As an Amazon seller, account health plays important role in the success and long-term stability of your business on the platform. Maintaining good account health ensures a seamless selling experience, builds trust with customers, and keeps your business safe from suspensions.
Amazon evaluates several key performance metrics to determine the health of your account. These include:
-
01
Order Defect Rate (ODR):
ODR reflects the percentage of orders that result in negative customer experiences such as negative feedback, A-to-Z claims, and chargebacks. Amazon requires that sellers maintain an ODR of less than 1%. A higher rate can risk your selling privileges and even lead to account suspension.
-
02
Cancellation Rate:
This metric tracks the number of orders canceled by the seller before shipping. Maintaining a low cancellation rate is crucial to providing a reliable service to your customers. A high cancellation rate can negatively impact your account health and result in penalties.
-
03
Late Shipment Rate:
This measures how often your orders are shipped after the expected shipment date. Late shipments lead to poor customer experience, and Amazon follows strict guidelines on this to ensure timely deliveries. Sellers must maintain a low late shipment rate to remain in good standing.
-
04
Valid Tracking Rate (VTR):
The VTR measures the percentage of shipped orders that include valid tracking information. Providing accurate tracking data helps Amazon maintain a high level of customer satisfaction and ensures transparency. Sellers should consistently upload valid tracking information for their shipments.
-
05
On-Time Delivery:
Delivering orders on or before the promised delivery date is vital to customer satisfaction. Late deliveries can lead to poor reviews, negatively impacting both your account health and sales.
