How long do FBA/WFS onboarding and prep take?

Amazon FBA and Walmart WFS account setup normally takes 1 to 2 business days after the agreement, required information, and marketplace connection are complete.

Standard prep turnaround is 72 hours after inventory is physically delivered, checked in, and reconciled. During peak season, from October 1 through December 31, standard turnaround is 96 hours. Large or specialized projects, receiving discrepancies, shipment-plan availability, and carrier scheduling can add time.

PrepFort confirms the expected schedule for large or specialized shipments. Your signed agreement controls any account-specific service level.
