AMAZON

Amazon seller environment check

Checks whether your network suits running an Amazon store: is the exit a stable residential connection, does the IP's country match where the account is registered, are there proxy flags or blocklist records, and is your real IP leaking.

Check your Amazon environment

We check what Amazon can see of your environment: whether the exit IP is residential or datacenter, whether it carries proxy flags or blocklist records, whether its country matches your account, whether your real IP leaks through WebRTC or IPv6, and whether your system time zone and language contradict the exit. Takes about 5–10 seconds.

Real-IP leaks
Device region consistency

Account registration country

Cross-border sellers (a company registered in mainland China, onboarded through Amazon Global Selling) should pick "Mainland China": Amazon expects your sign-in environment to match your registration details and stay stable, not to pose as being in the marketplace's country. Local sellers pick their company's country; buyers pick where they are.

No sign-in and no access to your platform account. IP intelligence and leak probes need network requests; browser settings are read locally

Amazon environment requirements at a glance

What Amazon sellers fear most is linked accounts and sign-in anomalies. From outside we can check the environment layer: is the exit stable residential broadband, does the IP's country match the account's registration, are there proxy flags or blocklist records, and does your real IP leak through WebRTC or IPv6. Payout accounts, addresses, company details and historical cookies carry most of the linking weight, and they live inside Amazon where no outside tool can see.

China-registered cross-border sellers signing in to Seller Central from China is normal; Amazon expects your sign-in environment to match your registration and stay stable.
Scoring weights on this page: Account country match 30, IP type 30, Leak check 16, Reputation 10, Anonymity flags 8, Timezone vs IP 6.
Several stores sharing one exit IP is among the most direct linking evidence; give each store its own fixed exit.
Switching exits between several countries triggers verification more readily than consistently using one country.
The European marketplaces belong to the EU single market, so an account country and exit both inside the EU earn half marks.
The main linking evidence (payout accounts, shipping and return addresses, company and legal-representative details, historical cookies) lives inside Amazon and can't be checked here.

How the score works

The score only covers what Amazon can observe from outside on this visit, out of 100, weighted as below; unmeasured items are left out of the total, and below 85% coverage the verdict is never a pass.

Dimension	What we check	Why it matters	Weight
Account country match	Whether the exit IP's country matches the account country / target market you selected	Signing in for long periods from somewhere other than the registration is a common trigger for extra verification and account review	30
IP type	Whether the exit is residential / mobile, datacenter, or an organization network such as business or education	Datacenter ranges are shared by many accounts, and real users rarely come from datacenters	30
Leak check	Whether WebRTC reveals another public address and whether IPv4 / IPv6 exits are in different countries	A second exposed address shows the real location behind the proxy	16
Reputation	Abuse reports and DNSBL blocklist entries (whichever is worse)	Reputation follows the address; records left by previous users count against you too	10
Anonymity flags	Whether the exit is flagged as a VPN, proxy, residential proxy or Tor	Amazon can look up publicly flagged addresses directly in commercial databases	8
Timezone vs IP	Whether the system time zone conflicts with the exit IP's time zone	Time zone is a location clue page scripts can read without permission	6

The weights summarize public industry experience; they are not platform documentation, and no platform publishes its risk rules. When the account country and exit differ but are both in the EU, or one is mainland China and the other Hong Kong, they earn half marks.

What Amazon looks at, and what this tool cannot see

The thing Amazon sellers worry about most is linkage — several accounts judged to be one entity and suspended together. Understanding what linkage is built from tells you which problems you can solve yourself and which you cannot. What follows is industry observation; Amazon does not publish risk-system details.

Linkage is built from several dimensions; environment is only one

The factors that come up repeatedly in practitioner experience include: sign-in IP and its location, browser fingerprint, cookies and browser storage, payout accounts, shipping and return addresses, company and legal-entity details, and overlap in listings and copy.

Only the first two are observable from outside. Payout accounts, addresses and company details all live inside Amazon's systems, where no external tool can reach — which is why the verdict on this page is limited to the environment layer.

Account country: stability matters more than looking local

Amazon records the location of every sign-in and compares it with your registration details. China-registered cross-border sellers signing in to Seller Central from China is normal; the real problem is a sign-in location that stays out of line with the registration, which readily triggers extra verification on new accounts or right after account changes.

Worth noting: hopping between several countries usually draws more attention than consistently using one. Risk systems look at abnormal patterns, not just one location.

Datacenter IPs carry two separate problems

The first is that they do not look like a real seller — almost nobody signs into Seller Central from a server rack. The second is worse: datacenter ranges are shared heavily, so your address may have carried many unrelated accounts before and after you.

Residential IPs are safer not only because they look like real people, but because they are far less shared. That is also why residential proxies cost considerably more than datacenter ones.

Fingerprint isolation: aim for natural, not unique

Running several accounts, the fingerprints should differ. But the direction is to look like several different real devices, not to be as unique as possible — a fingerprint combination nobody else in the world has is itself an anomaly.

Fingerprint isolation is something your anti-detect browser does on your side. An outside tool cannot see whether two of your accounts resemble each other — that takes comparing two environments. Nor does it solve overlapping cookies, payment methods or addresses; those have to be separated at the business level.

What this checks, and what it cannot

Every signal above is actually measured

Scored signals use data obtained during this run: the IP profile, comparison of IP and browser time zones, a WebRTC probe, and whether your IPv4 and IPv6 exits are in different countries. Failed requests, missing information and blocked probes are marked unmeasured rather than treated as confirmed types or full marks, and the account-country item is excluded when no country is selected.

One thing we do NOT measure, and will not pretend to

The question that matters most when running multiple accounts — does this environment resemble my other one — cannot be answered from outside. That takes comparing against a population, or against your other environment. A single browser session can only count how many fingerprint signals it collected, and that number comes out much the same for everyone. Rather than display a near-constant in the nineties dressed up as a measurement, we say plainly that it is out of reach.

The overall disclaimer

This page checks your current network and browser environment. It does not touch, and cannot see, the state of your platform account. A clean environment is not the same as a safe account — linkage decisions also rest on history, cookies, payment methods and shipping addresses, none of which are observable from outside. Treat the result as a risk indication, not a substitute for signing in and testing on the platform itself.

Amazon environment check FAQ

The check passed — is my account safe?

Not in that sense. This page checks the network and browser environment only, while Amazon's linkage decision also involves payout accounts, shipping addresses, company details and listing overlap — all inside Amazon's systems and unreachable by any external tool. Passing means you have removed part of the controllable risk, not that the account is safe.

I use an anti-detect browser. Do I still need to think about the IP?

Yes. An anti-detect browser handles fingerprint isolation; it does not change your exit IP. If several environments share one exit, or the exit is a datacenter address, no amount of fingerprint work removes that shared point.

Should the IP stay fixed?

Using one stable residential IP for a given account is generally safer than changing often — risk systems watch for anomalous patterns. But stable does not mean never changing; moving house or switching ISP are ordinary events.

Can several stores share one IP?

That is among the highest-risk practices. The IP is the most easily observed shared point, so several accounts on one exit effectively supply the linkage evidence. If you must run several stores, give each an independent exit.

Should I sign in immediately after changing IP?

This tool cannot give you a reliable answer — whether sign-in timing affects the decision depends on Amazon's internal logic, which cannot be verified from outside. All we can confirm is whether the environment itself is sound at the network layer.

Environment checks for other platforms

Each platform weighs things differently, so the same environment can come out very differently from one to the next. These are the other platforms we maintain a separate weight profile for.
