Amazon is adding a new charge for third-party sellers who ship their own products instead of paying for the company's fulfillment services. Previously, there was no such fee for sellers. The e-commerce giant also charges sellers a referral fee between 8% and 15% on each sale. Regulators have examined whether Amazon pressures sellers into using its services in exchange for preferential treatment on the marketplace. In a blog post on Monday, the company argued sellers continue to flock to its sprawling marketplace "because it's a great value."

Amazon is reopening enrollment for a program it paused years ago. Seller Fulfilled Prime allows third-party sellers to ship Prime-eligible products directly, without using Amazon's warehouses. This may help Amazon expand Prime offerings without having to significantly expand warehouses. Amazon is reopening sign-ups for Seller Fulfilled Prime (SFP), a delivery program that allows third-party sellers to ship Prime-eligible products out of their own warehouses, after a roughly 4-year pause. In a note to sellers earlier this week, Amazon said new seller enrollment for SFP will begin later this year.
