Amazon seller news in plain English. Fee changes, policy updates and new marketplace features, with the dates and actions that matter.
In the UK, Amazon's peak season fulfilment fee runs from 15 October 2026 to 14 January 2027, at an average of 12p per unit for standard parcels. Storage costs also nearly double from October to December. Separately, Amazon has announced its 2027 US fees: fulfilment goes up by about 19 cents per unit on average from 15 January 2027.
Amazon has launched Seller Wallet GBP in Seller Central. Sellers on Amazon.co.uk can keep their earnings in pounds, pay UK suppliers directly and move money to their bank when they choose. Transfers in pounds are free, and converting to other currencies costs up to 1.5%.
Amazon has switched on "FBA Returnless Resolutions" for sellers on Amazon.co.uk, Germany, France, Italy and Spain. You can let customers keep items worth up to £75 instead of sending them back, and still give a refund. Amazon doesn't pay you anything for the stock the customer keeps.
