Ways to sell with Amazon
Ten quick tips to help you succeed selling on Amazon
Amazon Seller Central vs Vendor Central
There are two types of seller profiles on Amazon: the Amazon Seller, which sells products directly to consumers, and the Amazon Vendor, which sells products to Amazon. It's important to know which type of profile you have so that you can use Amazon's eCommerce platforms effectively.
Amazon Seller
A Seller sells their products directly to consumers (B2C).
Amazon Vendor
A Vendor is a supplier that sells products directly to Amazon, and Amazon resells to customers on their platform (B2B).
Amazon Seller Central
This classification allows companies to sell their products to Amazon customers. In this case, the company has more control over aspects like pricing. As for other aspects like shipping and returns, the company can either facilitate these processes themselves or have Amazon do them.
Amazon Vendor Central
Under this classification, a company acts as Amazon's supplier and sells its products to Amazon. This means that Amazon is responsible for selling, promoting, and delivering the products to the customer. The products are labeled as "Sold by Amazon" on the website.
Amazon Seller Central Features

- Most brands use Seller Central.
Amazon Vendor Central Features

Connectivity for Amazon Sellers
Amazon sellers can only use Amazon’s SP-API to transfer messages to and from the Amazon platform.
The Amazon Selling Partner API (SP-API) is a set of API-based automation functionalities for Amazon Selling Partners. It is an evolution of the Amazon Marketplace Web Service (MWS) APIs. The SP-API provides real-time synchronization of product information such as prices, stock and catalog data.
Connectivity for Amazon Vendors
EDI/SP API - Vendors can connect to Amazon Vendor Central using EDI, or using Amazon's Selling Partner API (SP API). This makes it easier for vendors to manage their inventory and keep track of their sales.
Amazon supports two standards for EDI messages, EDIFACT and X12.
