The Problem

Amazon decides when. You wait.

Amazon can suspend an account or freeze disbursements with little warning — and the funds can sit for weeks or months. For a healthy business, that's a cash-flow emergency that pays no payroll, no suppliers, no ads.

01

Section 3 review

A policy investigation locks your account and funds while Amazon decides.

02

IP complaint

A single complaint can trigger a suspension and hold every dollar in transit.

03

Verification check

Routine ID, address, or bank checks can pause disbursements indefinitely.

04

Reserve spike

A sudden change in rolling reserve can vacuum cash out of your operating account.

How PayShield Works

Four steps. That's the entire product.

01

Connect Amazon

Link Seller Central via secure SP-API. We review your payout history to set your eligible coverage and rate.

02

Pick your plan

Choose a coverage tier from $10K to $250K. Pay a fixed monthly subscription. Coverage activates after a 30-day waiting period.

03

File a claim

If Amazon suspends your account or holds your disbursement, file a claim. We verify via your connected SP-API in hours, not days.

04

Get paid in 24h

Approved claims are funded within 24 hours, up to your covered amount, minus a 2–5% claim fee.

Coverage Tiers

Fixed pricing. No surprises.

Based on your Amazon payout history, we'll offer one or more of the tiers below. One predictable monthly subscription — no variable fees on every payout.

Why Sellers Choose PayShield

Protection that actually moves at seller speed.

Fast access to your money

Approved claims funded within 24 hours — not the 90+ days Amazon may hold your funds during a review.

Fixed, predictable cost

One monthly subscription. No variable fees on every payout. You know exactly what protection costs.

Built for Amazon sellers

We understand Section 3 suspensions, IP complaints, verification holds, and reserve spikes — and we cover them.

No daily-payout commitment

PayShield is standalone protection. No need to switch how you get paid by Amazon today.

What's In, What's Out

No fine-print surprises.

A clear line between events PayShield covers and things outside of payout-protection. We'd rather tell you upfront than at claim time.

Covered events

  • Account suspensions — Section 3, IP complaints, related accounts
  • Disbursement holds during Amazon verification
  • Funds-reserve increases beyond standard rolling reserve
  • Holds longer than the 7-day elimination period

Not covered

  • Standard 14-day disbursement cycles and rolling reserves
  • Holds caused by seller-initiated bank or account changes
  • Confirmed counterfeit, fraud, or knowing policy violations
  • Tax levies, court-ordered garnishments, chargeback debits
Eligibility

Three things to qualify.

Account health

No active suspension, performance notice, or open investigation at the time of enrollment.
