What is the Amazon FBA New Selection Incentive Plan?
This plan is applicable to your eligible Amazon FBA new parent ASINs, with unlimited participation.
Launched in March 2019, Amazon FBA introduced a limited-time offer for monthly storage and removal fee waivers for new ASINs. In April 2021, this plan was upgraded to the "Amazon FBA New Selection Incentive Plan."
