What is the difference between amazon FBM and FBA

Question

Accepted Answer

FBM involves sellers fulfilling orders themselves, while FBA involves Amazon storing, packing, and shipping products for sellers.

FBM stands for Fulfillment by Merchant, where sellers handle all aspects of order fulfillment themselves.
FBA stands for Fulfillment by Amazon, where sellers send their products to Amazon's fulfillment centers and Amazon takes care of storage, packing, and shipping.
FBM gives sellers more control over the fulfillment process but requires more time and effort on their part.
FBA allows sellers to benefit from Amazon's logistics network and Prime eligibility, but comes with fees and storage costs.
Example: A seller using FBM would receive an order, pack the product, and ship it to the customer themselves. A seller using FBA would send their products to Amazon, who would handle storage, packing, and shipping when an order is placed.
