Hi, I’d like to start drop shipping on Amazon, but I’m unsure of the process. I am a beginner. I am currently running my Drop shipping store on Shopify with CJ Drop shipping. I haven’t gotten any sales yet. So, the next step I’d like to start drop shipping on Amazon. Is it possible to connect the Amazon seller account to CJ Drop shipping? If yes, how to do it? or can I connect the Amazon seller account to my Shopify store and list my Shopify products on Amazon? Which is best? Please, anybody, tell me how to do drop shipping on Amazon.
Topic summary
A beginner dropshipper currently using Shopify with CJ Dropshipping (no sales yet) wants to expand to Amazon and asks about integration options.
Main Integration Approaches Discussed:
-
CJ Dropshipping → Amazon (Direct): Recommended as simplest method. Connect via CJ’s Authorization menu, though the Amazon option may be region-restricted or require manual activation from CJ support. A direct URL workaround is suggested if the menu option is missing.
-
Shopify → Amazon (via apps): Possible using third-party apps like Codisto or Amazon by CedCommerce, but considered more complex and error-prone.
Key Warnings:
- Amazon has strict dropshipping policies—violations can result in account suspension
- Cannot dropship from Amazon to other platforms (violates Amazon’s terms, includes Amazon branding)
- Must comply with Amazon’s fulfillment rules (no third-party branding on packages)
Alternative Solutions Mentioned:
- AutoDS: Supports Amazon-to-Shopify imports with automated fulfillment and inventory syncing (30+ suppliers supported)
- Zopi: Connects to AliExpress and US warehouses for Shopify dropshipping
Resolution: User’s immediate issue (missing Amazon authorization option) addressed with troubleshooting steps and support contact recommendation. Discussion remains open regarding best practices.
Hey!
Yes! CJ supports direct integration with Amazon.
Steps:
-
Create an Amazon Seller Central account.
-
Go to CJ > Authorization > Amazon.
-
Click “Add Store” and connect your Amazon account.
-
List CJ products to Amazon and sync orders directly.
Can You Connect Amazon to Shopify Instead?
You can, but it’s not recommended.
You’ll need third-party apps (e.g., Codisto), and the process is more complex.
Which Is Better?
Best Option: Connect CJ Dropshipping directly to Amazon.
It’s simpler, faster, and avoids errors.
**How to Start Dropshipping on Amazon (Beginner Steps):**1. Create Amazon Seller account.
-
Choose fast-shipping CJ products.
-
Connect CJ to Amazon.
-
List products, manage orders via CJ.
-
Stay compliant with Amazon rules (no third-party branding).
But amazon is not in the authorization option
1. Amazon Integration May Be Region-Restricted or Account-Restricted
CJ only supports Amazon integration for certain countries/marketplaces (like Amazon US, UK, etc.). If your CJ account is set to a region where Amazon isn’t supported yet, the option may not appear.
Fix:
-
Go to CJ > My CJ > Settings > Country/Region
-
Make sure your store’s region is set to one of the supported Amazon marketplaces.
2. Amazon Integration Is Not Enabled by Default
CJ may not display Amazon as an option until you request activation or use the correct user path.
Fix:
-
Contact CJ support via live chat and request to enable Amazon integration on your account.
-
They may manually activate this for you if it’s not publicly listed.
3. Use the Direct Amazon Link for Authorization
If the menu option is missing, you can try accessing the Amazon store connection page directly.
Try this URL:
https://app.cjdropshipping.com/store/storeAmazon
(You’ll need to be logged into your CJ account)
If this works, it will lead you through Amazon Seller Central OAuth and store connection steps.
4. CJ Platform UI Update
CJ sometimes updates their UI and menu structure, so the Amazon integration might be relocated under a different submenu (like “Store Authorization” > “Other Stores” or “More”).
If Nothing Works:
If Amazon is still not showing:
-
Open a CJ support ticket or live chat
-
Mention: “Amazon is not showing in my Authorization list, but I need to connect my Amazon Seller account. Please enable or guide me through setup.”
you can do dropshipping on Amazon, but it comes with serious risks. Amazon is extremely strict about how it’s done, and I’ve seen many sellers lose their accounts for not following the rules properly.

Okay. I will be careful. Thank you so much
Great question - a lot of people are curious about using Amazon for dropshipping, and it’s important to understand both the limitations and alternatives.
Can You Dropship From Amazon to Shopify?
Technically, yes - but it’s not recommended for a few key reasons:
-
Violation of Amazon’s terms: Amazon’s dropshipping policy doesn’t allow you to purchase products from Amazon and have them shipped with Amazon branding on behalf of your store.
-
Unstable inventory & pricing: Product listings change frequently on Amazon, making it hard to guarantee availability or profit margins.
-
No control over packaging or delivery experience, which can affect customer trust and store branding.
If you’re selling on Shopify, it’s much better to work with dedicated dropshipping suppliers who support business fulfillment — and allow you to track, manage, and automate orders professionally.

CJ Dropshipping makes it even easier to work with Amazon as well – simply connect your CJ account to local stores on Amazon through their easy-to-use Amazon integration. But if you have some more time and are interested, you may also like to consider using apps such as Codisto or Amazon by CedCommerce to list Shopify products on Amazon. Make certain that every one of your listings conforms to Amazon strict dropshipping and fulfillment policy so as not to get your account suspended. hope this helps
