Will converting to North America Unified Account cause suspension?
 

Hi,

TLDR: we had an account suspended years ago on Amazon.com, but we have another account for Amazon.ca still active, will the latter changing to North America Unified Account and/or selling on Amazon.com again cause suspension?

Let's say our company is called abc.com

We have 2 Amazon accounts:

• usa@abc.com, for Amazon.com (US) only, suspended 6 years ago
• ca@abc.com, for Amazon.ca (Canada) only, still active

The 2 email addresses are under the same domain abc.com, 2 accounts under the same addresses and same contact person, used on the same computers.

6 years ago, our usa@abc.com account was suspended, because we were selling our products under another brand's listings. My bad, lesson learned.

At the time (even til now) the suspension of usa@ account on Amazon.com did not cause the suspension of ca@ on Amazon.ca.

We haven't been selling on Amazon.com (US) since then (due to suspension);
but we've been selling on Amazon.ca in good health with our ca@ account, we learned the lesson and always list under the correct UPCs in good faith.

Now, if we start selling on Amazon.com (US) again with our ca@ email account, probably by converting to the North America Unified Account, will this cause suspension, given that our company info / computer / address never changed?

Because the ca@ account is our bread and butter, we're extremely cautious, so any chance of suspension is to be avoided.

Thank you very much!

yep, they'll get linked.
Do realize that Amazon is actually a TECH company. THey are tough, ruthless and unfair.

If I were you, keep your main account the way it is. Not broken? Don't fix it.
Then use the amazon ghost to make new accounts that's separate.

Once you start to understand how things work, come back in here and start asking more specific questions so we can help you a long.

Thanks, yeah that's what I thought, the risk is too high, probably not worth it.

I'll keep it as it is and not change a thing.

Thanks again!

I have an account that is Amazon.com account and I has my Amazon.ca selling account suspended, they did not suspend my .com account. The likelihood is that is your .ca is going into a North America unified account there will no issues,
