Tired of juggling two separate Amazon accounts? The good news is that you can merge your Amazon seller accounts. Well, what about the regular Amazon accounts, then?
Although not directly, you can still kind of bring together your regular Amazon account under one roof with an Amazon Household account, you can reap the same benefits if you could somehow merge them directly.
Later on in the article, we will also take a look at the policies around merging two seller accounts and the fees associated with the process. Let’s get started.
Can I Combine Amazon Accounts?
You can combine (merge) your Amazon Seller Central accounts even if they target different markets. However, it is best to consult Amazon’s customer service representatives first before doing so to ensure your account’s safety.
Amazon does not allow the merging of personal accounts for security reasons and to maintain clear personal histories.
However, you can use a dedicated service called Amazon Household that links your Amazon accounts in one place (more on that below).
How To Merge Amazon Accounts?
Amazon Households is how you can merge two regular Amazon accounts. An Amazon Household plan can accommodate up to six family members. (two adults, four teens, and up to four children).
