Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about this topic

It is a new section of Amazon's Business Solutions Agreement that defines how third-party tools and agents can access and operate within Seller Central. Any software, bot, or person acting on behalf of a seller must meet specific authorization and compliance requirements.
Every third-party tool that accesses Seller Central is affected. This includes repricing software, listing automation tools, inventory management platforms, PPC optimization tools, and agencies that log into your account.
Amazon can restrict or suspend seller accounts that continue using non-compliant tools after the deadline. Enforcement actions may include revoking API access, limiting account features, or full account suspension.
Contact each tool provider directly and ask about their BSA Agent Policy compliance status. Check if they are registered in Amazon's authorized developer program. Review the list of authorized apps in your Seller Central settings under "Manage Your Apps."
