    Amazon’s Fall Prime promotion ends as sellers change strategy amid the $100 registration fee and pressure on profits

    Amazon’s Fall Prime promotion has ended. Sellers said sales growth fell short of expectations: sales were generally only 1.5 to 2 times higher, while top listings reached 3 to 4 times their usual levels. However, discounts, advertising and platform fees eroded profits. Sellers had to pay a $100 registration fee to submit a member discount for the fall promotion, and the fee was still due even if the event did not increase orders. This discouraged many small and midsize sellers, and many offered only basic member discounts or coupons. Sellers shifted their focus to protecting profits, proactively limiting inventory, and lowering their expectations for the upcoming Black Friday.

    Amazon’s Fall Prime Event Wraps Up: Seller Results Diverge and Delayed Order Data Cause Unease

    Amazon’s 2026 Fall Prime member event has ended. During the 48-hour promotion, which covered 22 countries, about 40% of sellers saw sales rise on the first day, but major sales surges were uncommon and advertising and discount costs rose at the same time. Around 10 a.m. Beijing time on October 8, some sellers’ dashboards showed delayed order data. The platform said that customer-facing transactions and the data shown in seller dashboards are not fully synchronized. Consumers increasingly comparison-shopped as usual, and lower-priced categories such as household goods, beauty and personal care, and clothing performed relatively well.
