Many sellers sell their products across different platforms and in multiple countries. Use this article to find out how many A2X connections you would need.
There is no limit to the number of connections within your A2X account.
Selling on multiple Amazon marketplaces?
Most sellers will need one A2X connection per region, and this connection will cover all of the marketplaces in this region. You can think of regions as North America (covering the United States, Canada, and Mexico), United Kingdom/Europe (covering the UK and all EU marketplaces), etc.
A2X will connect to your Amazon Seller Central. One A2X connection will bring through all of the data for each of the marketplaces in that region.
This applies to all plans, except the mini-plan that allows just one marketplace.
For example, if you're selling on .com & .ca, all of the data for both regions will come through the one A2X connection. If you’re selling on .uk & .de & .fr, all of these regions will come through the one A2X connection. When you're setting up this connection, you just choose whichever marketplace is your primary marketplace, and then the data for all marketplaces will flow into A2X.
If you're selling on .uk & .com, you would need two A2X connections, one covering the UK/EU and one covering North America.
This also applies to the Asia Pacific and the Middle East, but sometimes these accounts are structured differently. In principle, you should only need one A2X connection that will cover all Asia Pacific countries; however, due to the way the data is structured, some sellers need separate connections for different countries (i.e., Japan or Australia). The easiest way to find out how many connections you'd need in these regions is to connect to A2X and see what data can be fetched.

Different Amazon accounts for different brands.
Suppose you have multiple Amazon logins for different Amazon accounts, for example. If you have different brands sold under different Amazon Seller Central Accounts, you will need a separate connection for each of these Seller Accounts.
Amazon terminology
You will need an A2X account for each Amazon Merchant ID. An Amazon Account is a single login to Amazon Seller Central; it represents one Amazon Merchant. An Amazon Merchant can sell on one or more Amazon marketplace using their Amazon account. More about accounts, merchants, and regions here.
