How long does it take for Amazon to remind me? What are the effects?

On the Amazon platform, when you open a store, if you accidentally link it with other stores, or if two accounts use the same IP and are linked, it will have an impact. How long will Amazon remind you of the link?

1. How long does it take for Amazon to remind you?

Generally, Amazon will send you an email as soon as you register. If you haven't found it in a month, there is no guarantee. It is better to use a different network computer for safety.

Once Amazon discovers that several accounts are engaged in fan operations, it will link these accounts together. However, from the actual perspective of the association issue, Amazon does not necessarily notify the seller immediately.

Specifically, in actual seller operation examples, we can see that some sellers received association emails from Amazon shortly after registering a new account, and their account sales privileges were revoked. However, some sellers also shared that their accounts were blocked a month ago, and after checking the reasons for the blocking, they found that their accounts had association issues 5 months ago.

Therefore, we cannot give an accurate answer to the question of how long Amazon will remind you of the association. This is because Amazon may not check the account and may not notify the seller of the account association issue in the first place.

2. What are the consequences of Amazon association?

1. Amazon does not allow sellers to operate multiple stores on the same site. Therefore, if Amazon finds that you have multiple stores on the same site, it will notify the seller and let him choose one store to keep, while the other stores will be closed and suspended.

2. Amazon clearly stipulates that if you associate with a blocked account, the associated account will also be blocked. This consequence is very obvious, and this is also the main reason why Amazon blocks accounts due to association. Of course, this situation currently occurs more often on the same site. If it is on different sites, many sellers have found that it generally does not have an impact.

3. If there is a connection between different sites, it will generally not affect the account, and Amazon will not punish these accounts.

Generally, you need to discover Amazon associations by yourself. There are relatively few reminders from the platform. Most of the time, your account will be directly blocked, or your store will be closed. Therefore, if you find any associations, you must resolve them in a timely manner to avoid having your store closed.
