      How DD+7 works

      Since March 12, 2026, Amazon holds the money from each US order until 7 days after it's delivered. Amazon calls this the Delivery-Date-Based Reserve; sellers call it DD+7. Before that, many established sellers had their money released soon after an order shipped. If an order has no tracking, Amazon uses the estimated delivery date.

      1. Day 0A customer orders and the item ships.
      2. Day 3It's delivered (3 days is a typical example).
      3. Day 10The money becomes available in your Amazon balance.
      4. Up to 14 days laterAmazon sends it in your next scheduled payout, unless you request one sooner.
      5. +3–5 daysIt reaches your bank.

      The money doesn't disappear. It arrives later, and while it waits, you can't use it for a supplier deposit. For a seller at $100,000 a month, about $20,000 is always in the wait.

      Questions

      What is Amazon DD+7?

      Amazon holds the money from each order until 7 days after it's delivered. Amazon's name for it is the Delivery-Date-Based Reserve. It has applied to all US sellers since March 12, 2026.

      How much cash does DD+7 hold back?

      Roughly your daily payout after fees, times the delivery days plus 7. With $100,000 a month in sales, 40% in fees and ad charges, and 3-day delivery, that's about $20,000 at any time.

      When does Amazon pay sellers now?

      Funds become available 7 days after delivery. Then they go out in your next payout (every 14 days by default, or when you request one) and take a few more days to reach your bank. That's often 2 to 4 weeks after the sale.

      Do you store my numbers?

      This calculator works from averages. A full Cash & Reorder Plan uses your real sales for each product, every open order, seasonality and stock-out risk, and shows when to reorder and how much you can afford. I build each plan by hand, for a few brands at a time, at a founding price.
