Amazon FBA and Ungating

Anyone have any experience getting ungated in the Amazon restricted categories, such as Grocery?

If so, has anyone been able to do so in the last week or two? I heard they changed their policy to no longer include receipts, but are actually looking for product invoices and such...i'm trying to determine if this is true, or whether they are still accepting them.

    Yes as mentioned above ask Amazon for the details related to their latest policys. I expect thay can explain them better than anyone.

    I also believe that Cythia Stines blog may deal with this issue although you will probably have to search for it here - Online Sales Step By Step Start Your Online Home Based Business with Amazon.com — Helping you be successful selling on Amazon.com

  • Definitely check in with Amazon directly. Try asking in the Amazon forums as well. Maybe one of those sellers has some insight and can respond faster than an Amazon rep may be able to.

    Good luck,

    We recently got ungated for Beauty and Health & Personal Care...it took several weeks, but if youre running a legit operation and have all the proper documentation, you will be fine.

      My friend recently tried to apply for health and beauty. According to him, their being very strict right now. If you don't get approved, just wait a bit and try again. There are some periods where they are more likely to approve you than others.

    I have helped over 50 of my Private label supplement clients get approved on Amazon.

    So far I have a 100% record. If you just use legit invoices that follow their guidelines it really isn't too hard.

    I just got ungated in the grocery category this week. I simply followed the steps as Amazon gives them to you and it went fairly easy. I submitted three invoices for three orders of the same brand of product and submitted my application. The info from them said I would be modified within 24 hours but I heard nothing until about 5 days.
