What Is A+ Content? The Secret to Boosting Sales on Amazon and Marketplaces
A comprehensive guide on what A+ (Enhanced Brand Content) is, how it's used on marketplaces, and how you can generate it with AI.
What Is A+ Content?
A+ Content (known as "Enhanced Brand Content" on Amazon) is a marketplace feature that allows you to present rich visual and text content beyond the standard product description.
While a standard product page only has text and a few photos, with A+ content you can:
- Add large, high-quality images
- Create comparison tables
- Tell your brand story
- Present feature details visually
- Show the product in context with lifestyle images
Why Should You Use A+ Content?
According to Amazon's own data, products using A+ content see:
- 3-10% increase in sales (up to 20% in some categories)
- Decrease in return rates — better informed buyers
- Increase in time spent per page
- Strengthened brand perception
