How Amazon Fees Work for Health & Household
Health & Household products on Amazon carry an 8% referral fee on items priced above $10. For products at $10 or below, the referral fee increases to 15%. This category is broad, covering dietary supplements, vitamins, over-the-counter health products, household cleaning supplies, air purifiers, medical supplies, and wellness products.
This category requires careful attention to regulatory compliance. Dietary supplements must comply with FDA regulations and proper supplement facts labeling. Amazon has its own restricted products policy that goes beyond federal requirements in some areas. Products classified as pesticides (including some cleaning products and insect repellents) need EPA registration numbers. Many health products are also classified as hazmat for FBA purposes, requiring additional documentation and incurring supplemental handling fees. Despite these hurdles, the Health & Household category benefits from extremely strong repeat purchase behavior, making Subscribe & Save a powerful tool for building recurring revenue.
