An FBA seller is an online retailer that participates in the FBA program and manages its inventory through Amazon's online store. In short, the Amazon FBA process works as follows: you sell, and then Amazon ships. You will use Amazon's shipping and logistics system to handle your deliveries.

To further understand how Amazon FBA operates, consider the following:

• The seller sends inventory to Amazon fulfillment centers.

• After the products are delivered to the fulfillment center, Amazon takes, sorts, and stores them.

• The customer purchases the goods from the seller in the marketplace.

• Amazon picks, packs, and sends the customer's order.

• Amazon will handle customer assistance.

• Amazon will also manage returns if the customer requests it.
