Overview

Amazon’s Subscribe & Save program can turn one‑off purchases into steady revenue streams, but only users who have been granted explicit rights can see or adjust it in Seller Central. Setting the right permissions protects pricing rules and discount structures while letting the appropriate team members monitor performance. Sellers who overlook these controls risk accidental changes that could erode margins or disrupt customer subscriptions.

Key Points

• Permission‑based visibility — The Subscribe & Save dashboard appears only for accounts that the primary user has authorized; anyone without that grant sees a blank menu.
• Primary holder is the gatekeeper — Only the main account owner can assign or modify Subscribe & Save rights; secondary admins cannot delegate these privileges further.
• Three access levels — Amazon offers “None,” “View Only,” and “View and Edit,” letting you tailor each user’s ability to read data or change settings.
• Changes take effect after saving — Adjusting a user’s level does nothing until you click the “Save” button at the bottom of the permissions page.
• New users must finish onboarding — After you add a colleague, they receive an email with a verification link; the account remains inaccessible until they complete that step.

How Subscribe & Save Permissions Work

1. Open User Permissions — The primary account holder clicks the Settings menu in Seller Central, selects User Permissions, and lands on the central management screen. Example: Jane, the owner of a kitchen‑ware brand, logs in and chooses “User Permissions” to add her new marketing analyst.
2. Add or locate a user — To bring a new teammate on board, Jane enters the colleague’s name and email, checks the box to add them to the global account, and submits the form; to modify an existing user, she clicks the Edit icon next to that person’s name. Example: She types “[email protected]” and clicks “Add.”
3. Set the Subscribe & Save level — In the Global Permissions area, Jane scrolls to the Subscribe & Save section and selects one of three radio buttons: None (hides the feature), View Only (permits data viewing), or View and Edit (allows full control).
