Qualification note
Marketplace-linked fulfilment service. Keep distinct from Amazon Shipping (Carriers & Delivery, plat-amazon-shipping) and Amazon Marketplace (Marketplace, provider-only) — three separate existing Amazon identities, not duplicated here. Validate whether the client needs FBA specifically for Amazon-channel fulfilment or Multi-Channel Fulfilment (MCF) for broader order volume.
