Hi,
I have a Amazon Seller Account. I did not start selling yet.
My orders are coming from the UK. I am using Shopify for my website.
I am planning to use FBA for the items I am selling on Amazon.
I am looking for a good Fulfilment Center for orders placed by customers on my website.
I came across Amazon's Multi-Channel Fulfilment.
Will I be able to use MCF for orders coming from my website?
Will it be mixed with my FBA (orders coming from Amazon)?
How do I link my Shopify website to MCF?
Thanks
yes you can, this is what MCF does but it is very expensive.
Is it more expensive than using a third party fulfilment center? Does Amazon provide a cost list (picking item, packaging etc)?
"Is it more expensive than using a third party fulfilment center?"
This is something you have to research as it completely depends on the costs that your nominated 3PL centre gives you. I have no experience in this but my (educated) guess is that it is expensive.
And remember storage charges etc etc that Amazon enjoys.
Use the link that @Seller_d8YGbIjNqwFxngave you and let us know how they compare.
One thing I can tell you is that the delivery times of MCF are extremely slow, eg 1 week for standard delivery, a few days less for expedited. Simply ridiculous.
Yes you can.
There are plugins for Shopify to automatically create a MCF order based on a sale on your website. So you can totally automate the process.
Information about MCF is here and on the left hand side is a link to the current rate card
