supply chain—harming the reputation and eligibility of sellers at no fault of their own. It’s a risk that should be assessed by anyone selling goods that aren’t unique to their store.

When a customer places an order on Amazon or another sales channel, FBA picks, packs, and ships the merchandise.

In addition to inventory storage fees, you’ll pay a fulfillment fee covering all of these processes. These FBA fees start at $3.07/unit for small items (weighing 6 ounces or less) and go up to $200+ per unit for special, oversized products (like hot tubs and deep freezers). The charge includes labor, shipping costs, and packing materials—but it’s worth noting that custom/branded outer packing is not an option.

Products in certain categories, namely clothing and accessories, are subject to greater fulfillment fees. These costs start at $3.43/unit for goods in the ‘Small standard’ size tier.

In alignment with the platform’s focus on speed and convenience, the turnaround time for order fulfillment is very quick—largely thanks to the warehouses’ ample workforce. Amazon customers get tracking information from the company and receive their orders within two business days, thanks to fast Prime shipping.

As orders come in and stock depletes, you’ll need to manage your inventory in accordance with Amazon’s Restock Report. This provides recommendations on what to replenish, when to do so, and how much to ship.

Keeping proper inventory levels allows you to maximize sales by meeting demand without overstocking. Plus, it increases the chances of your goods being eligible for free same-day or next-day shipping, which is a major incentive for buyers.

If post-sale servicing is needed (such as customer assistance, order returns, or refunds), Amazon handles the interaction. The company’s team of representatives is available to customers 24/7 through multiple communication channels.

Returns are handled, discarded, and/or restocked to your specifications, and the platform manages refund payments.

Selling on Amazon comes at a cost, regardless of how you fulfill your orders. A professional seller account is $39.99 per month, or individual sellers can opt to pay 99 cents per item sold.

You’ll cover the cost of shipping your merchandise to FBA, which varies depending on the shipment’s origin and attributes. Amazon has negotiated shipping discounts through its partnered carriers.

The costs to pick an order from FBA’s storage location(s), pack it, ship it, and handle customer service and returns start at $3.07 per unit and go up to $200+ for special, oversized items. The total of this charge takes many factors into consideration, including:

• Size
• Weight
• Quantity
• Category
• Sales channel
• Shipping speed (for multichannel orders)

FBA’s base fulfillment fees are outlined below:

Multichannel sellers should note that FBA charges greater fulfillment fees to fulfill non-Amazon orders (we’ll go into those exact costs later on). It also tacks on a greater cost for items in certain categories, such as apparel and dangerous goods, regardless of sales channel.

FBA charges a removal fee if you want to pull inventory from Amazon and/or dispose of unsold stock. The cost of this service is determined by weight and size tier and ranges from $0.52 to $7.25+.

It’s worth noting that many sellers have had issues with delayed stock removal, meaning their inventory has stayed in FBA’s warehouses for weeks or even months after they paid for and requested its removal. This problem incurs unexpected storage costs and reduced revenue for affected merchants.

Amazon has strict barcode label specifications for all stock received by FBA. You may be assessed a labeling fee of 55 cents per unit if items are not labeled properly.

FBA has stringent product packaging and prep guidelines. To avoid handling them yourself, you can opt to have Amazon pack and prep your products upon inbound receiving for a fee.

If you don’t opt into FBA’s prep service in advance, you’ll incur an unplanned prep fee for sending improperly prepared products. These charges vary by product and service type and range from 20 cents–$2.00 per unit.

The cost of a potential return is included in the fulfillment fee for most items, but goods in certain categories (such as apparel and accessories) don’t qualify for this service. For those particular products, FBA bills a return processing fee equal to the original fulfillment fee. If the returned products need repackaging for resale, Amazon charges an additional repackaging fee.

The cost of storing your products at an FBA warehouse starts at 53 cents per cubic foot of space and goes up to $2.40 per cubic foot. FBA storage fees vary by season, increasing up to 200% during the months of October to December. The assessed cost also depends on the size of the product and whether it falls into the “dangerous goods” category.

Amazon deems dangerous goods as “substances or materials that may pose a risk during storing, handling, or transporting because they contain flammable, pressurized, corrosive, or otherwise harmful substances.”

This includes lithium batteries—usually found in power banks, cameras, mobile phones, battery chargers, and other electronics—and any magnetized material, which is often a component of speakers, headphones, light meters, magnetic decals, small tools, and toys.

Other items may be deemed dangerous. Products that have this designation must follow specific requirements and are subject to additional fees. Check out Amazon’s hazmat guide for more info.

For inventory held at an FBA warehouse longer than 270 days, sellers incur long-term storage fees. Between 271 and 365 days of storage, an additional $1.50 per cubic foot may be added to your fees. Beyond 365 days of storage, an additional 15 cents per unit may be tacked on, or your costs will increase to $6.90 per cubic foot (whichever is greater).

Though Amazon doesn’t provide these, downloadable tools such as Sellics, InventoryLab, and Jungle Scout exist to make selling with FBA easier (and more profitable). These apps boost your marketing, inventory management, and reporting capabilities by integrating with your Amazon account. Third-party tools like these can incur a cost of up to $100+ per month, so it’s important to factor them in when calculating your outlay.

If you use sales channels other than Amazon (such as your own Shopify store and/or other online marketplaces like eBay) you can use FBA to fill those orders, too. Amazon calls this service Multi-Channel Fulfillment, or MCF.

For multichannel FBA users, inventory storage fees remain the same, but MCF fulfillment fees are higher. MCF orders don’t incur an added Amazon seller fee.

With most MCF orders, you can select between three different shipping methods: Standard, Expedited Two-Day, and Priority One-Day. This is helpful if you offer a range of shipping options on your own ecommerce store or website.

Here’s a look at what MCF orders cost to fulfill through FBA:

Examples of FBA Multichannel Fulfillment Fees

Size Category and Dimensions	Tablet case Small standard 13.8 x 9 x 0.7 inches	T-shirt Large standard  14 x 10 x 0.76 inches	Baby cot Small oversize 24 x 7.5 x 6 inches	Television Large oversize 54 x 35 x 3.5 inches
Shipping Weight	2.88 oz.	12.32 oz.	7.9 lb.	41 lb.
Standard Shipping	$5.35	$7.95	$15.26	$103.39
Expedited Shipping	$8.15	$10.00	$17.43	$122.99
Priority Shipping	$16.64	$17.95	$30.05	$167.00

Source: Amazon

If an MCF order contains multiple units, the cost per unit decreases. So, the T-shirt that costs $7.95 to fulfill on its own would cost $5.15 to fulfill in an order along with one other item, or $4.54 to fulfill in a three-item order.

Like with Amazon orders, the MCF fee accounts for the entire process of picking items from inventory, packing, and shipping. But, Amazon does not handle post-sales servicing for MCF orders. This means that you’ll need to field all multichannel customer inquiries, returns, and refunds yourself (or hire employees to do so).

If you compare Amazon’s MCF fees to the shipping rates you’d pay to fulfill orders yourself, you’ll likely find MCF is a pretty good deal. While this is the case, multichannel sellers who don’t focus mainly on Amazon sales are better off partnering with a cheaper 3PL, such as ShipBob.

Amazon has 110 FBA warehouses strategically located across the continental US (see the full list of warehouse locations below)—plus 75 additional fulfillment centers worldwide. This allows sellers to split inventory across multiple warehouses, keeping products in close proximity to multiple customer bases.

FBA’s large warehouse network also simplifies inbound shipping and importing by enabling merchants to use warehouses close to their suppliers or ports of destination.

To compare with competing fulfillment companies, ShipMonk has a total of 10 warehouse locations, and Red Stag has just two. It’s rare to find a small business-friendly 3PL with infrastructure as vast as FBA.

Amazon’s Seller Support team serves FBA users in addition to all other Amazon sellers. While FBA ratings on sites like Trustpilot and G2 are scarce, there’s an abundance of discussion about the service elsewhere—such as forums like Reddit, Quora, and Amazon’s own Seller Forums.

While Amazon customer service is highly responsive and effective for shoppers, Seller Support is notoriously unreliable—reportedly leaving users waiting multiple weeks or even months for issue resolution. It’s also reported that the majority of Seller Support is outsourced to third-party representatives with insufficient training.

If you search for Seller Support contact info online, you’ll come across a phone number that’s actually reserved for Amazon customers. The only way to contact Seller Support is by filling out a ticket and requesting a call or email.

It’s not uncommon for fulfillment companies to structure their support this way; when response time is fast, a lack of on-demand customer service is typically a non-issue. But, FBA’s response time is reportedly very slow, and some users state that it requires multiple follow-up requests in order to speak with someone.

In addition to Seller Support, a seller community forum and online knowledge base are available for users to troubleshoot on their own.

FBA’s proprietary turnkey integrations are pretty limited, but thanks to its open APIs and enormous popularity, thousands of FBA integrations are readily available through third-party developers.

Plus, FBA directly integrates with certain ecommerce integration service providers such as WebBee. This makes it possible to integrate with any of your necessary tools or platforms quickly and easily—though it may come at an additional cost.

Other companies, such as Zapier, have created numerous plug-and-play integrations to connect FBA and Amazon Seller Central to a host of other apps and programs you may use.

If you’re unable to find your desired integration pre-made, FBA’s developer-friendly APIs make it possible to have a connection custom-made fairly easily. However, unlike other fulfillment partners such as ShipBob and Red Stag, FBA does not offer integration development as a value-add service.

Here’s a list of FBA’s current proprietary direct integrations:

• Ecommerce platforms and marketplaces: WooCommerce, VTEX, 3dcart, Shopify, WebBee, and Bytestand
• Freight and shipping solutions: AfterShip
• Operations, inventory, and order management: ChannelAdvisor, Listing Mirror, Orderhive, Zentail, Skubana, Sellbrite, and Sellercloud

One of the most popular features of FBA is the free two-day Prime shipping for Amazon Prime subscribers. Some products are eligible for free shipping, even if a buyer isn’t a Prime member. However, it might take a little longer for the package to arrive for non-members.

FBA product listings prominently feature the Amazon Prime logo, signaling to Prime members they can purchase your product with free Prime two-day shipping or other Prime offers. Prime boasts nearly 200 million subscribers who look for the Prime logo while shopping—so FBA products attract far more buyers than non-Prime products.

Amazon offers free shipping on orders over $25 to all buyers, Prime or not. The caveat is that these must be eligible products, and that list of eligible products includes FBA items. The same applies to Amazon coupon deals or buyer events like Prime Day and Cyber Days; FBA products qualify for these offers, too.

In addition to the standard processes of order fulfillment, FBA performs all customer service-related tasks for your Amazon orders. The company’s well-established CS team is available 24/7 by phone, email, or live chat on the app or website and has a reputation for providing highly accommodating support.

The cost of outsourcing this level of service elsewhere would be astronomical. Call center outsourcing in the US can cost anywhere from $25 to $65 per hour for each hired representative. To have just one employee on call for these hours would cost thousands of dollars each month—and potentially hundreds of thousands each year. In that regard, FBA is incredibly cost-effective.

FBA listings get a significant edge over non-FBA items in Amazon’s search engine algorithm. This leads to higher rankings for FBA products in Amazon’s product search results—which leads to more sales.

Another advantage is prioritization in Amazon’s Buy Box, which is the “Add to Cart” button on most product listings. When viewing a product sold by multiple sellers, hitting this button will add one chosen listing to the customer’s cart.

The platform selects which listing gets to “own the Buy Box” using an algorithm that considers price, shipping speed, seller metrics, and fulfillment method. The most heavily weighted factor in determining Buy Box ownership? Use of FBA.

The Buy Box (A) is the spot every Amazon seller wants their listing to occupy. The top listing is what automatically sells when the “Add to Cart” button is clicked. FBA Prime-eligible products take preference if there’s a price tie and can even win the Buy Box over lower-priced non-FBA products (B).

FBA’s Small and Light program reduces fulfillment costs on certain items, which allows for better profit margins. To be eligible for Small and Light pricing, products must weigh 3 pounds or less and sell quickly according to Amazon’s product identification data. Qualifying merchandise must also cost $10 or less and measure 18 x 14 x 8 inches or less.

Certain items that require special handling—such as dangerous goods, temperature-sensitive goods, or restricted goods—don’t qualify for the Small and Light program.

Here are FBA’s Small and Light fulfillment fees:

Although these products are still subject to standard storage and seller fees, enrolling in FBA’s Small and Light program can increase your store’s profitability and create more opportunity to test products in new markets.

The Subscribe & Save feature on Amazon gives customers a discount and free shipping when they sign up for a product subscription—which is a recurring, automated purchase. This gives customers a convenient, regular delivery at their chosen interval and helps sellers obtain repeat customers. It’s one of the best ways to have consistent revenue with Amazon.

The Subscribe & Save buying option can be offered to customers on your FBA listings as a convenient scheduled purchase.

It doesn’t cost anything for sellers to offer the Subscribe & Save feature. However, merchants will need to meet minimum requirements (such as a feedback rating of 4.7 or higher) and maintain good standing with the platform. The feature is only available to sellers who have been using FBA for three months or more.

FBA is a service for Amazon-focused businesses that sell physical products. You may be a good candidate for FBA if 80% or more of your sales come from Amazon, and your store processes more orders than you can—or want to—fulfill on your own.

The company specializes in DTC ecommerce sales, but also supports Amazon’s program for B2B sales.

• With its pricey multichannel fulfillment (MCF) fees and lack of common services, FBA is a poor fit for multichannel sellers who don’t have a competitive focus on Amazon. ShipBob is our top-recommended solution for ecommerce order fulfillment.
• FBA doesn’t offer batch fulfillment services, so it won’t work for crowdfunding fulfillment. ShipBob has built-out programs for crowdfunding ventures as well as other nontraditional ecommerce businesses.
• Sellers dealing in products that require special handling should also seek an alternative fulfillment solution. FBA doesn’t offer liability insurance, services for goods like ammunition, or economical storage for oversized goods. We recommend Red Stag Fulfillment for these needs—it’s also Seller-Fulfilled Prime (SFP)-eligible.
