EP368: H.R. 9799 Would Cap Marketplace Fund and Inventory Holds

Amazon froze your funds for sixty days last year. No explanation, no appeal, and no timeline. You just waited. A bill sitting in the House Judiciary Committee could change that. I was reading a Practical Ecommerce piece from July 30th about H.R. 9799, the Online Sellers' Bill of Rights Act of 2026, introduced on July 21st. This bill aims to protect sellers from fund freezes without due process. I talked to an operator doing forty thousand dollars a month in home goods. He faced a freeze with no warning. Three moves you can make now: separate your operating cash from Amazon disbursements, diversify sales channels, and maintain a cash reserve. These steps are crucial, regardless of whether H.R. 9799 becomes law. If you've been on the wrong end of a fund freeze, you know the data problem underneath it. More policy changes are needed, but proactive steps can safeguard your business. Tune in to The High Voltage Business Builders Podcast for more insights.
