Amazon enforced the ban due to FedEx orders reportedly getting delivered late during the holiday season rush, the Journal said.
FedEx's on-time delivery rate in the week after Black Friday was 92.7%, according to ShipMatrix Inc.'s data reported by the Journal.
At the same time, its competitor United Parcel Service (NYSE:UPS) delivered the orders on time 92.7% of the time, while Amazon delivered 93.7% of all orders on time.
The third-party sellers on Amazon can continue to use FedEx's express delivery service, according to the Journal. The sellers can also continue to use FedEx's ground services for non-Prime orders.
Amazon charges $119 per year or $12.99 for Prime membership that includes free on-time delivery on all orders in the time-frame.
Earlier in June, FedEx ended its partnership with Amazon to deliver its product domestically. The company said it wanted to serve the "broader e-commerce market."
