Overview

Amazon's Service Provider Network (SPN) is a curated directory of third-party professionals and agencies that have been vetted by Amazon to offer services specifically designed for marketplace sellers. Whether you need help with product photography, account management, tax compliance, or international expansion, the SPN connects sellers with pre-screened providers who understand the Amazon ecosystem. For sellers looking to outsource specialized tasks without the risk of hiring unknown contractors, it serves as a trusted starting point.

Key Points / What Sellers Need to Know

• Amazon-vetted providers — Every service provider listed in the SPN has gone through an application and review process by Amazon, which includes verification of qualifications and track record. This does not guarantee results, but it does reduce the risk of working with unqualified vendors.
• Wide range of services — The network covers categories including listing optimization, product photography, advertising management, tax and accounting, international expansion support, shipping and logistics, and intellectual property protection.
• Accessible from Seller Central — Sellers can browse and contact service providers directly through their Seller Central account, making it easy to compare options and request quotes without leaving the platform.
• No mandatory fees from Amazon — Amazon does not charge sellers a fee to browse or connect with providers through the SPN. However, the service providers themselves set their own pricing and terms, which sellers negotiate independently.
• Global coverage — The SPN includes providers that operate across multiple Amazon marketplaces, which is particularly useful for sellers expanding into new regions who need local expertise.

How It Works

Sellers access the Service Provider Network through the navigation menu in Seller Central. From there, they can filter providers by service category, marketplace, and language to find professionals that match their specific needs. Each provider listing typically includes a description of their services, areas of expertise, and supported marketplaces. Once a seller identifies a potential provider, they can reach out directly through the platform to discuss their requirements and pricing. Amazon facilitates the initial connection but does not manage the ongoing relationship or guarantee the quality of work delivered. Sellers are responsible for conducting their own due diligence before entering into any service agreement.
