You can work with Ozon under two schemes:
- FBP scheme for selling from Ozon partner warehouses.
- realFBS scheme for selling from your warehouse with delivery by any third-party carriers.
You can work under one scheme or use both of them at the same time. For example, if you have a large product range and some products are prohibited for sale under the FBP scheme, use the realFBS scheme. To do this, enable another scheme in your personal account.
