Amazon Buy Box Eligibility: FBA Sellers Guide for 2022

1.       What is Buy Box? How It Works for Sellers?

Amazon is an internationally vast marketplace. Amazon itself sells products with wide range of categories; also third-party retailers, who typically specialize in one or more categories. There are two types of sellers on Amazon, Amazon itself, and third-party sellers. As, there is no limit to the number of sellers who can use Amazon platform can be multiple sellers on Amazon which result in frequent sell of the same item (such sellers are known as resellers).

Do you know that 83% of all Amazon sales happen through the Buy Box? Consequently, if you’re not in the Buy Box, your chances of making a sale are pretty less.

Amazon Buy Box eligibility is defined as “Professional Sellers” who have met Amazon’s performance-based requirements.

Buy Box is the highlighted box in the above image that allows customers to add items for purchase in their carts. Not every seller is eligible to have a Buy Box.

When customer buying multiple products, there will be more buying option for buyer. When a buyer selects “Add to Cart” the seller who has the Buy Box at that moment in time gets that all-important sale and makes a quick purchase without considering who they are buying from (Amazon or a third-party seller).

As there is a high competition on Amazon, thanks to its customer’s first approach, only sellers with exceptional metrics have a chance to win a share of this beneficial feature.

If you pass Amazon’s minimum eligibility requirements, Amazon further distinguish the sellers according to different variables. If a single seller have strong variables than his percentage share for Buy Box will be higher. For the top selling items with many sellers, Amazon may rotate their spot on Buy Box.
