Amazon Channel

The Amazon integration connects your Newclear catalog to Amazon Seller Central, enabling inventory synchronization and order import across any Amazon marketplace worldwide.


Prerequisites

  • An Amazon Seller Central account (Individual or Professional plan — Professional recommended for API access)
  • Your account must be approved for the marketplace(s) you want to sell on
  • MWS (Marketplace Web Services) or SP-API access enabled on your seller account

Connecting Amazon via OAuth

  1. Go to Channel Listings+ Add ChannelAmazon
  2. Click Connect Amazon Seller Central
  3. You'll be redirected to Amazon's SP-API OAuth authorization page
  4. Sign in with your Seller Central credentials
  5. Select the marketplace(s) you want to authorize (e.g., Amazon.com, Amazon.ca, Amazon.co.uk)
  6. Click Authorize
  7. You're redirected back to Newclear — your Amazon account is connected
note

Each marketplace region requires a separate authorization. If you sell on both Amazon.com (US) and Amazon.co.uk (UK), you'll go through the OAuth flow twice.


Marketplace Selection

After connecting, choose which marketplaces to enable for sync:

  1. Go to Channel Listings → Amazon → Settings → Marketplaces
  2. Toggle on the marketplaces you want to use:
    • Amazon.com (US)
    • Amazon.ca (Canada)
    • Amazon.co.uk (UK)
    • Amazon.de (Germany)
    • Amazon.fr (France)
    • Amazon.es (Spain)

Listing Products on Amazon

Amazon product listings are more complex than other channels — they require:

  • An existing ASIN (Amazon Standard Identification Number) to attach inventory to
  • Or a full new product submission (brand registration required for most categories)

Matching to Existing ASINs

  1. Open a product in Newclear
  2. Click List on Amazon
  3. Enter the ASIN you want to match to
  4. Map your SKU to that ASIN
  5. Set price and quantity
  6. Submit

Creating New ASINs

New ASIN creation requires Amazon Brand Registry in most categories. Contact Amazon seller support for your specific category.


Inventory Sync

Once products are matched to ASINs:

  • Newclear pushes inventory updates to Amazon after every stock change
  • Amazon's "fulfillable quantity" is updated to match Newclear's on-hand quantity
  • Prevents overselling across Amazon and other channels

Price Sync

  • Newclear price is pushed as the Amazon listing price
  • Promotional prices from the Promotions Engine sync to Amazon as sale prices

Order Import

Amazon orders are pulled into Newclear:

  • Source = "Amazon"
  • Orders include customer info (note: Amazon often anonymizes customer email addresses)
  • Fulfillment updates (shipped + tracking) can be pushed back to Amazon

  • Check Amazon's SP-API status page for any ongoing issues

Orders not importing
