Amazon Solution Provider Portal Agreement  

Version: November 2025

Welcome to Solution Provider Portal (the “Portal”), a dedicated gateway for third party Developers and Service Providers (the “Solution Provider”) to onboard and manage their offerings to Amazon sellers and vendors (“Amazon Partners”). 

THIS SOLUTION PROVIDER PORTAL AGREEMENT, INCLUDING THE SERVICE PROVIDER TERMS AND API DEVELOPER TERMS (THE "AGREEMENT") CONTAINS THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS THAT GOVERN YOUR ACCESS AND USE OF THE PORTAL. BY REGISTERING FOR OR USING THE PORTAL, YOU (ON BEHALF OF YOURSELF OR THE BUSINESS YOU REPRESENT) AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING ANY POLICIES OR SERVICE TERMS THAT APPLY FOR EACH COUNTRY (IN EACH CASE, THE "ELECTED COUNTRY") FOR WHICH YOU USE OR OFFER A SOLUTION.

This Agreement is a binding agreement between Amazon and you or the entity you represent (“you”). “Amazon,” “we,” “us,” or “our” means the applicable Amazon Contracting Party and any of its applicable Affiliates.  Capitalized terms have the meanings listed in Appendix 1 (Definitions) below. This Agreement takes effect when you click an “I Accept” or similar button (the “Effective Date”) or by continued use of the Portal after being presented with this Agreement.  If there is any conflict between the terms and conditions of the Policies and the body of this Agreement, the body of this Agreement will control. To the extent that any of the terms in this Agreement conflict with, as applicable, any other terms related specifically to your use of the Portal or offering of Solution(s) provided under this Agreement, which may include the Policies and the Amazon Services Business Solutions Agreement (each individually the “Underlying Agreement”), this Agreement will control.

1. Registration and Use. In order to use the Portal, you must complete the registration process, during which you agree to: (a) provide true, accurate, current, and complete information about yourself and your entity/organization as prompted by the registration form (“Registration Data”), and (b) maintain and promptly update any information including the Registration Data to keep it true, accurate, current and complete. You authorize us (and will provide us documentation evidencing your authorization upon our request) to verify your information (including any updated information) directly or through third parties to the extent allowed by applicable law. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of, and accept responsibility for all activities relating to, your Portal account and credentials. You will inform us immediately if you believe your account or credentials are lost, stolen, or compromised. Any personal data you provide to us will be handled in accordance with  Amazon’s Privacy Notice for your Elected Countries. This provision survives termination of the Agreement and is subject to Section 4.      

1.1 Solution Provider Access and Use.  Prior to an Amazon Partner adding you as a Solution Provider, or to continue operating as a Solution Provider, you must: (a) successfully complete any required verification and data access assessments, (b) comply with Amazon Policies at all times and (c) meet minimum industry data protection standards and practices.

1.2 Employee/Agent Data Disclosure Requirement. If your Solution(s) permits your employee, agents or contractors to process or access data, you must clearly disclose this in your Solution’s description and privacy policy. You must add these employees, agents and/or contractors as users in “user permissions” in the Portal, and these employees, agents and/or contractors must register and successfully complete verification. You are responsible for the actions and behaviors of your employees, agents and contractors. Your employees, agents and contractors are also subject to ongoing compliance with our terms. 

Solution Providers are responsible for ensuring this disclosure is accurate and complete in accordance with Amazon Policies. Solution Providers must clearly indicate that they are separate entities from Amazon Partners and have their own permissions. 

1.3 Use of Agents. If you deploy, enable, or authorize an Agent to access or interact with any Amazon Services, the following restrictions apply:

a. Identification and Compliance Requirements. All Agents must clearly identify themselves as automated systems and always comply with the requirements in Section 1.3 (c) when accessing Amazon Services. Agents are prohibited from accessing Amazon Services if Amazon has explicitly requested cessation of such access.

b. Access Limitations. Amazon reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to limit or restrict Agent access to Amazon Services through technical or other measures.

c. Technical Compliance Standards. As per the Agent Policy, all Agents must:

(i) Request Identification: Include "Agent/[agent name]" in the user agent string of all HTTP/HTTPS requests (example: "Agent/AmazonAgent"), 

(ii) Transparent Operation: Maintain clear identification as automated systems and must not: Simulate human behavior patterns (keystrokes, navigation speed, interaction timing); complete or bypass CAPTCHAs or human verification systems; obscure their automated nature through any technical means,

(iii) Truthful Disclosure: Respond accurately to any prompts or questions designed to distinguish between human and automated interactions, and 

(iv) Access Control Compliance: Refrain from circumventing any technical measures designed to block, limit, or control Agent access to Amazon Services 

2. Fees and Account Authorization. You agree to pay all fees as shown and described in your Portal account to receive and continue using the Amazon Services. You are responsible for all of your expenses in connection with this Agreement. To use the Portal, you must provide us with valid credit card information from a credit card or credit cards acceptable by Amazon ("Your Credit Card") as well as valid bank account information for a bank account or bank accounts acceptable by Amazon ("Your Bank Account"). You will use only a name you are authorized to use in connection with your use of the Portal and will update all the information you provide to us as necessary to ensure that it always remains accurate, complete, and valid.

You authorize us (and will provide us documentation evidencing your authorization upon our request) to verify your information (including any updated information) and to charge Your Credit Card or debit Your Bank Account for any sums payable by you to us (in reimbursement or otherwise). Any refunds, reimbursements, or credit adjustments (the “Account Credits”) to you will be remitted to Your Bank Account through a banking network or by other means specified by us. Except as provided otherwise, all amounts contemplated in this Agreement will be expressed and displayed in United States Dollars (USD), and all Account Credits contemplated by this Agreement will be made in USD.

If we reasonably determine that your actions or performance may result in chargebacks, claims, disputes, violations of our terms or policies, violations of law or other risks to Amazon or third parties, or if we determine that your account—or any other account you have operated—has been used to engage in deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or your use of the Portal or Services has harmed, or our controls identify that it might harm other Amazon Partners or Amazon’s legitimate interests, then we may withhold any Account Credits to you for as long as we determine any related risks to Amazon or third parties persist. 

For any amounts that we determine you owe us, we may (a) charge Your Credit Card or any other payment instrument you provide to us; (b) offset any payments that are payable by you to us (in reimbursement or otherwise) against any Account Credits we may make to you or amounts we may owe you; (c) invoice you for amounts due to us, in which case you will pay the invoiced amounts upon receipt; (d) reverse any credits to Your Bank Account; or (e) collect payment or reimbursement from you by any other lawful means. 

3. Ratings and Feedback 

3.1 Ratings. We may implement mechanisms that rate, or allow other parties to rate and provide feedback about your Solution (including information about a Solution that has been removed from the Amazon Selling Partner Appstore or Service Provider Network Site), you, and your performance in connection with your Solution. We may make these ratings and feedback publicly available. We have the right to remove reviews that are designed to mislead or manipulate Amazon Partners or are otherwise fraudulent.

3.2 Your Feedback. We will own and be free to use in any manner and without restriction to the extent necessary and authorized by law, any suggestions, comments, ideas, improvements or other feedback or Materials you provide us with respect to the Portal, Services or products offered by us. If you suggest to us improvements to the Portal or Corresponding Systems (collectively, “Suggestions”), you will, to the extent necessary and authorized by law, irrevocably grant to us, a royalty-free and worldwide license on all right, title, and interest in and to the Suggestions for the duration of protection of the underlying rights.

4. Term and Termination 

4.1 Term. The term of this Agreement (“Agreement Term”) will commence on the Effective Date and remain in effect until terminated by you or us in accordance with this section. 

4.2 Termination. 

By You. You may terminate this Agreement at any time for any reason by providing us written notice by submitting a support case through the Portal. 

By Us. We may terminate or suspend your use of the Portal and any Solution or terminate this Agreement for convenience with 30 days’ advance notice. We may also suspend or terminate your use of the Portal or any Solution and this Agreement immediately if we determine that (a) you have materially breached the Agreement and failed to cure within 7 days of a cure notice unless your breach exposes us to liability towards a third party, in which case we are entitled to reduce, or waive, the aforementioned cure period at our reasonable discretion; (b) your account has been, or our controls identify that it may be used for deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity; (c) your use of the Portal or provision of a Solution through the Portal has harmed or our controls identify that it might harm third parties, such as (without limitation) customers, Amazon Partners, shippers, or Amazon’s legitimate interest; (d) regulations in the Elected Country require us to do so, (e) you fail to comply with any identification verification ("IDV"), permission vetting, data handling or data processing requirements; (f) if we are required to do so by law. 

4.3. Notice of Termination. We will promptly notify you of any such termination or suspension via email or similar means, indicating the reason and any options to appeal, except where we have reason to believe that providing this information will hinder the investigation or prevention of deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or will enable you to circumvent our safeguards. Upon any suspension or termination, you will immediately cease use of the Portal, Solution and the Amazon SPN badge. For the avoidance of doubt, a court order will not be required to give effect to any termination of this Agreement. Upon any termination, you will also immediately destroy all API Materials if applicable. 

4.4 Effect of Termination. Upon termination of this Agreement, all rights and obligations of the parties under this Agreement will be extinguished unless otherwise explicitly stated, except that Sections 3 (Ratings and Feedback), 4 (Term and Termination), 5 (Our Role), 6 (License to Our Materials and Services),7 (Modifications To This Agreement), 8 (Notice), 9 (Representations), 10 (Indemnification), 11 (Governing Law and Disputes), 12.2 (Public Statement), 13 (Other Terms), 15 (Acknowledgement), Appendix 1 (Definitions) survive termination.

5. Our Role. You are the Solution Provider of record for any Solution(s) that you list on the Portal, Amazon Selling Partner Appstore (“SPA”), or Service Provider Network Site. You are solely responsible for any information that you display on the Portal and the accuracy, lawfulness and veracity of that information.  We do not curate the content you and other users upload to the Portal.  Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, we are not involved in any underlying transaction between you and any Amazon Partner, and we are not responsible for any dispute between you and any Amazon Partner or any liability which may be owed by any Amazon Partners to you or by you but we may elect to assist in the resolution of any dispute between you and any Amazon Partner. If we elect to assist in the resolution of a dispute, you agree to cooperate with us to resolve the dispute. Accordingly, the contract formed for any Solution that you list on the Portal is solely between you and the Amazon Partner; subject to Section 15 of this Agreement; we are not party to that contract nor do we assume any responsibility arising out of or in connection with it, nor are we the Amazon Partner’s agent.

6. License to Our Materials and Services. You may not use, reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, visit, or otherwise exploit Our Materials or any Solutions for any purpose not contemplated by this Agreement or other related Amazon service terms without express written consent of Amazon. You will not, and will not allow any third party to, use any of Our Materials or Solutions to directly or indirectly develop or improve large language or multimodal models, machine learning models or related technology. You will not and will not allow any third party to use data mining, robots, or similar data gathering and extraction tools to collect or use any of Our Materials or otherwise make any derivative use of any Solution or its contents. You may not reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble, tamper with, apply any other process or procedure to derive the source code or other underlying components (such as a model, model parameters, or model weights), or bypass any security associated with Our Materials, whether in whole or in part.

7. Modifications 

7.1 To This Agreement. We may modify these terms from time to time. We will provide at least 15 days’ advance notice in accordance with Section 8. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we may change or modify the Agreement at any time with immediate effect (a) for legal, regulatory, fraud and abuse prevention, or security reasons; (b) to change existing features or add additional features to the Portal (where this does not materially adversely affect your use); (c) to comply with local regulation; or (d) to restrict products or activities that we deem unsafe, inappropriate, or offensive. Any such change will be effective upon written notice to you, and your continued use of the Portal after we post any change will constitute your acceptance of such a change. If any change is unacceptable to you, you agree to cease use of the Portal and to end the Agreement as described in Section 4.

7.2 To the Portal. We may change, deprecate, or discontinue the Portal including changing or removing features or functionality of the Portal at any time. Where we make a materially adverse change to the Portal, as reasonably determined by us, Amazon will provide advance notice to you in accordance with Section 8 of this Agreement. Your continued use of the Portal after the effective date of any change will constitute your acceptance of that change. If any change is unacceptable to you, you agree not to use the Portal and to terminate the Agreement as described in Section 4. 

Your access to the Portal may be suspended or restricted without notice in accordance with this Agreement, including for legal, regulatory, fraud and abuse prevention or security reasons, and as reasonably necessary for our business operations including to allow for repairs, maintenance or the introduction of new features or services.

10. Indemnification 

10.1 General. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and subject to Section 15 of this Agreement, you will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless us, our Affiliates, and each of our and their respective employees, agents, officers, directors, and representatives from and against any third-party claims, damages, losses, settlements, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including without limitation attorneys’ fees) (each, a “Claim”) arising out of or relating to: (a) your use of the Portal (including any materials you upload, transfer or otherwise make available to or through the Portal or claims you make about your use of the Portal); (b) your violation of any term or condition of this Agreement or non-compliance with applicable Laws; (c) Your Solution, Materials or the combination of Your Materials with other Applications, Services, Content, or processes, including any claim involving alleged infringement or misappropriation of third party rights or the use, development, design, production, advertising, or marketing of Your Materials; (d) Your Taxes and duties or the collection, payment, or failure to collect or pay Your Taxes or duties, or the failure to meet tax registration obligations or duties; (e) your or your employees’, personnel’s or agents’ negligence or willful misconduct; (f) actual or alleged breach of any representations you have made; or (g) any dispute between you and any Amazon Partner or Authorized User. If we or any of our Affiliates are obligated to respond to a third-party subpoena or other compulsory legal order or process in connection with your use of the Portal, you will also reimburse us for reasonable attorneys’ fees, as well as our or their employees’ and contractors’ time and materials spent responding to the third-party subpoena or other compulsory legal order or process at our then-current hourly rates. NOTHING IN THIS SECTION 10.1 IS INTENDED TO EXCLUDE, RESTRICT OR MODIFY ANY RIGHTS, REMEDIES OR LIABILITIES THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE UNDER APPLICABLE LAWS.

10.2 Notification. We will promptly notify you of any claim subject to indemnification, but our failure to promptly notify you will only affect your indemnification obligations to the extent that our failure prejudices your ability to defend the claim. At our option, you will: (a) defend against any claim with counsel of your own choosing (subject to our written consent, which may not be unreasonably withheld); or (b) settle the claim as you deem appropriate, provided that you obtain our prior written consent before entering into any settlement, which may not be unreasonably withheld. We may also assume control of the defense and settlement of the claim at any time at our own expense.

11. Governing Law and Disputes. The governing law applicable to this Agreement will be the laws of the State of Washington, United States together with the Federal Arbitration Act and other applicable federal law. Amazon and you both consent that any dispute with Amazon or its Affiliates or claim relating in any way to this Agreement or your use of the Services will be resolved by binding arbitration as described in this paragraph, rather than in court, except that (i) either party may elect to proceed in a small claims court that is a Governing Court if your claims qualify; and (ii) you or we may bring suit in the Governing Courts, submitting to the jurisdiction of the Governing Courts and waiving our respective rights to any other jurisdiction, to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights. There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. However, an arbitrator can award the same damages and relief as a court (including injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages) and must follow the terms of this Agreement as a court would. Before you may begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a letter notifying us of your intent to pursue arbitration and describing your claim to our registered agent, CSC 300 Deschutes Way SW, Suite 208 MC-CSC1, Tumwater, WA 98501. The arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its commercial rules, including the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes. The expedited procedures of the AAA’s rules will apply only in cases seeking exclusively monetary relief under $50,000, and in such cases the hearing will be scheduled to take place within 90 days of the arbitrator’s appointment. For all cases, the AAA commercial fee schedule governs the payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees. We will reimburse those fees for claims totaling less than $10,000 unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous. Likewise, Amazon will not seek attorneys’ fees and costs from you in arbitration unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous. You may choose to have the arbitration conducted by telephone, based on written submissions, or in person at a mutually agreed location. The underlying award in the arbitration may be appealed pursuant to the AAA’s Optional Appellate Arbitration Rules. Amazon and you each agree that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration Amazon and you each waive any right to a jury trial.

If you are located in Australia, the following provisions of Section 11 will not apply to you: (i) the requirement that "any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action"; and (ii) the waiver of "any right to a jury trial”.

12. Confidential Information; Public Statements. 

12.1 Confidential Information. Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, you will not disclose Our Confidential Information during the Agreement Term or at any time during the 5-year period following the end of the Agreement Term except as required to comply with the law, and then only to a governmental entity that has jurisdiction over you, provided that you limit disclosure to the minimum necessary and explicitly indicate the confidential nature of the shared information to the governmental entity. 

You will use and disclose Our Confidential Information only to the extent necessary to perform your obligations under this Agreement or in connection with providing requested products or services to the disclosing Amazon Partner, and you will ensure that every recipient of Our Confidential Information complies with the restrictions applicable to you relating to that information. You will not refer to us, orally or in writing, in any manner that (a) implies sponsorship or endorsement by us or our Affiliates; or (b) misrepresents or embellishes your relationship with us in any way. You will not be required to maintain the confidentiality of any information we make available under this Agreement that: (a) is or becomes publicly available without breach of this Agreement; (b) can be shown by documentation to have been known to you at the time of your receipt from us; (c) is received from a third party who did not acquire or disclose the same by a wrongful or tortious act; or (d) can be shown by documentation to have been independently developed by you without reference to Our Confidential Information. 

You agree that (a) Our Confidential Information will remain Amazon's exclusive property except for customer personal data; (b) you will use Our Confidential Information only as is reasonably necessary for a Permitted Use on behalf of an Authorized User; (c) you will take all reasonable measures to protect Our Confidential Information against any use or disclosure that is not expressly permitted in this Agreement; and (d) you will retain Our Confidential Information only for so long as its use is necessary for participation in an Amazon service or to fulfill your statutory obligations (e.g. tax) and in all cases will delete such information upon termination or as soon as no longer required for the fulfilment of statutory obligations. Generally, you may not use personal data in any way inconsistent with applicable law. You must keep personal data confidential at all times (the above 5 years’ term limit does not apply to personal data).

If you believe (acting reasonably) that a personal data breach has occurred in relation to any customer personal data in your possession or otherwise under your control (including in the possession of a third party), you shall immediately notify Amazon of such personal data breach (in sufficient detail) for information purposes, and promptly take any actions (or require the third party to take such actions, if relevant) as applicable to you under data privacy Laws.

12.2 Public Statements. You will not issue press releases or make any public statement related to the Portal, Solution, or use our or any of our Affiliates’ names, trademarks, or logos (collectively the “Marks”) or anything that is identical to or confusingly similar to Amazon or our Affiliates’ Marks in any way (including in any advertisement or other promotional material) without our or their advance written permission. You warrant that any public statement made by you about Amazon or any of our Affiliates or related to the Portal or Services does not misrepresent or embellish your relationship with us or them in any way.

Any attempt to assign or otherwise transfer in violation of this section is void provided, however, that upon notice to Amazon, you may assign or transfer this Agreement, in whole or in part, to any of your Affiliates as long as you remain liable for your obligations that arose prior to the effective date of the assignment or transfer under this Agreement. You agree that we may assign or transfer our rights and obligations under this Agreement: (a) in connection with a merger, consolidation, acquisition or sale of all or substantially all of our assets or similar transaction; or (b) to any Affiliate or as part of a corporate reorganization; and effective upon such assignment, the Assignee is deemed substituted for Amazon as the party to this Agreement.

We may perform any of our obligations or exercise any of our rights under this Agreement through one or more of our Affiliates.

13.3 Waiver. Our failure to enforce your strict performance of any provision of this Agreement will not constitute a present or future waiver of such provision nor limit our right to enforce such provision or any other provision of this Agreement subsequently. All waivers by us must be in writing to be effective.

13.4 Severability. If any portion of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining portions of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect. Any invalid or unenforceable portions will be interpreted to the effect and the intent of the original portion.

If any such taxes (for example, international withholding taxes) are required to be withheld on any payment, you will pay such additional amounts as are necessary so that the net amount received by Amazon is equal to the amount then due and payable under this Agreement. Amazon will provide you with such tax forms as are reasonably requested in order to reduce or eliminate the amount of any withholding or deduction for taxes in respect of payments made under this Agreement.
