Seller Feedback is a rating system that Amazon uses to help buyers and sellers communicate with each other.
For example, sellers can provide feedback for positive or negative transactions, and buyers can give ratings for how helpful the seller was during the transaction.
There are three ways to receive Seller Feedback on Amazon:
1. Through the Amazon Seller Central platform
2. From your orders
3. Via email
Sellers can get feedback through Seller Central by submitting a request for feedback. When you submit a request for feedback, Amazon will give you a rating and review of your transaction. You can also view the ratings and reviews of other sellers who have submitted requests for feedback.
Sellers can receive positive or negative customer feedback from their orders through various methods, such as shipping labels, order confirmation emails, Amazon messages (including contact forms), and product ratings on the Buyer's Review Ratings page.
When sellers elect to receive feedback via email, Amazon will send them a message with the rating and review of their transaction.
When you rate your seller feedback, you're allowing other Amazon shoppers to help you decide whether or not they would recommend purchasing from this seller in the future.
Ratings can be positive (5-star), negative (1-star), or undecided (3-or 4-stars).
To rate sellers, buyers can go to the 'Positive' and 'Negative' sections of each seller's page in Seller Central and click on the appropriate button.
Then they will be taken to a form where they can enter their feedback text without leaving their review. Ratings from orders through your buyer dashboard also count towards ratings for your seller.
Amazon evaluates Seller Feedback scores using a weighted formula that considers the number of ratings, the severity of the rating, and how long it has been since the rating was given.
