Amazon Self-Ship Integration with Eshopbox

Amazon Self-Ship Integration with Eshopbox

Amazon offers multiple fulfilment models for sellers based on their operational requirements and business setup. The three fulfilment models supported by Amazon are:

  • Amazon FBA
  • Easy Ship
  • Self Ship

This article specifically covers the Amazon Self Ship integration with Eshopbox.

In the Self Ship Integration:

  • Inventory is managed by the seller
  • Order shipping and courier allocation are managed through Eshopbox

This integration helps sellers process Amazon Self Ship orders through Eshopbox for shipping operations. If the seller wants Eshopbox to manage inventory and shipping both, you refer this Help article - Configure Amazon with Eshopbox

Make sure the following prerequisites are completed before configuring the integration:

  • You have an active Amazon Seller Central account
  • You have an active Eshopbox workspace
  • You have a Self Fulfilment location configured in Eshopbox

Steps to Set Up Amazon Self Ship Integration with Eshopbox

Step 1.2 - From the top navigation bar, go to Apps.

Step 1.3 - Search for and open the Amazon Self Ship app.


Step 2: Connect Your Amazon Seller Account

In this step, you will authorize Eshopbox to access your Amazon Seller Central account.

This authorization allows Eshopbox to:

  • Access Amazon Self Ship orders
  • Sync cancellations and returns
  • Process shipping operations

Follow these steps:

Step 2.1 - Click on the Connect button inside the Amazon Self Ship app.

Step 2.2 - You will be redirected to the Amazon Seller Central login page. Enter your Amazon Seller Central credentials.


Step 2.3 - Review and accept the required permissions and authorize Eshopbox.


Step 2.4 - Once authorization is completed, you will be redirected back to Eshopbox and the connection setup will be marked as successful.


Step 3: Configure Your Fulfilment Locations

You need to configure your fulfilment locations so that Eshopbox can correctly allocate shipping for Amazon Self Ship orders.

Before proceeding, ensure that a Self Fulfilment location is already created in Eshopbox.

If you have not created one yet, refer to: How to add location?

Follow these steps:

Step 3.1 - Navigate to the My Locations tab inside the Amazon Self Ship app.


Enable your Self Fulfilment location.
