Amazon FBM Fulfillment Services:Seller Fulfilled Prime or Non-Prime on Your Terms
Control the fulfillment. Cut the FBA fees.
With Fulfilled by Merchant (FBM), you ship your daily Amazon orders yourself or through a trusted 3PL partner like MGGprep. It’s the ultimate move for brands who value speed, margins, and total control - without depending on Amazon’s FBA network.
What is Amazon FBM (Fulfilled by Merchant)?
FBM stands for Fulfilled by Merchant - a model where Amazon sellers handle their own storage, packaging, and shipping, either in-house or via a 3PL like MGGprep.
Unlike FBA, you don’t send inventory into Amazon. We fulfill all daily orders directly as they come in.

Amazon FBM Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between FBA and FBM?
FBA means Amazon handles fulfillment from their network. FBM means you (or your 3PL) fulfill Amazon orders yourself. FBM gives you more control and lower cost, but you must meet shipping standards.
Is FBM allowed on Amazon?
Yes. Amazon supports both FBA and FBM. Many sellers use a hybrid model to optimize margins and performance.
Do I lose the Prime badge with FBM?
Standard FBM listings are not Prime-eligible, but you can enroll in Seller Fulfilled Prime (SFP) to offer Prime shipping with your own fulfillment.
Can I use the same inventory for FBM and my DTC site?
Yes. MGGprep lets you centralize inventory across channels—including Shopify, Ebay, Amazon, Walmart, TikTok Shop and more.
Is FBM cheaper than FBA?
It can be. Especially for large, seasonal, or slow-moving items. You avoid FBA’s storage, labeling, and inbound fees.
Can I sell FBM + FBA on the same listing?
Yes and many sellers do. By using both channels sellers can maximize profit margins. A use case would be when there are returns that need to be resold as new, used-like new, used-very good etc, that can be done through the FBM channel on the same listing as all your FBA inventory.
When does Amazon FBM make strategic sense?
FBM isn’t a backup plan—it’s a power move when used correctly.
