How to Opt Out of "Amazon Lending" Emails?
Does anyone know how to opt out of just the "Amazon Lending" Spam?
We tried to opt out using the link at the bottom of those emails, but this appears to opt us out of every Amazon email - which would be suicide.
Note to Amazon: if we wanted to borrow back the money being held in our account, we already know where to find that big, colorful "Amazon Lending" display ad (below) on every Seller Central home page:
We think the constant "Amazon Lending" Spam is overkill.

Hello @Seller_xo4Akj7FBBnfC
It would be nice if there was a way to opt out of just the Amazon Lending spam. Unfortunately, I know of no way to do so.
Thank you for visiting the seller forums.

Amazon Lending is shut down!
Amazon will no longer underwrite loans for sellers in its $140 billion Marketplace business
“We regularly evaluate our programs and services, and have made the decision to discontinue term loans underwritten by Amazon for Amazon sellers in the U.S. and U.K.,” the spokesperson said in a statement. “This change will begin to take effect March 6, 2024.”

Per the screen shot below, more Amazon Lending spam was received a few hours ago (and that big promotional link on the Seller Central home page is still active), so it doesn't look like Amazon has discontinued the program.

Create a custom rule, add the lending email address, and send it straight to spam.

booknut7, thanks for that great find.
If you click the gear icon in the upper-right of your Seller Central page, then click the Notification Preferences link, you can scroll down to an Amazon Lending Notifications section and click Edit to clear the Loan invitations checkbox.
Let's hope that clearing the checkbox stops the flood of Amazon Lending spam.
Those Amazon Lending marketing emails ought to provide an unsubscribe link to this Notification Preferences page, rather than a link that unsubscribes you from every Seller Central email, including critical account notifications.

This almost looks like every case Ive ever created.
:Ask question
: Amz rep says : "no possible way"
: Hours/days later, lots of back and forth just to find someone that knows what their talking about and helps.
Thanks booknut!

Despite having opted out of Amazon Lending Notifications on the Notification Preferences page last week, we're still getting Amazon Lending Spam like the example below that arrived today.
Forum admin: please let the Amazon Lending marketing managers know that this does not seem consistent with ethical email marketing practices.
