Amazon Withholding Seller Money/Inventory
Amazon sellers often face withheld funds or frozen accounts, leaving them without access to their hard-earned revenue. Whether due to policy violations, account suspensions, or sudden holds, Amazon Sellers Lawyer helps sellers recover withheld funds and fight unfair account restrictions.
Why Does Amazon Withhold Seller Money?
Amazon may freeze or withhold funds for various reasons, including:
- Account Suspensions & Bans – If your account is suspended, Amazon may hold funds until the issue is resolved.
- Policy Violations – Violating Amazon’s terms of service, such as price gouging or counterfeit claims, can lead to withheld earnings.
- Chargebacks & Refunds – Excessive chargebacks or refund disputes may trigger a temporary hold on your payments.
- High Order Defect Rate (ODR) – A high ODR can lead to account reviews and withheld funds.
- Fraud Investigations – If Amazon suspects fraudulent activity, it may freeze funds while conducting an internal investigation.
- Account Verification Issues – Missing or incorrect verification documents can delay or block payouts.
Consequences of Amazon Withholding Seller Money
Cash Flow Disruptions – Inability to pay suppliers, employees, or operational expenses.
Inventory & Supply Chain Issues – Without funds, restocking inventory becomes difficult.
Business Instability – Long-term holds can severely impact your business’s sustainability.
Permanent Fund Loss – If Amazon permanently bans your account, retrieving your funds becomes significantly harder.
