How To Video:
Step 1: Log Into Your Seller Central Account
The first step is to log into your Amazon Seller Central account. This is where you manage all your selling activities, so it’s essential to start here.
Step 2: Log Into Your Brand Registry Account
Next, log into your Amazon Brand Registry account. If you haven’t already registered your brand, sign up using the same email address linked to your Seller Central account. This step is crucial for becoming the recognized Amazon Brand Owner.
For more information on trademark registration, visit the USPTO Trademark Basics page, where you can learn about securing your brand’s legal protection.
Step 3: Enroll Your Brand
Once logged in, navigate to the “Manage” section of your Amazon Brand Registry account and select “Enroll a Brand.” This is where you officially connect your brand to your Seller Central account.
If you don’t already have a trademark, you’ll need to conduct a USPTO trademark search to find the serial number associated with your brand. For a detailed guide on how to search for trademarks, check out this USPTO Trademark Search page. After obtaining your serial number, input it during the enrollment process.
Step 4: Add Your Trademark Information
On the “Enroll Your Brand” page, provide your brand name, upload images that clearly display your trademark, and input the trademark’s serial number. Ensure the images meet Amazon’s guidelines, such as showing the trademarked logo on the product itself. For tips on taking effective product images, see this guide from Shopify.
Step 5: Gain Admin Access
After enrolling your brand, ensure your Seller Central account is recognized as the Amazon Brand Owner. Go back to your Brand Registry account, locate the “Access to Selling Benefits” button, and click it. Here, you can add your Seller Central account as an admin, granting you the ability to manage your listings as the brand owner.
Troubleshooting Tips
If you encounter any issues, such as someone else claiming your brand or problems accessing your listings, contact Amazon Seller Brand Support. Document everything, including screenshots of error messages, to support your case.
