Amazon has announced that you can now link your Royal Mail account with Amazon Buy Shipping to ensure that you can access your negotiated rates directly on Amazon Buy Shipping.

They have outlined how you can set this up in three easy steps.

“To link your Royal Mail account with Amazon Buy Shipping, follow these steps:

1. Go to “Buy Shipping preferences” (https://sellercentral.amazon.co.uk/sbr/buyShippingPreferences) and select Royal Mail as your preferred carrier.

2. Click “Manage your carrier accounts” and enter the following information as it appears on your Royal Mail invoice.
