How does Multi-Channel Fulfilment work?
Send all or some of your inventory directly to an Amazon fulfilment centre. When customers purchase products on your website or another third-party sales channel, we receive your orders and pick, pack, and ship them directly to your customers.
MCF is available with Fulfilment by Amazon (FBA). If you do use FBA to sell on Amazon, your existing inventory can serve both Amazon customers and customers from your other sales channels.

Getting started

Step 1
Quick order creation
This feature allows you to create fulfilment orders one at a time via an easy-to-use tool within Seller Central.

- From top navigation of Seller Central, select the "Inventory" drop-down
- Select the product(s) you want to create a fulfilment order for

Both options above will bring you to the MCF order creation page. There, you will just need to provide your customer’s delivery address, items to fulfil, and a delivery speed selection in order to quickly place an order.
