After you complete reviewing your SKUs and configuring your shipping options, the app is set up for MCF fulfillment.

Best practices

Automate MCF fulfillment: You can submit orders to MCF for fulfillment manually, or you can automate this process using one of the following three options: Shopify order processing setting, Shopify Flow, or a third-party app. For more information, go to Automating MCF fulfillment.

Bundles: You can use the app to fulfill bundles created in your Shopify store. To fulfill a bundle with MCF:

  1. Use any bundles app from the Shopify App Store to create the bundles.
  2. Map all bundle components (SKUs) in the Amazon Multichannel Fulfillment app.

Optional configurations

Use MCF without Amazon logistics (US only): You can choose to block US orders from being shipped by Amazon Logistics, for a 5% fee surcharge. Blocking Amazon Logistics increases the risk of your orders being unfulfilled or delivered late if there are no alternative carriers available. For more information, go to Using MCF without Amazon Logistics.

Add MCF fast badges to show delivery estimates (US only)

MCF fast badges allows you to display fast delivery estimates on the product detail pages of your Shopify site, on your Google product listings ads, and on your TikTok ads. MCF fast badges are only available in the US.

To set up the badge for your store’s product detail pages:

  1. On your Shopify admin, choose Online Store, and then Themes.
  2. Choose Customize for the theme you’d like to edit.
  3. At the top-middle of the page, on the drop-down menu (initially Home page), change the selection to Products, and then select the template that you want to edit. For example, the Default Product template.
  4. On the side menu, in the Sections toolbar, go to the Template section or the specific section where you have key product information, such as the title, price, buy button, and so on. Hover between existing blocks/apps and then choose add block when it appears.
  5. In the menu that appears, select the Apps tab, and then choose MCF Fast Badges.
