AMSOIL accounts compared

AMSOIL sells through four account types, and the right one depends on whether you are buying oil for your own garage, reselling it, or running it through company equipment. Personal buyers save the most with a Preferred Customer membership at $20 a year for up to 25% off every product.

Businesses that use or resell lubricants buy at wholesale instead, with volume discounts and free shipping on larger orders. Every account below links to the matching AMSOIL application.

Which AMSOIL account fits your situation

You are buying oil for your own vehicles

Choose the Preferred Customer Program. It is the only account on this page built for personal use, and the membership pays for itself quickly because the discount applies to every product on every order. Start on the AMSOIL Preferred Customer enrollment page, where the membership can be added to the same cart as your first order.

You want to sell AMSOIL products

Choose the Dealer path. A Dealership gives you access to the full product line at Dealer pricing and pays a commission on what you and your customers buy. There are no sales quotas and no requirement to hold inventory, so the running cost is the annual fee. Sign up on the AMSOIL Dealer application, and the Become a Dealer page covers the fee, the starter kit, and the refund window.

Your company burns through oil in its own equipment

Choose a commercial account. Excavation crews, construction trades, lawn and landscape contractors, regional fleets, and farms all buy at wholesale and earn a volume discount once annual purchases clear the first tier. The defining test is simple: a commercial account uses the lubricants, it does not resell them. Apply on the AMSOIL commercial account application, and the Commercial Account page covers the discount tiers, the free shipping threshold, and the approval timeline.

Your store sells oil to walk-in customers

Choose a retail store account. Auto parts stores, hardware stores, and powersports shops buy at the lowest wholesale pricing, set their own shelf price, and earn co-op credit that pays for signage and local advertising. AMSOIL products are not sold through big-box stores or national chains, so the brand stays a point of difference for independent retailers. Apply on the AMSOIL retail store account application, and the Retail Store Account page covers wholesale pricing, co-op credit, and the locator listing.

AMSOIL account questions

Do I need an account to buy AMSOIL products?

No. Anyone can order at standard online retail pricing without an account. An account exists to lower that price. A Preferred Customer membership unlocks up to 25% off for personal buyers, and commercial or retail accounts buy at wholesale.

What is the difference between an AMSOIL Preferred Customer and a Dealer?

A Preferred Customer buys at a discount for personal use and pays $20 a year. A Dealer pays $100 a year, buys at Dealer pricing, and earns commission on purchases made by their customers. Preferred Customers cannot resell products or sponsor other accounts.

Which AMSOIL account is cheapest?

Commercial and retail store accounts carry no contracts and no buying minimums, so there is nothing to pay beyond the products themselves. For personal buyers, the $10 six-month Preferred Customer trial is the lowest-cost way to start.

Can a business use a Preferred Customer membership instead?

No. Preferred Customer membership is limited to U.S. residents 18 and older buying for personal use. Businesses, government agencies, and resellers are not eligible and should apply for a commercial account or a retail store account instead.

Do business accounts get free shipping?

Yes. AMSOIL commercial and retail accounts in the United States, excluding Alaska and Hawaii, receive free standard ground shipping on order totals of $400 or more. Preferred Customers have a separate threshold, currently over $100.

How do I sign in to an existing AMSOIL account?

Use the AMSOIL account sign-in page. Signing in applies your account pricing automatically at checkout.
