DD+7 March 12, 2026
by Seller_ir2sdQjTkfjTh
Amazon replied

I received this today from Amazon:

On March 12, 2026, in line with your feedback, we’ll update your reserve settings to the standard reserve period of seven days after delivery date (DD+7).

Most Amazon sellers worldwide already use DD+7. Moving your reserve setting to DD+7 provides time for you to accrue fees and other costs before disbursement and gives your customers time to receive, open, and evaluate their order.

DD+7 aligns the customer order and payment cycle, with funds made available for disbursement seven days after we confirm order delivery. For example, if you sell a product on January 1 and it’s delivered on January 3, then under the DD+7 policy, your funds for that order will become available for disbursement on January 11.

When you ship an order, funds are collected and added to your deferred transaction amount. Upon delivery, funds become reserves to allow Amazon customers to receive and review orders and you to accrue fees and costs. After seven days, the funds are moved into your account balance, which can be disbursed automatically through your choice of the automatic settlement cycle or a once daily disburse-on-demand request.

The move to DD+7 may cause a one-time cash flow impact and temporarily limit your ability to disburse funds on or around your migration date. This is because of the change to delivery confirmation before the reserve period begins.

We recommend that you review your cash reserves to ensure sufficient funds on hand during the transition. This update will affect you more if you have longer periods between order and shipping or shipping and delivery.

__________________________

So we now use Amazon shipping, Amazon extends 30 day invoicing whether we want it or not, we ship using Amazon shipping, we stand in line every day and have every package scanned individually, and we still won't be paid until 7 days after the package is delivered?

We're now responsible for USPS and UPS delays?

What if the item is marked shipped but the post office forgets to scan it upon delivery and it still appears to be in transit even though it was delivered (and the customer does not open a case)??? So do we now have to worry that we won't get paid if the post office forgets to scan it upon delivery??? We should get the money 7 days AFTER it is first scanned as already in transit!

🛠️You Asked, We Listened! - Brand Registry Enrollment Improvements
by Seller_PIHyltK09pbl3
Amazon replied

We're excited to share several major improvements to the Brand Registry enrollment process that directly address the challenges you've reported through Seller Forums. These updates will help you protect your brand and start selling faster.

1. Application Status Management: We've improved how we handle Brand Registry applications that remain 'under review' status indefinitely. Previously, some applications got stuck in this status when selling partners either closed their BR applications or missed verification code deadlines. This prevented them from submitting new Brand Registry applications. We've streamlined this process so selling partners can reapply if needed and reduce unnecessary wait times.

2. Verification Status Issues: We fixed a technical issue causing some brand applications to be incorrectly paused during the seller verification process. Some selling partners experienced delays of several weeks due to this issue, which has now been resolved.

3. Application Review Timeline Updates: We've clarified our processing timelines for brand applications that need further review. Previously, there was confusion about whether the comprehensive review period was 30 or 45 days. We've now standardized our communication to clearly state a 30-day review period.

4. Business Verification Process: For selling partners experiencing challenges with business verification, it was unclear what to expect and when you can reapply if your first appeal is unsuccessful. We've improved our communication to be more transparent about your options, and included information about when you can reapply.

If you're currently in the Brand Registry enrollment process, these improvements are already in effect for your application. If you've been waiting to enroll, there's never been a better time to protect your brand!

We're Committed to Your Success: Your brand protection is our priority, and we're constantly working to make Brand Registry more efficient and user-friendly. These improvements are just the first step in our ongoing commitment to enhance your selling experience.

Have more suggestions? Please share them in the comments below and vote 👍 if you agree with other seller comments.

Thank you for your interest in Brand Registry!

Can EVERYONE who has recently lost BRAND (WAIVER OR REGISTRY) BENEFITS post HERE
by Seller_gwzuNYC3ogYNo
in group

It appears this has been happening over the course of the last month and old posts are not receiving a response.

Maybe we will garner more attention than 6 or 7 separate posts. Post what you are seeing, case numbers, contact info, solutions?

New FBA Restock Page missing critical information!!
by Seller_IgvT0Ppq2y8mk
Amazon replied

The new FBA restock page will only show "Total Days of Supply" for the items Amazon recommends that I send in. Very often, these estimates are wrong, and by sorting my full inventory by this stat, I can see many items that Amazon estimates I have 60ish days left of inventory, but recent sales indicate I need to send more NOW to avoid a lapse of being out of stock between restock shipments.

Now that I am missing this information from ASIN that Amazon is not yet recommending I send in, I just know I am going to miss a bunch and get caught short. Often by the time Amazon notices I need to send more items in, I need to send them in THAT DAY to get them restocked in time before we run out.

I don't know why in the world the old FBA Restock page was changed. The new one lacks critical information and the layout is completely convoluted. I just need to know what is getting low so I can make my planning. This new page is a disaster for FBA inventory planning, especially right now when it is critical to get items in so they are ready for Christmas.

Opt-Out? Your account will be migrated to DD+7 on March 12
by Seller_9yQUzZAP34cYw
Amazon replied

I did not ask for this. I did not agree to this. I want to be opted out.

Amazon do not pretend that any of asked for this. You are merely wanting to hold our money for an additional 7-14 so you steal more of it. It's obvious you want to collect the interest for the additional 7-14 of hold our money. If you want to hold our money, you need to start paying us interest on it. This will just be used as another way for Amazon to allow buyers to steal from us. Amazon you need to start paying your own bills around here. Stop leaching off 3rd Party Sellers. You lost your lawsuit and were forced to pay $2,500,000,000 to the customers you scammed. Except now, you are making your 3rd Party Sellers pay for your mistakes.

I do not authorize you to hold my money longer.

Blatant patent infringement
by Seller_en0bSCASnotee
Amazon replied

We have a product with several patents attached to it. One is a utility patent which prevents others from producing a product using a certain material. We also have two design patents that cover the way the product is designed. There is a seller on Amazon that is infringing on our patents but every time we submit a case log, it immediately responds with a computer generated email denying the claim. We tried escalating the case but again, receive the same AI or computer generated rejection. How do we actually get a human to look at the violation? The knockoff, copy cat product, is clearly violating our patents and we would like the protection we are supposed to receive from Brand Registry. But, we cannot access a live person to look at this. How do we resolve this problem?
