Recently, according to the latest news, starting from 2026, the AM (Account Manager) service on Tuke US site will significantly raise the entry threshold, only open to strategic key merchants with annual revenue exceeding $10 million, or high-quality stores of T3 and above with monthly sales of more than $65,000.

This adjustment not only means a reshuffle of platform resource allocation, but also indicates that Tuke e-commerce business is developing towards a more refined and high-end direction.

Policy Adjustment: Resources Focused on Top Merchants

The core purpose of tightening the AM service threshold on Tuke US site this time is to optimize the allocation of platform resources and concentrate the limited account manager services on high-contribution merchant groups.

In the past, the coverage of AM services was relatively wide, and many small and medium-sized sellers could also receive certain operational support. However, as the platform expands, the efficiency of service resource allocation has become a key issue.

Under the new policy, only two types of merchants can continue to enjoy AM services:First, strategic partners with annual revenue exceeding $10 million; second, T3 and above stores with stable monthly sales of more than $65,000.

It is worth noting that non-strategic T3 and above stores may have their self-fulfillment rights canceled in the future. The platform will further strengthen control over logistics and fulfillment to ensure consistency in user experience. This adjustment will undoubtedly prompt more sellers to move closer to the FBA (Fulfillment by Tuke) model to maintain store level and operational rights.

Survival Challenges for Small and Medium Sellers

For the majority of small and medium-sized sellers, this policy undoubtedly increases operational pressure.AM service was once an important support for many growing sellers, helping them optimize advertising, improve traffic conversion, and even obtain priority recommendation qualifications for platform activities. Now, the contraction of this resource means that small and medium-sized merchants need to rely more on their own operational capabilities to find breakthroughs in a highly competitive market.

In addition, the tightening of self-fulfillment rights will also affect the logistics cost structure of some sellers. In the past, the self-fulfillment model was favored by many sellers for its flexibility, especially those with a large number of SKUs and more complex inventory management. However, as the platform strengthens logistics control, small and medium-sized sellers may need to adjust their supply chain strategies to adapt to the new rules.

Seller Response Strategies

Facing the policy adjustment of Tuke US site, sellers need to quickly adjust their strategies to cope with possible market changes.

First, improving store level becomes key.T3 and above stores can still enjoy AM services, so sellers should optimize operational efficiency, increase average order value and repurchase rate, and strive to reach a higher level in the short term.

Second, strengthen refined operations. In the absence of AM support, sellers need to pay more attention to data analysis, use Tuke Shop's own marketing tools, such as short video sales and live promotions, to improve the conversion rate of organic traffic. At the same time, they can use third-party data analysis tools to accurately target user groups and optimize advertising ROI.

Finally, exploring affiliate marketing and KOL cooperation is also a feasible strategy. The social e-commerce attribute of Tuke determines the importance of content marketing. Cooperating with vertical influencers can help small and medium-sized sellers maintain high exposure even with limited resources.
