What Is Amazon A+ Content and How Does It Increase Sales?

When a shopper lands on your Amazon listing, you have only a few seconds to prove your product is the right choice. Photos and bullet points help, but they rarely tell the full story. That is exactly where Amazon A+ Content comes in.

What Is Amazon A+ Content?

Amazon A+ Content is the rich, visual section that appears below the bullet points on a product detail page. Instead of plain text, brand owners can use branded images, comparison charts, lifestyle photography, and short, focused copy to explain why their product is worth buying.

It is available to brand owners who are enrolled in Amazon Brand Registry, and it is managed through the A+ Content Manager inside Seller Central or Vendor Central. If you are not yet registered, getting your brand approved should be your first step. Our Amazon Listing + EBC service team can guide you through the process.

Why A+ Content Increases Sales

A+ Content does not magically create traffic, but it makes the traffic you already have far more likely to buy. Here is why:

• It builds trust. A polished, consistent brand presentation signals that you are a legitimate business, not an anonymous reseller.
• It answers questions before they are asked. Clear visuals of sizes, materials, and use cases reduce hesitation and cut down on returns caused by wrong expectations.
• It tells your brand story. Shoppers who understand who you are and why you exist are more likely to come back.
• It supports mobile shoppers. Most Amazon browsing happens on phones, and well-designed modules make long listings easy to scan.
• It lets you cross-sell. Comparison charts can guide customers toward your premium model or related products.

Popular A+ Content Modules

Amazon offers a range of ready-made modules. The most useful ones for most sellers are:

• Standard image with text overlay, for hero visuals and key benefits.
• Comparison chart, for showing how your product variants differ.
• Four-image highlights, for explaining top features at a glance.
• Brand story module, for introducing your company, values, and product range.
• Technical specifications table, for products where details matter.

Amazon also has a Premium A+ option with richer layouts for eligible brands. Check which features are available in your account, since eligibility rules change from time to time.

How to Create A+ Content Step by Step

1. Confirm your brand is enrolled in Amazon Brand Registry.
2. Research your customers: read competitor reviews and note the questions buyers keep asking.
3. Plan the story: decide your top three selling points and the order you will present them.
4. Design the images following Amazon's size and content guidelines, using the same colors, fonts, and tone across every module.
5. Write short, benefit-focused copy. Avoid unsupported claims such as 'best in the world' or competitor comparisons by name.
6. Upload everything in A+ Content Manager, assign it to your ASINs, and submit it for review.
7. Track conversion rate and sessions after approval, and refine the content based on results.

A+ Content Best Practices

• Lead with the biggest benefit, not a long company history.
• Use real lifestyle photos and infographics instead of walls of text.
• Keep image text large enough to read on a small phone screen.
• Stay consistent with your main listing images so the page feels like one story.
• Make sure all claims are accurate and comply with Amazon's content policy.

Common A+ Content Mistakes

The most common problems we see are low-resolution images, copy pasted from the bullet points, too many modules that repeat the same message, and content that ignores mobile layouts. If your listing still has weak titles and keywords, fix that first with our guide to Amazon listing optimization, because A+ Content works best on a listing that already ranks.
