Hello @Seller_91izZmS3K3lXD

Christine here from Amazon Forums.

Let me help you with your concern.

Amazon Partnered Carrier:

Pros:

• Direct integration with Amazon systems
• Simplified process
• Often more reliable tracking
• Clear communication channels
• Amazon's support if issues arise
• Generally easier for new sellers

Cons:

• Less flexibility
• May have longer transit times

Non-Partnered Carrier (including UPS):

Pros:

• Often more cost-effective
• More flexibility in service options
• Ability to negotiate rates
• Can build direct relationships
• Might offer faster routes
• More control over shipping process

Cons:

• More complex documentation required
• Need to manage communication yourself
• Must ensure compliance with Amazon requirements
• Higher risk if something goes wrong
• More responsibility for problem resolution

Also, I would like to invite other seller to participate and share based on your experience.

Hope you all have a great day!

Christine.
