Every Amazon integration starts here. This short recording covers the whole authorisation path: opening the accounts screen in Salestio, being handed to Amazon Seller Central to approve access, and returning to find the account connected.

Watch it before you begin, because the approval happens inside Seller Central rather than inside Salestio. Merchants who abandon the flow halfway end up with an account that looks connected but has no permissions.

What you will learn

  • Where account setup lives in the Salestio interface.
  • What Amazon asks you to approve and why those permissions are needed.
  • How to confirm the authorisation completed.
  • How to select the regional marketplaces you want to sell in.

Steps shown in the video

  1. Open the accounts section of Salestio and choose to add a new Amazon account.
  2. Select the Amazon region and marketplace you sell in.
  3. Sign in to Amazon Seller Central and approve the access request.
  4. Return to Salestio and confirm the account shows as connected.
  5. Choose which marketplaces on that account you want to manage.

Questions about this workflow

Access to product listings, inventory, pricing and orders. Amazon grants these through the authorisation screen shown in the video. Without them, Salestio cannot update listings or import orders.
Usually an incomplete authorisation, or an Individual rather than Professional selling plan. Re-run the authorisation from the start and finish on the Amazon side before closing the tab.
