How FBA Orders From Outside Marketplaces Translate Into Amazon Shipping Methods

Overview

Amazon uses only three different Shipping Methods on their orders: Standard, Expedited, and Priority. Standard is the slowest service, Expedited is a two to three day option, and Priority is next day delivery.

When you list an FBA item for sale on a marketplace other than Amazon, you have the flexibility of offering your buyers any shipping options you want. Orders for FBA items that import into Solid Commerce with a Shipping Method other than Standard, Expedited, or Priority are converted from the original Shipping Method to one of the three Amazon options. The three charts below show how Solid Commerce maps each Shipping Method when we submit your order to Amazon for fulfillment.
