Seller Fulfilled Prime in Europe, the Prime badge, on your own stock
Seller Fulfilled Prime lets you show the Prime badge while shipping from your own 3PL — but only if you hit Amazon's strict speed and tracking bar. Get matched to European partners that can actually meet it.
La diferencia
Prime speed, without handing stock to FBA
SFP is attractive and unforgiving: keep control of your stock and the Prime badge, but miss the on-time dispatch, delivery-speed or tracking targets and Amazon suspends it. The matching filters to partners with the carrier speed, cut-offs and tracking discipline SFP demands, so the badge you earn is one you can keep.
SFP speed and cut-offs met
Filter to partners whose dispatch cut-offs and carrier services meet Amazon's Prime delivery-speed requirements consistently, because SFP is judged on hitting them nearly every time, not on average.
On-time dispatch and valid tracking
See partners that dispatch within Amazon's window and return valid tracking on every order, the two metrics Amazon watches most closely to decide whether your Prime eligibility stays live.

¿Qué es Seller Fulfilled Prime?
Seller Fulfilled Prime (SFP) is an Amazon programme that lets a seller display the Prime badge on listings while fulfilling orders from their own warehouse or third-party 3PL, instead of sending stock into Amazon's FBA network. The appeal is keeping control of inventory, avoiding FBA storage fees, and holding a single stock pool that serves Amazon and other channels — while still getting the conversion boost of the Prime badge. The catch is that Amazon holds SFP orders to Prime-level standards: fast delivery to the customer, dispatch within tight cut-offs, and valid tracking on nearly every order, monitored closely, with suspension of Prime eligibility if the targets are missed. That makes carrier speed, dispatch discipline and tracking accuracy the deciding factors. An SFP-capable 3PL is one whose operation and carrier mix can meet those requirements consistently across the markets a seller ships to, which is a higher bar than standard fulfilment.

Preguntas frecuentes
What is Seller Fulfilled Prime?
It is an Amazon programme that lets you show the Prime badge while shipping orders from your own warehouse or 3PL instead of FBA. You keep control of your stock and avoid FBA storage fees, but you must meet Amazon's Prime standards for delivery speed, on-time dispatch and valid tracking, or your Prime eligibility can be suspended.
How is SFP different from FBA?
With FBA you send stock into Amazon's network and Amazon fulfils and earns you the Prime badge. With SFP you keep the stock and fulfil yourself or through a 3PL, and still get the badge — provided you hit Amazon's speed and tracking bar. SFP suits sellers who want to keep one stock pool across channels and avoid FBA fees, but it puts the performance burden on your fulfilment.
What does a 3PL need to meet SFP requirements?
Carrier services fast enough for Prime delivery dates, dispatch discipline to hit Amazon's tight cut-offs, and accurate, on-time tracking on virtually every order. Amazon measures these closely and suspends Prime for slippage. So an SFP-capable partner is one that can prove it meets those targets consistently in your markets, not just handle standard dispatch.
Can I run SFP and FBA together?
Many sellers do — using FBA for some products and SFP for others, or as a hedge. SFP is often chosen where FBA fees or stock control make self-fulfilment more attractive but the Prime badge is still wanted. A partner running your SFP stock can usually also prep and forward stock into FBA, so the two coexist from one operation.
Is SFP available across EU marketplaces?
SFP operates in European Amazon marketplaces, with the delivery-speed and tracking requirements applying per market. Meeting them depends on carrier coverage and speed in each country, so a partner positioned for the markets you sell into is essential. Share your target marketplaces so the shortlist only includes partners that can meet SFP there.
