Create listingsUpdated 25 days ago

Creating listings is one of the most important aspects of the Vendor Portal and being an Amplife® Vendor. Every element of your listing can help customers purchase it. Learn how to help customers discover your listing throughout amplife.co, from search results to collection pages. You can create and manage your listings in the Vendor Portal, sync with your e-commerce platform, or integrate with the Amplife® API.

What can be listed

Products, services, and events are allowed to be listed.

A listing is anything offered through Amplife®. It’s made up of details such as the Title, Price, and Description. All listings must comply with all laws and regulations, as well as Program Policies.

Only the original manufacturer/producer/service provider can be vendors and create listings. Resellers, used listings, and third-party sellers are not allowed at this time.

Some categories require additional approval to list, such as ensuring that you are licensed to sell and deliver durable medical equipment.

General listings are not allowed. All listings must serve the disabled community:

Disabled-Owned

Founded, owned, operated or controlled by people with disabilities.

Disabled-Designed

Created, developed or produced by people with disabilities.

Disabled-Solution

Solves a problem for people with disabilities.

Standard vs Showcase

Unlike most marketplaces, Amplife® lets vendors sell on and off amplife.co. Because of this, you can create an unlimited amount of listings that fit your needs:

Standard Listing

• Transaction completes on amplife.co.
• Receives order information from Amplife® through the Vendor Portal.
• Fulfilled from Amplife® through the Vendor Portal.

Showcase Listing

• Transaction completes off amplife.co by leading from Amplife® to your chosen sales channel.
• Receives order information from the chosen sales channel and receives no order information from Amplife®.
• Fulfilled from the chosen sales channel and not fulfilled from Amplife®.

Selling Plans

Your selling plan determines if you can create Standard Listings, Showcase Listings or both. Learn more about the different selling plans.

Listing Details

All listings consist of details that provide key information to the customer, known as Content, and adhere to our Listing Guidelines:

Title

Your Title is critical in how customers discover your listings on Amplife®. Choose a simple, yet descriptive Title that is easy to spell. Be distinctive by including your brand and identifying information such as “Wheelchair” or “T-Shirt”. A Title can be up to 90 characters long, but we recommend a maximum of 70 characters.

Learn more about Title requirements.

Variations

Your Variations are sets of listings that are related to one another, allowing buyers to compare and choose listings based on different attributes such as size, color, or other characteristics from the available options on a single listing detail page. Each variation has its own Price and inventory/stock information, such as Stock Keeping Unit (SKU), the unique identifier that defines your listing. Create Variations when your listing has different attributes to allow customers to choose them on a single listing detail page.  

Learn more about Variation requirements.

Media

Your Media is the first and most memorable element of your listing that customers interact with, especially the First Image which is the main image that appears first on your listing detail page and the one shown to customers throughout Amplife®, so it’s essential to communicate your listing’s quality and purpose through your Media. Create Media that helps customers learn about your listing.

Price

Your Price is one of the most important elements of your listing as it not only positions your listing to customers' perceived value, but it's also a comparison factor between competing listings and a major factor for customers deciding to purchase your listing. Your Compare Price is the discounted Price from the original Price. Choose a Price that is fair for customers and is competitive with comparable listings.

Learn more about Pricing requirements.

Description

Your Description concisely summarizes your listing. The first sentence of your Description is the most important because it displays on collection pages when a customer chooses the list format. Explain your listing’s details with the Description rather than with the title. Highlight the key features or how your listing is unique. A Description can be up to 500 characters long, but we recommend a maximum of 300 characters.

Learn more about Description requirements.

Overview Description

Your Overview Description is used when your listing needs a detailed overview explaining the features. Provide engaging and informative paragraphs using understandable terminology your target audience appreciates. Showcase unique and important aspects that customers will love.

Listing Type

As a disabled-only marketplace, all listings must be disabled-owned, disabled-designed, or disabled-solutions. Your Listing Type displays on the listing detail page to help customers understand how the listing serves the disabled community. It’s also used in our search and filtering options to help customers find certain listings. Be sure to select only the Listing Type(s) that represents your listing. We may request additional information to determine if your listing is a specific Listing Type. Choosing a Listing Type(s) that does not represent your listing will cause your listing to be rejected when submitted for approval.

Disability Helped

As a disabled-only marketplace, every listing serves the disabled community. Disability Helped determines which disabilities your listing helps. It’s used in our search and filtering options to help customers find listings for their disability. Be sure to select only relevant disabilities that are helped and not use it as a way to place your listing in front of customers with disabilities that your listing cannot help. We may request additional information to determine if your listing helps a specific disability. Choosing disabilities that are not helped and irrelevant to your listing will cause your listing to be rejected when submitted for approval.

Taxonomy

Your Taxonomy is the listing's organization from Classification to Department, Category, Subcategory, and Group.

Your listing's Classification determines if your listing is a product, service, or event. It’s used in our search and filtering options to help customers find listings that fit their needs. Your listing’s Classification also determines the available Department, Categories, Subcategories, and Group that can be assigned. After selecting a Classification, the corresponding Department displays, which displays the corresponding Categories, Subcategories and Group. After selecting your Group, that Group’s Specification fields are displayed.

Your listing's Taxonomy is critical to helping customers find your listing. Be sure to select the most relevant Taxonomy for your listing. Choosing irrelevant Taxonomy for your listing will cause your listing to be rejected when submitted for approval.

Learn more about Taxonomy requirements.

Specifications

Specifications are the precise details that make up your listing, such as dimensions and weight. Every Group has unique Specifications. Your listing’s Specifications are displayed on the listing detail page. It’s also used in our search and filtering options to help customers find listings with specific details. If this information is missing or incorrect, customers will have a difficult time finding, comparing, and purchasing your listings. Enter Specifications as detailed and thoroughly as possible.

Learn more about Specification requirements.

Certifications & Warnings

Some listings are required to display Certifications & Warnings, such as if you claim your listing is produced in factories that are OEKO-Tex Standard 100 Certified or if it requires a warning mandated by California’s Proposition 65. Be sure to only display certifications and add warnings that apply to your listing. We may request additional information to determine if your listing meets the certification's requirements or if all the required warnings are disclosed. Choosing Certifications & Warnings that do not apply to your listing or do not disclose completely the required warnings will cause your listing to be rejected when submitted for approval.

Learn more about Certifications & Warnings requirements.

Shipping & Returns

All Standard Listings must choose their listing’s shipping method, if it can be delivered, and a return policy. Set your shipping method to help customers complete their transactions without surprising them with the shipping cost. Ideally, offering customers free shipping allows them to make a complete buying decision without worrying about additional costs. Be sure to set your shipping method’s cost or price your listing to not lose profit when purchasing shipping labels. 

All Standard Listings are subject to the Amplife® Return Policy. If you would like to include an extended return window in addition to the Amplife® Return Policy or a warranty, you can add it through the Vendor Portal.

If you would like to use your return policy which has a shorter return window than ours, you can have that listing as a Showcase Listing to fulfill the order through your chosen sales channel.
