Merchant ID is a unique number assigned by Amazon that uniquely identifies you as a merchant in their system. This is used for both authentication purposes and payment processing.
KMS stands for Key Management Service - an encryption system developed by Amazon that allows users to manage private keys used in encryption.
In this article, you will learn how to retrieve Merchant ID and KMS Key from Amazon.
Seller Registration
The following steps must be performed to allow Eshopbox to invoke Amazon Smartconnect Yojaka APIs on your behalf.
Register as a seller on Amazon - If you wish to use the Eshopbox services to integrate with Amazon Smartconnect Yojaka, you must first register on the Amazon platform if you are not already registered as a seller.
Register as a seller on Amazon Yojaka - An Amazon seller who wishes to use the Amazon Yojaka product through Eshopbox must also register with Amazon Yojaka. The Amazon Yojaka programme team handles this registration in our current release.
Reach out to the Amazon Yojaka programme team at smartconnect-support@amazon.com and provide them with the following information to register you as a seller with Amazon Yojaka:
Your(seller) primary account’s email address

Post-Registration

The Amazon Yojaka merchant ID for the seller
The ARN of an AWS Key Management Service (KMS) customer-managed key that will be used to encrypt/decrypt any sensitive and confidential information specific to the seller.
You need to provide both of the above values to us so that Eshopbox can integrate with the Amazon Yojaka APIs appropriately.
