Amazon has introduced a significant update on its Seller Central platform that simplifies shipping for multi-box orders. With the new feature titled “Purchase multiple labels in Buy Shipping for multi-box orders,” sellers can now generate multiple shipping labels for a single item that is shipped in more than one package. The update addresses a long-standing limitation and is expected to improve operational efficiency, tracking accuracy, and customer satisfaction for seller-fulfilled orders across the US marketplace.

What has changed for sellers
Earlier, sellers faced challenges when shipping products that required multiple packages, such as furniture sets, large appliances, or bundled items. The system allowed only a single shipping label, forcing sellers to manage additional packages manually outside Amazon’s Buy Shipping workflow.
With this new update announced on Seller Central, sellers can now:
• Select the number of packages for a single order
• Purchase multiple shipping labels in one workflow
• Assign a unique label and tracking number to each package
• View consolidated shipping rates before purchase
This change brings better control and accuracy in handling complex shipments.
Package-level tracking and performance metrics
One of the key improvements is the introduction of package-level tracking. Amazon will now create a unique shipment ID for each package in a multi-box order. This enables more precise tracking of performance metrics such as:
• Valid tracking rate
• On-time delivery rate
By tracking each package individually, Amazon can better evaluate seller performance and reduce discrepancies in delivery data.
Impact on claims and seller protection
The update also strengthens the claims process for sellers. Since each package now has its own tracking and shipment ID, Amazon can more accurately process:
• A-to-z Guarantee claims
• SAFE-T claims for reimbursement
This reduces the chances of disputes arising from missing or delayed packages within a multi-box shipment and provides sellers with better protection.
Improved customer experience
Customers will also benefit from this update. Instead of a single tracking number for multiple packages, buyers will now receive:
• Individual tracking details for each package
• Separate delivery estimates
This added transparency helps manage customer expectations and reduces confusion when parts of an order arrive at different times.
Why this matters for Amazon sellers
This update is particularly useful for sellers dealing in bulky, heavy, or multi-part products. Categories such as furniture, fitness equipment, home improvement, and large electronics are expected to see the most impact.
Key advantages include:
• Reduced manual work and fewer shipping errors
• Better compliance with Amazon’s tracking requirements
• Lower risk of account health issues due to tracking gaps
• Improved buyer trust and fewer customer complaints
Sellers using Buy Shipping will also continue to benefit from Amazon’s integrated carrier support, competitive rates, and automated tracking uploads.
Amazon’s move to enable multiple labels for multi-box orders marks a practical and much-needed upgrade for seller-fulfilled shipping. By integrating multi-package handling directly into Buy Shipping, the platform is making logistics smoother, more transparent, and more reliable.
For sellers, this means fewer operational challenges, stronger protection in case of disputes, and better performance metrics. For customers, it ensures clearer tracking and a more predictable delivery experience. Overall, the update is a step forward in improving efficiency and trust across Amazon’s marketplace ecosystem.
