Amazon Amazon integration

Granting access

Connecting is an OAuth handshake between your Seller Central account and MarketplaceHub. No password changes hands, nothing is shared with anyone else, and you can take the access back whenever you want.

What you need first

An Amazon Professional Seller account. Individual accounts don't include Selling Partner API access, so automated listing, inventory and order sync can't work on one — this is an Amazon restriction rather than ours.

You'll also need to be signed in to Seller Central for the marketplace you want to connect. If you sell in several countries, each is authorised separately and can be managed together afterwards.

Granting MarketplaceHub access to your Amazon account

How the connection is made

Three steps on Amazon's side, then you're back in MarketplaceHub.

1

Open our appstore listing

Find MarketplaceHub on the Selling Partner Appstore for your marketplace. We're a verified developer, so the listing is Amazon's own page, not a redirect somewhere else.

2

Approve the access

Amazon shows you what the app may do before you agree. Approving hands MarketplaceHub a token scoped to that seller account — your password is never involved.

3

Land back with us

Amazon returns you to MarketplaceHub, the marketplace appears in your dashboard, and its product-type and category data starts importing in the background.

What we ask for, and why

Each area of access maps to something you asked the platform to do.

Listings & catalogue

To create and revise your listings, and to read Amazon's product types and required attributes for the categories you sell in.

Inventory & pricing

To submit stock and price updates as your catalogue changes, and to read the featured-offer pricing that competitor repricing rules use.

Orders

To pull your FBM and FBA orders in, and to send shipment confirmations, tracking, refunds and cancellations back.

Reports & results

To collect the outcome of every submission, so a rejected listing comes back to you with Amazon's reason rather than disappearing.

Staying connected — and disconnecting

We tell you if it breaks

If Amazon starts refusing our calls — a revoked or expired authorisation, most often — the connection is flagged in your dashboard and you're notified, rather than syncs quietly failing.

Reconnecting

Re-authorising uses the same appstore flow and restores the existing connection. Your catalogue, mappings and history stay as they were.

Revoking

Withdraw access from Seller Central at any time, or pause the marketplace in MarketplaceHub if you only want syncing to stop for a while.

What happens in the first few minutes

Connecting isn't only a token exchange — a fair amount of setup runs on its own once the marketplace appears, so you're not asked to configure things the API can tell us.

Your categories are imported

Amazon's product types and their required attributes are pulled for the marketplace you connected. This is what later lets AI put a product in the right category and know which fields that category insists on.

The marketplace gets a card

It appears on your dashboard with its own state — connected, syncing, or needing attention — so several marketplaces never blur into a single "is it working?" question.

The next steps are laid out

From there it's bringing your catalogue in and mapping it — the Feeds stage — rather than hunting for what to do next.

If a connection stops working

The four causes that account for nearly all of it, and what each looks like.

Individual account

The authorisation completes but nothing syncs, because the API access a Professional account carries isn't there. Upgrading in Seller Central and reconnecting resolves it.

Wrong marketplace

Authorising from the appstore of a country you don't sell in connects an account with no listings. Check the flag on the marketplace card against where you actually sell.

Access withdrawn

Someone revoked the app in Seller Central. Calls start failing immediately, the connection is flagged, and re-authorising restores it without losing anything.

Authorisation expired

Amazon's grants don't last forever. The symptom is identical to a revocation and so is the fix — run the appstore flow again.

Questions about access

What the authorisation covers and what it doesn't.

Still wondering?

Our team replies within a few hours, Mon–Fri.

01 Do you ever see my Amazon password?
No. The appstore flow is an OAuth handshake: you sign in on Amazon, Amazon asks whether to grant the app access, and we receive a token. The password stays between you and Amazon, and the token can be revoked without changing it.
02 Can I connect more than one Amazon marketplace?
Yes. Authorise each marketplace you sell in — they're separate connections, managed from one dashboard. Listings, stock and orders stay scoped per marketplace, so a rule can target one country or all of them.
03 What happens if I revoke access?
Syncing stops and the connection is marked disconnected. Nothing already in MarketplaceHub is deleted, and re-authorising later picks up where you left off rather than starting a fresh import.
04 Why does my Individual seller account not work?
Amazon reserves Selling Partner API access for Professional seller accounts. Without it there's no programmatic way to publish listings, update stock or read orders, so the integration has nothing to connect to.
