Amazon partnered freight: SPD, LTL and FTL

PrepVia books the freight of your FBA shipments on Amazon's partnered carrier program whenever Amazon offers it for the shipment, at Amazon's negotiated rates and billed to your seller account. It creates the shipment through its own SP-API integration, chooses the placement option and produces the BOL.

Questions about the Amazon partnered carrier program

Who pays the partnered freight?

The freight is bought on Amazon's partnered program, at Amazon's negotiated rates, and billed to your seller account.

Is partnered freight available on every shipment?

Amazon offers its partnered carriers per placement option. When the option for your shipment has none, the shipment goes with a non-partnered carrier.

What if a carton is lost on the way?

Under Amazon's terms you stay the shipper of record, and a carton lost on the way is claimed under the FBA reimbursement policy for shipments to Amazon.
