Amazon Multi-Channel Fulfillment (MCF) Integration

Plans: All plans Platforms: Amazon


Overview


AfterShip Feed enables you to list your Amazon products on TikTok Shop and seamlessly fulfill orders using Amazon FBA (Fulfillment by Amazon) by syncing orders to Amazon. This integration automates the process by generating fulfillment orders on Amazon when an order is placed on TikTok Shop. Once the Amazon FBA fulfillment order has tracking information, it will automatically fulfill the corresponding TikTok Shop order.


Prerequisites


Before using the TikTok Shop and Amazon FBA integration, it's important to keep note of certain limitations.


1. Amazon UK and US compatibility


This integration fully supports Amazon sellers from both the United Kingdom and the United States.


2. Orders and product syncing



  • AfterShip Feed supports both FBA and FBM (Fulfilled by Merchant) product syncing to your TikTok Shop
  • AfterShip Feed for TikTok Shop and Amazon FBA Integration only supports syncing orders that contain Amazon FBA products only
  • AfterShip Feed will block the orders that contain FBM (Fulfilled by Merchant) products. The merchants have to manually fulfill FBM orders on the TikTok Seller Center


Please ensure that your products meet the necessary eligibility criteria set by Amazon for order fulfillment through their platform.


3. Understanding order status sync


The integration only syncs TikTok Shop orders with Awaiting shipment status to Amazon and subsequently a fulfillment order will be created on Amazon



4. TikTok shipping option should be Shipped by Seller


AfterShip Feed with only sync orders with Shipped by Seller also called Seller shipping shipping option on TikTok shop. If you encounter syncing TikTok orders to Amazon, it could be due to the shipping option not being as Shipped by Seller. You can modify the shipping option on TikTok Shop to resolve this issue.

  • If you want additional carriers to be supported to generate returns shipping label, reach out to our customer support for assistance.


  1. Configure your TikTok Shipping method: Your TikTok shipping method must be set to Seller Shipping (also referred to as Ship by Seller) for returns to work correctly.


Important: This feature is still in its Beta version. To have access, reach out to our customer support agents to get your organization and TikTok Shop IDs whitelisted.


Enabling return and refund sync in AfterShip Feed





  1. Navigate to AfterShip Feed Settings, then Channel settings.
  2. Go to the Return and refund sync settings and toggle the feature on the Auto-sync returns and refunds option.
  3. Under Add Shipping Carrier, select the carrier account you’d like to use for generating return labels. All the carrier accounts your organization is currently connected to and AfterShip Feed supports will be listed for selection.
  • Select the carrier and click Add carrier.
  • If you want to add more carrier accounts, click Add carrier accounts.


Only one carrier account can be used at a time.


  1. Click Save.


How the return process works


  1. Buyer requests a return from the TikTok App.
  2. AfterShip syncs the TikTok return order to Amazon when the request passes the first approval (according to TikTok policy, almost all products should be returnable; only several product categories need to be manually approved/rejected) and creates an MCF RMA.
  3. Amazon MCF returns an MCF shipping slip and warehouse address to AfterShip.
  4. AfterShip creates a shipping label using the seller's carrier account, and combines the shipping label, MCF slip, and order information into one file and passes the file to the TikTok App.


  • Since different carriers have different address format requirements, pay attention to whether the shipping label is successfully generated during testing.





  1. Buyers access the file from the TikTok App and ship the products back to the MCF warehouse.
  2. AfterShip will track the return tracking number. If the package is confirmed as delivered, a TikTok refund will be triggered. This means the second approval of this TikTok return request will be auto-triggered.
  3. Buyer receives the refund notification sent by TikTok Shop.
