Selling on Amazon without brand protection puts your business at risk. Unauthorized sellers, inaccurate listings, and brand dilution can all chip away at customer trust—and your margins. That’s where Amazon Brand Registry comes in.

If you’re serious about growing your brand on Amazon, understanding and enrolling in Brand Registry is non-negotiable. Here’s what it is, how to qualify, and how Amify helps brands maximize the value of registration.

What is Amazon Brand Registry?

Amazon Brand Registry is a program that gives brand owners increased control over their product listings, brand representation, and protection against infringement. It also unlocks powerful tools like A+ Content, Brand Stores, Sponsored Brands ads, and more.

By enrolling, brands can:

  • Detect and report counterfeit listings more easily
  • Gain access to automated brand protection tools
  • Unlock marketing and content features to enhance their listings
  • Monitor brand performance and search behavior with advanced analytics

Amazon Brand Registry requirements

To qualify for Brand Registry on Amazon, you’ll need:

  1. A registered trademark issued by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) or the appropriate authority in your country.
  2. An Amazon account (Seller Central or Vendor Central).
  3. Proof that you own the trademark, such as the trademark number and brand name.
  4. A product or packaging image showing the brand name or logo.
  5. A list of product categories where your brand should be listed.

Without a registered trademark, you won’t be able to access Brand Registry. However, Amazon accepts both word marks and design (logo) marks.

Tip: If your trademark is still pending, Amazon’s IP Accelerator program can help speed up approval.

Why Brand Registry matters for your growth

Registering your brand is more than a defensive move—it’s a growth enabler.

With Brand Registry, you can:

  • Create richer content with A+ Content and Amazon Stores
  • Control your brand narrative across all listings
  • Access Brand Analytics to inform product and ad strategies
  • Boost ad performance with Sponsored Brand campaigns
  • Limit rogue sellers and unauthorized edits to your listings
