Some details may be confusing for you; let me quickly take each of these points for each Marketplace to bring more clarity.
Bank Account Verification:
A small amount is transferred to your bank account for Flipkart once you enter your account details. A seller must verify his bank account by entering the exact transferred amount on the seller panel.
Store Details:
A seller must choose his unique store name and details; the same is seen on the buyer panel. Please select a unique store name; if any of the store names are used by other sellers, Marketplace will prompt you to enter a different store name.
The unique store name is applicable on Amazon too.
