Question: What is the name of the self-service portal that Amazon.com sellers use to create listings, manage orders, and correspond with customers?
- Vendor Central
- Seller Central
- Advertising console
Explanation
Seller Central is the self-service portal used by Amazon sellers to manage selling activity on Amazon. It supports core seller operations such as product listing management, order management, inventory tasks, and customer communication. In Amazon Ads retail context, it is associated with sellers, while vendor-facing workflows use a different portal. This distinction matters because seller access and vendor access determine which retail tools and account environments are used.
Why the other options are incorrect
Vendor Central is used by vendors that sell products directly to Amazon, not by sellers managing their own marketplace listings.
Advertising console is used to create and manage Amazon Ads campaigns, not to manage seller listings, orders, and customer correspondence.
