What you need to know!
Starting any business is challenging! It’s an investment of time and money. Blood, sweat, and tears. It’s also a test of patience. Profits may take a while to trickle in, so hard work and dedication are the priorities when launching from scratch, building brick by brick.
An online business relies on the same principles. There are stark similarities (and differences). If you purchased an empty brick-and-mortar store, you may have chosen to purchase that physical space based on many different criteria.
- Location
- Foot Traffic
- Condition of store
- Space
Just like you would consider those things, you can also purchase an Amazon seller account. Considered “digital real estate”, you’re purchasing a store with reputation, and traffic – placing you paces above the competition.
What metrics should you look for before buying an Amazon Seller account from AIA?
- Seller Health – An account with good feedback, an account with few (or no) performance notifications
- Age of business – the longer the account has been open (and selling) the more valuable it is! No reserve, daily payouts – all added value!
How does buying an account work?
It’s pretty straightforward!
- You come to the team at AIA and let us know the type of account you’re looking for
- We will send you a list of Available Amazon seller accounts that fit your budget and expectations
- We will arrange a “real-time” conversation with our account manager (using screen share or TeamViewer) where you can view and examine the account(s) to help narrow your decision.
- Once your interest in a specific account has been confirmed, our legal team will draw up a contract, based on the agreed-upon payment terms.
- We accept all methods of payment including Payoneer, Wire/SWIFT/SEPA, and Direct Bank Transfer.
- As your sales partner, we will gather and upload your details into your new Amazon account. Once complete, all your data will be deleted. We never store any of your personal information.
Things to update after buying an Amazon seller account
Once you bought the account, there is a list of things that will need to be updated:
- Login information– Get the correct login information from the seller and update the account information. You will be given user name(s), passwords, and 2-factor identification details and we will ensure you have unrestricted access to your new account.
- Deposit & charge methods – You will need to update both the credit card information (charge method) and deposit method (banking information)
- Contact Information– You should update your account name and email address to reflect in Amazon’s database. Amazon sends all future communications to the same email address.
- Tax details – To complete the ownership transfer, the new owner will need to update their tax information.
Selling on Amazon can offer HUGE rewards, but it doesn’t come without some risk. Keep abreast of Amazon’s constantly changing terms and conditions and maintain good health status on your account.
