Signing up for Amazon.nl? There’s something you should know
Boasting the fourth largest percentage of online shoppers of any European country, 85% of the population in the Netherlands is estimated to buy online. The Netherlands, therefore, presents an unmissable opportunity for eCommerce merchants seeking to grow their business. Unfortunately, a new restriction on Amazon’s latest site poses an obstacle that overseas merchants will need to mitigate.
Unlike other Amazon Europe platforms where you can use a currency account located anywhere in the Eurozone to collect proceeds from your sales, Amazon’s newest site, Amazon.nl, requires a Netherlands-based account in order to receive your payouts.
- Open 20+ local currency accounts and get paid like a local
- Pay suppliers, partners and staff worldwide in 100+ currencies
- Collect payments for free from 130+ marketplaces and payment gateways, including Amazon, Etsy, PayPal and Shopify
- Save with competitive exchange rates on currency conversions and transfers
- Lock in exchange rates for up to 24 months for cash flow certainty
WorldFirst can help
WorldFirst is delighted to be able to offer EUR collection accounts based in the Netherlands, allowing you to gain access to one of the most exciting new European marketplaces in recent years. These local currency accounts are available to new and existing customers alike, contact us so you can maximise the opportunity that Amazon.nl presents.
You could benefit from our transparent pricing. As a new WorldFirst customer you will be allocated a 0.5% FX fee if you open an International payments account and a 0.6% fee if you open an International collection account.
