Amazon monthly charge
I have been set up on Amazon for around 5 months now with a proffesional selling account.
Im verified/approved however I haven’t been charged the £25+VAT subscription fee apart from when i first enrolled. I thought this was a monthly charge?
Is this correct for a seller account that hasn’t got an active listing?
Kind regards

Turns out its because I dont have an active ASIN. (active out of stock and has been since the start).
Thanks for your help with this!

The £30 a month is not a mandatory fee, but is one of the two selling plans you can choose from.
Professional - where you pay the monthly fee, with added benefits, or
Individual - where you pay an additional small fee per sale.
I am wondering if they have changed recently (?) and automatically downgrade the plan if you have no active listings ??.

It still shows that I have a professional seller account?

Maybe as Jilly said, they’ve not charged as with no listings, your account is sort of dormant ?!
Seller_3ngRfBZG7bqQP
Yes thats what im thinking! just wanted to see if this is normal and has happened to anyone else before.
Hopefully its just that I haven’t got an active listing!

Just be prepared for them to take it in one hit
Is your credit card on file valid ?
Seller_3ngRfBZG7bqQP
Yes valid.
They shouldn’t take it in one hit as I haven’t been selling, has this happened to people before?
Seller_7VbclcPFFRTnc
Yes, normally you downgrade to the free individual selling plan if you are not up and running
That’s why we are a little surprised you’ve not been charged
Just to check too before you do list, are you registered with hmrc and amazon as a business seller - sole trader or ltd company ?
Seller_3ngRfBZG7bqQP
Yes, im registered as a LTD company with both HMRC and Amazon.
Is it worth raising a case with seller support do you think?

You can but it maybe a promotion atm etc
