Ways to keep more on Amazon
- The Individual plan beats Professional only under 40 sales a month, and it locks you out of advertising and the Buy Box.
- Clothing is the most fee-sensitive category: a $19.99 shirt pays 10%, a $20.01 shirt pays 17%.
- FBA fees are per unit shipped, so multipacks shipped as one unit pay one fulfillment fee.
