Sellers can now manage sales across Amazon, eBay, Shopify, TikTok, and Walmart from Seller Central - aboutamazon.com
Amazon Seller Central now supports unified multi-channel order and inventory management across eBay, Shopify, TikTok Shop, and Walmart — live as of September 24, 2026. Sellers can manage all five platforms from a single dashboard without third-party aggregators.
Amazon is accelerating platform consolidation by making itself the operating system for all of ecommerce — sellers get convenience, Amazon gets cross-platform sales data and deeper lock-in, compressing the market for independent SaaS aggregators.
This kills the core value proposition of multi-channel management tools like Linnworks, Sellbrite, and ChannelAdvisor for basic operations — agencies running these tools for clients need to reassess their tech stack and retainer justifications now. The real risk: inventory sync errors during the transition period could tank your IPI score or oversell on Walmart, triggering account flags.

Audit your current multi-channel management tool contracts — if you're paying for aggregators that now duplicate Seller Central's native functionality, cancel or downgrade before the next billing cycle.
