Selling Partner Risk’s mission is to protect Customers, Selling Partners, Brands and Amazon’s businesses. We achieve this by ensuring robust vetting of a seller’s identity and stopping bad actors from launching a new selling account, stopping bad actors from compromising existing selling accounts, stopping bad actors attempts to engage in financial fraud, preventing bad actors from driving sales through rank or reviews manipulation, and eliminating financial incentives for bad actors.
While we obsess over customers, we specialize in obsessing over bad actors to identify their friction points and multiply them exponentially in ways that don’t impact good sellers.
Our vision is to ensure Bad Actors never receive a dollar from selling on Amazon and abusing our policies. This is done with minimal friction for good sellers, clearly communicated policies, and risk assessments. If we successfully achieve our vision, then Bad Actors will stop committing misconduct on Amazon.
