Amazon - Seller Fulfilled Prime (SFP) requirements

Amazon Seller Fulfilled Prime (SFP) allows you to display the Prime badge on eligible products while fulfilling orders from your own warehouse. Integrating SFP with Shipium enables you to leverage Shipium's carrier selection optimization while meeting Amazon's Prime delivery requirements.

Prerequisites for Seller Fulfilled Prime

Before configuring Amazon SFP in Shipium, ensure you have:

• An active Amazon Seller Central account enrolled in the Seller Fulfilled Prime program
• Your Amazon Business ID (see the Ship With Amazon requirements section above for available values)

• Authorization to complete the Amazon account registration verification process

Key configuration decisions for Seller Fulfilled Prime

The following decisions will shape how Amazon SFP operates within your fulfillment network. Your Shipium Implementation or Customer Success team will assist you with the technical setup in the Shipium Console.

Fulfillment context selection

Determine which fulfillment context should include your Amazon SFP carrier contract. Consider which warehouses will fulfill SFP orders, which other carriers operate alongside SFP in this context, and whether the context will be used exclusively for Amazon orders or serve multiple channels.

Contract naming and identification

Choose a clear naming convention for your SFP contract. You'll provide a human-readable contract name that distinguishes this contract from others (e.g., "Amazon SFP - East Coast DC"). You may also provide an optional unique identifier, which is a case-sensitive ID for API references if your systems will programmatically interact with this contract.

Rating type configuration

Amazon SFP contracts should use Carrier Rating as the rating type. This is because Amazon determines the shipping rates for SFP orders. You'll select this option during carrier rate configuration.
