1. Advantages and Disadvantages of Amazon Joint Account

Advantages of Amazon Associate Account:

A joint account optimizes your overall selling experience in Amazon's international stores, making it easier for you to manage and grow your business. In addition to providing a single sign-on, you can centrally view sales information, orders, and buyer messages for all countries where you do business. You can also use tools that were previously limited to a single country and enjoy discounted international selling plans.

Disadvantages of Amazon Associate Account:

If multiple Amazon accounts are linked and one of them has a problem, it will affect other linked accounts. Avoiding association can reduce the risk.

If they are associated with the same site, and Amazon finds that your products are cross-sold and sell the same products, Amazon will require you to forcibly delete one of the accounts and all listings. If you do not delete them, Amazon may close both of your accounts.

2. What should I do if my Amazon account is linked?

Amazon account registration has different sites, but each site belongs to the same Amazon system, so account association is also divided into two categories: same-site association and different-site association.

1. If the newly registered account is associated with the previous old account, you can choose to close one of the accounts;

2. If the accounts on the same site are linked and the products they sell are the same, the entire listing of the newly created account will generally be removed from the shelves;

3. Account association on the same site: if the products sold are different and the accounts perform well, then all of them may continue to be used;

4. Regardless of which site it is, if it is associated with an account that has been closed due to violation, then this account will definitely be closed now, but the closing time is uncertain.

In summary, Amazon joint accounts are risky. The risk is that if one of the accounts has a problem, it will affect the other linked accounts.
