Overview

Amazon has replaced its Small and Light program with a new low-price FBA rate structure that offers reduced fulfillment fees for inexpensive, lightweight products. The change affects how sellers price and fulfill low-cost items, with new fee tiers designed to make FBA more economical for products priced under $10.

Key Points

• Small and Light program discontinued — Amazon phased out the separate Small and Light program and integrated low-price benefits into standard FBA fee structure
• New low-price FBA rates — Products priced under $10 that meet size and weight requirements qualify for reduced FBA fulfillment fees
• Automatic fee application — Sellers don't need to enroll in separate program; low-price rates apply automatically to qualifying products
• Size and weight requirements — Products must fall within specific dimensions and weight limits to qualify for low-price rates

Fee Structure Changes

• Price threshold — Products priced under $10 qualify for low-price FBA rates
• Weight limits — Products must be under specific weight thresholds (varies by tier)
• Dimension limits — Products must meet size requirements to qualify
• Fee comparison — Review Amazon's FBA fee schedule to compare low-price rates against standard FBA fees for your product tiers

Impact on Former Small and Light Products

• Automatic transition — Products previously enrolled in Small and Light automatically transitioned to new low-price FBA rates
• No action required for transition — Sellers with former Small and Light products didn't need to take action for fee structure change
• Review pricing strategy — Evaluate whether products still qualify for reduced rates under new structure

Seller Impact

• Audit low-cost products — Review all products priced under $10 to verify they meet size and weight requirements for low-price FBA rates
