Luckily there are tech companies constantly innovating and enabling more efficiencies for Amazon sellers. One of those companies is Payoneer, and Ben Stein comes on to talk about their innovations that allow Amazon FBA sellers to keep their margins higher. Chances are you're paying more than you have to for foreign currency wires, international payments to manufacturers, or receiving payments from Amazon.
