In-person registration is $599 (discounted to $499 until July 14 at 11:59 p.m. (PT)) and offers exclusive programming and experiences including networking events, access to the Accelerate Pavilion, interactive workshops, and one-on-one appointments with Amazon subject matter experts.

Virtual conference registration is free and open to all. All General Sessions and a select number of Breakout Sessions, will be streamed live for virtual attendees.

Amazon uses Merchant Tokens to identify and authenticate selling partner accounts. Selling partners must have an active Merchant Token and an account that's in good standing to be eligible to attend Amazon Accelerate in person. Although selling partners will receive a registration verification confirmation email after registering for in-person attendance, Amazon reserves the right to re-validate any selling partners' Merchant Token at any point to confirm in-person eligibility.
