    I will not recommend Cratejoy to anyone I know because I had a very poor experience with them. Initially, in my research, I had contacted Cratejoy to understand their platform more. I was led to believe that selling on their 'marketplace' would allow me to take advantage of a lower selling fee. We discussed how I would set up my shop and they assured me that it was done correctly so I would pay the lower amount. It took me over a year to realize I was paying the higher fee, which is about 10 times higher than the lower one. Fees are not listed anywhere in the Cratejoy administrative panels. They are not being emailed and there is no information about them anywhere UNLESS you think to go into your payment processor and look at individual transactions. Clearly, it's my responsibility to look at these things and see why the math is not adding up. However, at the time I signed up this information was not clear and I was given incorrect answers to my questions. I was operating on an assumption that took me a long time to realize and ended up costing me thousands in fees.

    Best suited for individuals or businesses that need a jump start on selling on Amazon. Our company wishes that we found this tool earlier in our Amazon selling career because they know how to find great opportunities. Only good for the one marketplace though--you'll have to research or find other tools if you want to sell on other marketplaces.

    Whether it be their upper management or their customer support crew, they have always acted and treated me like they care. Probably because we make them a lot of money, but nonetheless they do a great job whenever any issue comes up. I even met them in person!

    Cratejoy streamlines the process so there's less to figure out on your own.

    Pricing was the big factor. We were fine sacrificing a larger amount of functionality for Google SEO and others to just solely focus on Amazon.
