How do we mothball Amazon?
We've taken a decision to stop selling on Amazon after 16 years and will wind things down and switch everything at our current year end which is 31st May.
We don't currently want to close the account and loose all feedback etceteras but neither do we wish to pay Amazon any more for the 'privilege' of selling on the platform, £30 a month or whatever is it these days.
What steps do we need to do to deactivate all active listings and basically stop paying Amazon any money? I think the active listings simply need zeroing out but am unsure how to switch off the Amazon Selling Professional or whatever it was called when we set it up.
Thanks in advance.

I would suggest putting the quantity of each product to 0, so you are able to still keep the listing/reviews etc but the product will not be for sale from yourself.
To stop paying the monthly fee, you will need to downgrade your account and this can be done here...Account info > account management > downgrade account

be mindful of any return/refund liability you may have for a long time into the future!

Just downgrade your account to individual and put it on permanent holiday mode. Remove any funds as and when the monies become available

If you are downgrading and setting all products as 0 stock/inventory then that is ok
If however you just downgrade account then do not forget that Amazon will then set shipping costs and not yourself so you may have to change prices
