Why This Happens
Amazon may withhold your funds (disbursements) even when your account is not fully suspended. This can happen due to verification requirements, high return rates, A-to-Z claims, chargeback reserves, or as part of an account review. Funds withholding is separate from account deactivation — you may still be able to sell but cannot access your money. Amazon typically holds funds for 90 days after account closure.
Example Notification
"Your Amazon Seller account has been restricted due to funds withholding / disbursement hold concerns."
