Enhanced brand content, commonly known as A+ content, lets a seller add richer modules to a product detail page: larger images, comparison tables, brand story panels and structured explanation of features. It cannot change the title, the bullets or the base description, and it is not available to every account. It is worth doing when your product genuinely needs more explanation, and pointless if you are simply decorating a page that already answers the question.
Understand the eligibility rules first
Availability depends on brand registration and on account and category conditions that the platform sets and revises. Some product types are excluded regardless of account status, and some categories have specific requirements. Before designing anything, check what your account currently qualifies for in the official seller documentation, and confirm the module types available to you. Designing a full set and then discovering you cannot publish it is an avoidable and expensive mistake.
Decide what each module is for
Work backwards from the questions a shopper asks when comparing products. A brand story panel explains who you are and what you stand for, which matters more for unfamiliar brands than for established ones. An image-and-text module can show a feature in use. A comparison table works when it compares your own variants or your own product against a previous version or a genuinely different model, and it must be accurate. Decide which modules solve a real question rather than filling available space.
Get the images right
Modules usually rely on images with text overlaid, which makes a design decision unavoidable. Keep the text short enough to read on a phone, use contrast that survives a bright screen, and avoid tiny body copy. Use real photographs rather than mockups where the product is physical, and do not include claims, badges or comparison outcomes that you cannot substantiate or that the platform prohibits. Whatever the visual style, the modules must remain consistent with the images, bullets and packaging in the listing.
What A+ content cannot do
It cannot change the title, the bullet points, the base description or the price, and it does not create a listing that does not exist. It also does not make a product eligible for a category it is not approved for. Expecting it to rescue a listing whose images, price or delivery promise are wrong is a common disappointment. Use it to answer questions the standard fields cannot, rather than as a substitute for fixing the listing itself.
Write shorter than you want to
Enhanced modules are skimmed, so each line has to carry meaning. Cut the introduction, cut the adjectives, and use headings that state the point rather than labelling a section. Write in plain language aimed at someone who has already looked at two alternatives. If a module needs a paragraph to explain, it probably should be two shorter ones with an image each. Have someone outside the business read it and ask what the product does.
Check comparisons and claims carefully
Comparison tables are powerful and easy to get wrong. Compare only products you actually sell, keep every stated difference factual, and avoid implying a competitor's product is unsafe or inferior without evidence. Health, beauty, food and supplement categories have additional rules about what can be said, and some categories restrict comparison content entirely. Read the current content requirements in the official seller documentation for your category before submitting anything for approval.
Plan approval and measurement
Content usually goes through a review before it appears, and it may be rejected or asked to change. Build in time for that, and keep a record of what you submitted and when. Once it is live, note the date and compare impressions, clicks, conversion and the questions customers still ask over a reasonable period. If nothing changed, that is a legitimate finding: it usually means the base listing needed work rather than that the module failed.
Questions to ask before commissioning it
Ask whether your account currently qualifies and how they checked. Ask which modules they would use for your product and what each one is meant to achieve. Ask what source material they need from you, and whether the fee includes the design, the writing, the submission and the revisions after a rejection. Ask who holds the assets and what format they are delivered in. And ask what they would leave out, because a service that proposes every available module has not thought about your product.
More of the listing work is covered in our marketplace guides. If you want modules designed and submitted for you, our Amazon and Flipkart listing work starts at INR 1,500 per product, with marketplace commissions, platform subscription fees, shipping and ad spend separate and set by the platforms. You can tell us what you sell for a view on whether this is the right next step.
Common questions
Who is eligible to use A+ content?
Eligibility is generally tied to brand registration and to meeting the platform's current account and performance requirements. The criteria can change, so check what your account currently qualifies for in the official seller documentation rather than assuming. Being in a category where some competitors use it does not mean you can, and there is no way to add it without the platform recognising the account as eligible.
Does A+ content improve ranking or sales?
It can improve how a listing presents, which often helps a customer who is already comparing options. Some people assume it produces a ranking benefit, which is not something anyone can promise, since placement is affected by many factors outside a seller view. Treat it as a presentation improvement and judge it on whether the metrics you care about change over a fair period.
How long does A+ content take to produce?
It depends on how much source material you have, whether images and copy already exist, and whether the content needs to be approved before it appears. A few images and a brand story may be quick; a full set of comparison modules across many products takes longer and usually needs several rounds of review. Agree the modules and the revision rounds in writing before work starts.
