You'd never guess that the cost of setting up an Amazon store is much more complicated than you think! Many Taiwanese cross-border sellers have just fallen into this step. Today we will analyze those hidden costs.
In the United States station professional seller account, for example, the preliminary preparation costs include: specialized computer equipment, company registration (Taiwan company about $250, U.S. companies about $750), tax code agency. More importantly, the subsequent operation cost is the real big head! The monthly platform rental fee of $39.99 is just a basic expense, and there are those unexpected sales commissions - a minimum of 6% and a maximum of up to 50%!
Many e-commerce entrepreneurs focus on superficial costs, but overlook hidden costs such as refund management fees and multiple item fees. It's these overlooked details that can really hinder your success.
It's important to note that Amazon offers two types of selling programs: professional selling programs and personal selling programs. Here's a common misconception: "professional" does not equate to corporate status, nor does "personal" equate to individual status, and any entity can choose between these two programs.
North America, Europe and Japan also have different fee structures, which is something that many new sellers tend to overlook. If you want to win on Amazon, you need to know these fee structures well in order to really plan your costs.
