Overview

Amazon Seller Wallet allows marketplace sellers to manage their bank account information directly within Seller Central, giving them control over where and how their funds are disbursed. Understanding how to properly add, view, and update bank accounts in Seller Wallet is essential for maintaining uninterrupted payouts and managing cash flow across your selling operations.

Key Points / What Sellers Need to Know

• Seller Wallet is your payment hub — It centralizes all bank account management in one place within Seller Central, allowing you to add multiple accounts and choose where funds are sent.
• Bank accounts must be verified — When you add a new bank account, Amazon requires verification before it can receive disbursements, which may take a few business days.
• You control disbursement timing — Once your bank accounts are set up, you can select which account receives your payouts and initiate transfers when you're ready.
• Changes take effect on future disbursements — Updating your bank account information applies to upcoming payment cycles, not to transfers already in progress.
• Multiple accounts are supported — Sellers can add more than one bank account to Seller Wallet, which is useful for managing funds across different currencies or business entities.

How to Add or Update a Bank Account

To manage your bank accounts, navigate to the Seller Wallet section within Seller Central. From there, you can view all currently linked bank accounts and their status. To add a new account, follow the on-screen instructions in the bank account information section, which will prompt you for details such as your bank name, account number, and routing number. Once submitted, Amazon will verify the account before making it available for disbursements. If you need to update an existing account, you can do so from the same interface — though for security reasons, certain changes may require re-verification.

Disbursing Funds to Your Bank Account

After your bank accounts have been added and verified, they will appear in your Seller Wallet dashboard. When you are ready to disburse funds, simply select the desired bank account and initiate the transfer. Amazon typically processes disbursements on a regular schedule, but Seller Wallet gives you visibility into your available balance and pending transfers. Keep in mind that processing times vary depending on your bank and region — domestic transfers generally clear faster than international ones. Sellers who operate across multiple Amazon marketplaces may find it particularly useful to set up dedicated bank accounts for each marketplace to simplify accounting.
