Now, you need to choose the most suitable method to import Amazon products to BigCommerce:
- Create Amazon items in BigCommerce one at a time or in bulk directly in the app
- Import a CSV file with Amazon listings into your BigCommerce store
Method 1. Create Amazon items in BigCommerce.
M2E Multichannel Connect allows you to create products in your BigCommerce store based on your existing Amazon listings. This is a perfect option in case you do not want to deal with CSV files and instead opt for manual product creation. If you prefer to import products from Amazon to BigCommerce using a CSV file, proceed to method 2.
Navigate to the Listings tab and select your linked Amazon account from the drop-down menu. Use the Quick Search field and filters to find your Amazon items by title, ASIN, or other criteria. To create one item at a time, click on the arrow next to the Link button and select the “Create product in BigCommerce and link” option.

If you need to create multiple products, select the desired items by checking the boxes on the left side of the grid. A top menu will appear – click the three dots and then select the “Create in BigCommerce” option.

The selected Amazon products will be created in your BigCommerce store shortly.
Method 2. Export your Amazon items via a CSV file.
Access the Listings tab and select your linked Amazon account from the drop-down menu. Take advantage of the Quick Search field to locate your Amazon items by title, ASIN, or other criteria. You can also use the Groups option on the right side of the screen to organize and export listings from a specific Amazon marketplace and Product Type.

Once you have refined your selection, click on More actions and choose Export in the top right corner.

Select the specific information you wish to export by checking the appropriate boxes. The selected Amazon items will be exported to a CSV file. Keep in mind that if you have multiple Amazon profiles linked, you’ll need to export items from each account separately.

The export process may take some time. You will receive a notification with the export results in your inbox.
Once you have your CSV file in place, navigate to Products > Import in your BigCommerce admin. Check the import options and upload the exported CSV file.

Verify that the settings for your product data align properly in the Link Import Fields section. After the import is finished, you’ll get a summary of the number of products successfully imported.
Step 3. Link your inventory.
Next, you need to link your inventories on both platforms. Linking helps prepare your products for synchronization and ensure that products ordered on Amazon are always linked to the correct items in your BigCommerce store.
M2E Multichannel Connect will auto-link your products if they share the same SKUs or barcodes on Amazon and BigCommerce. If you’ve previously opted to create Amazon items in BigCommerce instead of a CSV file import, your products will be linked automatically, even if the identifier data doesn’t match. You can skip this step and proceed to the next one.
However, if you have changed the identifiers on either platform since the import, manual linking is necessary. For a larger inventory, bulk linking would be more efficient. Go to the Listings tab and select your Amazon profile. Use the filters next to the Quick Search field to find products that are not linked.

Click on More actions and choose Export in the top right corner.

In the pop-up, switch to the Link items tab. Ensure all relevant fields are selected and click Export.

Adjust the Store Catalog SKU or Store Catalog Item ID in the exported CSV file as needed. Then, import the edited file back into the app.
If you only need to link a few items manually, click the Link button next to the Amazon item and search for the matching BigCommerce product by title, SKU, ASIN, or other parameter.

Watch the video guide for more detailed instructions on linking.
Step 4. Enable item synchronization.
As soon as the items are linked, click the toggle in the Inventory Sync column to enable synchronization. This crucial step ensures consistency between your BigCommerce and Amazon data, minimizing the need for manual updates. A message will confirm that sync is enabled.
