FBA New Selection

By participating in FBA New Selection, you can qualify for free monthly storage, free liquidations of unproductive inventory, and free return processing for all eligible new-to-FBA parent ASINs for a limited time. If you are a brand-registered seller, you may qualify to receive a monthly rebate of 5% on your sales of eligible branded new-to-FBA parent ASINs.

If you are an existing FBA seller, to participate, you must enroll in the program. After you enroll, we will determine whether you qualify for the fee waivers based on the eligibility criteria below. If you are a new seller who listed your first buyable ASIN and started with FBA in 2022, you will be auto-enrolled into the program.

By participating in FBA New Selection, you agree to the terms and conditions below.

After enrollment, you'll have access to the FBA New Selection dashboard, which shows your engagement with the program.

*Starting March 2022, the free liquidations benefit will be the only free value recovery option available in the program in the US. You will still have the opportunity to remove inventory through other removal channels, if preferred. Additionally, for eligible parent ASINs that fail to record a single unit sale in the first 180 days, we will automatically liquidate this inventory for free. To learn more, go to FBA Liquidations.

Professional sellers are eligible to enroll in the FBA New Selection program. If you've been assigned an Inventory Performance Index (IPI) score, you must have a score of 400 or higher to qualify for the program. If you're a new Professional seller you will be automatically enrolled in the program and will receive program benefits. If you have yet to be assigned an IPI score, you can also enroll in the program and receive the program's benefits.

To get the benefits, you must maintain eligibility after enrollment. Your eligibility status will be updated daily, based on your IPI score.

You'll remain eligible until the next yearly assessment on April 1, even if your IPI score changes before that date. If your IPI score is below 400 on the next assessment date, you will be removed from the program.

If you have enrolled but aren't eligible for the program benefits because your IPI score is below 400, you'll become eligible if your IPI score is 400 or higher on the next daily IPI assessment date, even if it comes before the yearly eligibility assessment on April 1.

You must be eligible for the program on the date that your first new-to-FBA ASIN is received at a fulfillment center in order for that ASIN to qualify for the program’s free monthly storage, free liquidations, free return processing benefits, and rebate for branded product sales

To be eligible to receive the 5% sales rebate, you must complete Brand Registry and be identified as a brand owner on the Brand Benefit Eligibility page. The rebate will be applied only to branded new selection where you are the brand owner. While this bonus may not stack with other bonuses offered by Amazon, including the New Seller Incentives bonus, we will always award you the more favorable bonus to you. You can learn more by going to New Seller Incentives.

Standard-size and oversize (including small, medium and large oversize, but not special oversize) items are eligible for the program.

Parent ASINs must be new to FBA.

ASINs in Media categories and used items are not eligible. Media categories are Books, DVDs, Music, Software & Computer/Video Games, Video, Video Game Consoles, and Video Game Accessories.

Only apparel and shoes ASINs are eligible for free return processing.

For more details, see the program terms and conditions section below.

How do liquidations work?

We send your inventory to wholesale liquidators, allowing you to recover typically 5% to 10% of an item’s average selling price. FBA New Selection now offers an alternative to having your inventory disposed of or returned to you.

Free liquidations will be available for:

• Standard-size ASINs: For first 50 units of each new parent ASINs within 180 days after the first inventory received date
• Oversize ASINs: For first 30 units of each new parent ASINs within 180 days after the first inventory received date
• Apparel and shoes: For first 100 units of each new parent ASINs within 180 days after the first inventory received date

You can find more details on FBA Liquidations.

Am I limited to sending 100 or fewer units to fulfillment centers?

No, you can send in as many units as you like. However, only the first 100 units of each eligible apparel and shoes ASIN, the first 50 units of each eligible standard-size ASIN, and the first 30 units of each eligible oversize ASIN that are received at fulfillment centers will qualify for the fee waivers.

What is Brand Registry, and how can I enroll?

Enrolling in Amazon Brand Registry unlocks a suite of tools designed to help you build and protect your brand, creating a better experience for customers. Go to Brand Registry to learn more about their eligibility requirements and application process.

Can I receive both the New Selection 5% rebate and the New Seller Incentives bonus?

For new brand owners, the New Seller Incentives bonus will apply first. You can receive the New Seller Incentives bonus for one year after eligibility is determined, or for your first $1 million in branded sales, whichever comes first. Afterwards, you will qualify for the FBA New Selection rebate.
