Ever watched a counterfeit product steal your sales while you helplessly stood by? Amazon's marketplace is a goldmine of opportunity—and a battlefield for brand protection. With millions of sellers competing for attention, protecting your intellectual property has never been more crucial.
What Is Amazon Brand Registry?
What Is Amazon Brand Registry?
Amazon Brand Registry is a suite of tools designed to help legitimate brand owners protect their registered trademarks, control product listings, and create enhanced brand experiences on Amazon. Launched in its current form in 2017, this program has become an essential shield for businesses of all sizes.
Why Your Brand Needs Protection
Why Your Brand Needs Protection
Picture this: You've spent years perfecting your product, designing beautiful packaging, and building customer trust. Then suddenly, knock-offs flood the marketplace—using your images, undercutting your prices, and delivering inferior products that damage your reputation.
Sound familiar? You're not alone.
In 2023, Amazon blocked over 4 million attempted bad actor accounts before they could list a single product. The battle against counterfeits is real, and Brand Registry is your strongest weapon.

Taking Action: Beyond Brand Registry
Taking Action: Beyond Brand Registry
While Brand Registry is powerful, a comprehensive brand protection strategy includes:
- Regular monitoring - Schedule weekly searches for potential infringements
- Trademark vigilance - Consider registering variations of your brand name and logo
- Customer education - Help buyers identify authentic products through packaging, inserts, and brand elements
- Expansion planning - Register trademarks in countries where you plan to sell before counterfeiters beat you to it
Is It Worth It?
Is It Worth It?
Absolutely. The cost of trademark registration pales in comparison to lost sales and brand damage from counterfeits. Plus, the enhanced content capabilities often lead to higher conversion rates—some brands report 10-15% increases after implementing A+ Content.
