How is ExportYourStore Setting Up My Amazon Store?

Updated today

Setting up an Amazon store involves multiple approval steps, validations, and proper configuration before products can be listed successfully. ExportYourStore simplifies this process by handling the technical setup, product mapping, and communication with Amazon when needed.

We ensure your store meets Amazon’s requirements in Amazon Seller Central so your listings can be created smoothly.

How are my products listed on Amazon?

There are two main ways to list products on Amazon, and we support both:

1. Using GTIN Exemption (No Barcode Required)

A GTIN (Global Trade Item Number) exemption allows you to list products without UPC, EAN, or ISBN codes.

How it works:

  • We assist in applying for GTIN exemption for your brand

  • If you don’t have a brand, we can apply under a Generic brand

Why this is commonly used:

  • Faster and easier setup

  • Ideal for private label or unbranded products

  • No need to purchase barcodes

2. Using Barcodes (UPC / EAN / ISBN)

If your products already have valid barcodes, you can use them to create listings on Amazon.

How it works:

  • You provide the barcode data (if not already in your listings)

  • We configure and map them correctly in your feed

  • Products are submitted using these identifiers

What does ExportYourStore handle during setup (One-time Setup Add-on)?

We support your store setup by:

  • Creating and configuring your product feeds

  • Mapping your product data to Amazon-required fields

  • Assisting with GTIN exemption applications

  • Helping with brand-related setup (if applicable)

  • Troubleshooting listing errors and approval issues

  • Communicating with Amazon when necessary

What should I expect during the setup process?

  • New Amazon accounts may require verification and activation time

  • Some categories or products may need additional approvals

  • Listing creation depends on Amazon’s validation and processing

Important Notes

  • Products cannot be listed until your account is fully active

  • GTIN exemption approval is handled by Amazon and may take time

  • Accurate product data helps speed up the setup process
