Having trouble listing a brand on Amazon? Here’s how to fix it (Error Code 6024)
Ever tried listing a product on Amazon and gotten a weird error code? You’re not alone. Error Code 6024 means you can’t sell a certain brand’s stuff (like fancy headphones or name-brand clothes) without Amazon’s okay first. This happens because some brands are picky about who can sell their products.
This guide will help you understand why this error pops up and how to fix it.
Why You See This Error:
Imagine you’re trying to sell a popular brand of sunglasses. But to make sure only authorized sellers list them, the brand requires Amazon’s approval first. That’s why you see Error Code 6024 – you need Amazon’s thumbs up to sell that brand.
Step-by-Step Breakdown
1. Identify the Culprit:
This step is like detective work! Look at the error message you received from Amazon. It should pinpoint the exact brand name and product category causing the issue. For example, the message might say “brand XYZ sunglasses” aren’t allowed without approval. Write down both the brand (XYZ) and the product category (sunglasses) you’re trying to list.
2. Contact Amazon Seller Support:
Imagine Seller Support as Amazon’s customer service specifically for sellers. You can find them by logging into your Seller Central account and navigating to the help section. There should be an option to contact Seller Support, either through chat or a messaging system.
3. Gather Your Ammunition (Information):
Before contacting Seller Support, you’ll need some info to back up your request. Here’s what to collect:
-
Product Type: This is the specific type of product you want to sell under the brand name. Remember our example? You’d mention “sunglasses” here.
-
Brand Name: This is the brand requiring approval (e.g., “XYZ brand”).
-
Proof of Authorization: This is the most crucial piece. It’s evidence that you’re allowed to sell this brand. It could be:A link from the brand’s website listing you as an authorized seller.A document from the brand or their distributor that verifies your permission to sell their products.
4. Request Permission to Sell:
Now that you have your information ready, craft a message to Seller Support. Here’s a template you can use:
Subject: Requesting Approval to Sell [Brand Name] Products in [Category]
Dear Seller Support,
I am writing to request authorization to list [Product Type] products under the brand name [Brand Name] in the [Category] category.
I have attached proof of authorization from the brand (or a link to it on their website).
Please let me know if you require any further information.
Thank you for your time and assistance.
Sincerely,
[Your Name]
5. Wait for the Verdict:
Once you send your message, it’s time for patience. Amazon will review your request and the proof you provided. The waiting time can vary, so be prepared to wait a few business days.
6. Update and Resubmit (if Approved):
If Amazon grants your request, you’ll get a notification. Here’s what to do next:
-
Update your product listings with the approved brand name and category. Make sure everything is accurate and reflects what Amazon approved.
-
Resubmit your product listings for Amazon’s review.
