1. Create a seller’s account.

This can be your personal Amazon login, or you can set up a new Amazon seller’s account with your business email. In addition to your email address (and password, if you are using your personal account), you will need a credit card, government-issued ID, tax information, phone number, and bank account.

2. Choose a plan.

Amazon breaks its Marketplace plans down into Individual and Professional. The Individual Selling Plan does not have a monthly subscription fee. Amazon will collect a fee of $0.99 per sale in addition to other standard sales fees. The Professional Selling Plan has a monthly subscription fee of $39.99, but there is no per-sale fee. This plan, like the Individual Selling Plan, is subject to other Amazon referral and closing fees. Amazon recommends signing up for the Professional Selling Plan if you plan to sell more than 40 items per month.
