It was “suppose” to be that everyone was to be transitioned. If you have a SAS manager, then your volume may be why you have not been transitioned as yet. However, several sellers who were to be transitioned on the 12th have also not been transitioned.
Are your current daily sales going into Deferred Transactions on the Payment page?
If your daily sales are not currently going into Deferred Transaction and you have not been transitioned as yet, then the daily disbusement wouldn’t be available to you currently.
In fact, everything Amazon was putting out was saying that every US seller was going to be transitioned. That is why that announcement with that wording Sellers who are subject puts everyone in a tail spin because is not the same as “every US seller” as previously stated.
The comparison made to the sloppy rollout of USPS Ground Advantage program and to the rollout of DD+7 is, at this point, a very vaild comparison.
Whereas you would like the Daily Disbursement, we want consistency with how the payments and charges are handled. And very importantly … know that we will be paid for orders we fulfill. We think that many sellers have the same trust issue with Amazon when it comes to that.
Currently, our Payment page shows we have no sales this period and the period ends in a couple of days (Sunday). We should have one or two sales clear DD+7 tomorrow, but we are not sure Amazon will release them. That type of uncertainty is what’s infuriating to us.
Unlike some other sellers have reported in various biz-discussion venues, we only received a single notification on 020626, specifying March 12th as the migration date, to each account - none of the multiple conflicting-date notifications reported in some quarters.
Amongst such reports include mentions of being migrated two weeks later than the apparently more-common date of March 5th, on March 19th (the first of these reports I’ve seen actually appeared before the 12th), so I was ½-expecting to see we’d been borged-in by today, March 20, but it hasn’t happened yet…
I am based in Canada, both platforms have been DD+7’d. For me, a bookkeeping nightmare. I have yet to figure it out, but my next regular disbursement date is on the 22nd, so I’m waiting to see if it makes any sense then. I can see a list of old orders sitting in “deferred” but one sale in the same time frame as the deferred ones was paid on my last disbursement date.
Maybe a weird question, but what letter does the last name tied to accounts end with who have and haven’t migrated? I swear if it’s as dumb as alphabetical, I’ll not be surprised. Mine ends w V… and again I haven’t been moved.
When you lived your childhood at the end of the lunch line you get suspicious of anything that smacks of aphabet-ism
Doubt that … we would be square in the middle. When it comes to beta stuff, we seem to always get picked first … so it didn’t surprise us that we were in the first group.
What we did find interesting was the second group not going as planned. Remember, the first group went during the AI fiasco that caused the shutdown for a half a day. They were changing the product detail page and DD+7 at the same time. Maybe they learned a lesson (right … who are we kidding?).
Since all available lights would seem to suggest that Amazon most-likely will NEVER be finished with messing up the Product Detail Pages - much less with the steadfastly-determined drive towards propping open profit-garnering loopholes allowing Bad Actors to do the same to each and sundry one of them in its Global Catalog - prithee let it be so.
I’m perfectly content to wait for an end of that current paradigm to happen before I’m ‘borged’ into Amazon’s latest underhanded wealth-scraping scheme - but I ain’t holding my breath in expectation that such a miraculous occurrence is looming.
Better for you (or for me, or for Amazon, for all of us, and even for the proverbial fence-post) that there nearly ALWAYS seems to be, year after year, quarter after quarter, month after month, week after week, day after day, hour after hour, minute after minute, second after second, a reason for Amazon to deploy a “…current foray…” into tinkering with this or that well-oiled mechanism?
FWIW, I’m experiencing both. I sell via FBA in Canada and FBA/FBM in the U.S. I received two emails from Amazon, one saying that I’d be migrated to DD+7 on March 5th and one saying March 12th. I couldn’t tell from the emails which email was for which country. For Canada, which runs about 10% the sales volume of the U.S., I was migrated on the 5th (now I know which email was which) and started seeing funds going into Account Level Reserve for the first time (one sale that beat the 3/5 cutoff did not go into ALR).
For my U.S. sales, 3/12 has come and gone and nothing has gone into ALR. Other than sales volume, my metrics between the two countries are very similar, so I’m thinking that maybe sales volume is the determining factor for who gets skipped/delayed and who doesn’t. The other possibility is a mix of FBA/FBM vs. straight FBA.
“L” here and still no transition. Although I have an ancient 15+ year-old account and am secretly hoping whatever wording in my initial sign-up protected me from 2 week payouts is also doing some heavy lifting in shielding me from this.
I’m B as well and haven’t been migrated. Not saying you’re wrong as I might somehow be immune.
My guess based on my interaction with seller support is they have some formula or metrics for who gets migrated and who doesn’t. Possibly based on your history of payouts, returns, FBA status and maybe loans?
For instance, an account constantly doing draws on their funds might red flag Amazon that your financial situation isn’t as solid as they would like and they want to make sure your returns and fees are covered. Same for taking out loans.
If you are FBA and have significant inventory in the FC’s, it’s basically collateral for returns and fees you might owe in the future.
I’m just speculating here. All I know is seller support told me that I’m not eligible for withdraws on demand because I didn’t meet some metrics that they wouldn’t explain. Looking at it from their perspective, my account balance is locked up until the next 14 day payout and I have significant inventory in FBA as well. Maybe it’s as simple as they are assigning DD+7 from a risk analysis point of view instead of outright greed?
We never get returns (custom items). We never (extremely rare) for us to do a refund. In 14 years or so, we have had maybe one credit card charge back (which we won). And as far as A2Z claims (INR), we have had 8 in 14 or so years with the last one being over 3 years ago. Never had a loan from Amazon. Never missed or had an isssue with any type of payment to Amazon (ads and / or professional fee).
We doubt that risk is a factor for this move. Anyone with those type of issues would probably have been moved to DD+7 way before this mass move just like Amazon was auto-enrolling sellers into AHT that were above 2 days Handle Time Gap.
Do the easy ones. See what problems and / or complaints arise from the easy ones, make the needed adjustments, and then implement the remainder.
Greetings, and thank you for raising your questions here on the forums.
We are migrating sellers to DD+7 throughout March 2026. Your specific migration date depends on your account configuration.
Here’s how to determine your status:
If you have migrated to DD+7:
You will see a “Disburse Now” button on your Payments dashboard
New orders appear in Deferred Orders after shipping, showing the expected release date for each order
Amounts temporarily move to account reserve, then return to Standard Orders as your Beginning Balance
To track reserves: Check Deferred Orders > Total Balance to see what is in reserve and when funds will be released based on delivery date
If you have NOT yet migrated:
Your payment schedule remains unchanged until your migration date
You will not see the “Disburse Now” button or Deferred Orders section
Your migration will occur by the end of March 2026
For account specific questions, we encourage you to contact Seller Support. If you have already done so, please feel free to share your case ID with our team here and will be happy to dig into this further. Thanks again!
