it worked for me!!! thank you so much. I got to ungated gourmet food category!!
Hi,
I am a new seller on Amazon. I ordered 100 units from a manufacturer in China through Alibaba, and currently my products are at Amazon warehouse. They are asking for an invoice, and I have uploaded the invoice a couple of times, but they keep rejecting it. Any ideas on what to do?
Does this need to be done for every brand within Grocery, or once you do it for Grocery, does it ungate most brands within the Grocery category?
You’re literally the best! From a small business on Amazon I can’t thank you enough for your advice to help others get ungated! Every video I’ve watched has been successful for me! Thank you so much!!
Hi! Thank you for this video. Is this method of ungating with Frontier still working?
I love your videos. Im not sure if i am doing something wrong but almost every time i look up a product I get a message that either says that my account does not qualify, or a different one is "However we are not accepting applications " Is there possibily something I have set up wrong in my settings, or is this just normal. A lot of the time it doesn't even give me a screen where I could submit an invoice,
Hello how do I ungate my own product? A sauce
Hiii, so I got approved in a grocery category for a grocery product, how do I know if it ungated me for the grocery category? Do I have to do it with each product individually?
I have been denied ungating in grocery 5 times. I did exactly as you showed in this video. I have not been getting a reason from Amazon on why they are denying me. Do you have an ideas or advice for me. Please help!!!!!
Anywhere other then Frontier to get ungated?
They require business license and I’d rather get going without all that at this beginner stage. Thank you!
Thanks for the great information
Hi, I tried to ungate grocery as you recomended, I submitted a frontier invoice for 10 items ( 5 black pepper + 5 pizza seasoning), in 2 days I got denied. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
I try to go onto frontier whole sale but it says they are under maintenance. Is this still a good website to use?
