JB Hi-Fi Brand Requirements
How brand approval works on JB Hi-Fi Marketplace and what to do when your website brand does not match.
Before products can be listed on JB Hi-Fi Marketplace, the brand must be approved by JB Hi-Fi.
JB Hi-Fi uses an approved list of brands, so sellers cannot create a new brand simply by sending a new value in their product data.
Brand approval on JB Hi-Fi
Brands must be approved by JB Hi-Fi before products using that brand are submitted.
If you need to sell products under a brand that is not currently approved, contact your JB Hi-Fi Marketplace Account Manager or Marketplace Support to arrange approval.
The brand used in your product data must correspond to the brand JB Hi-Fi has approved.
When your website brand is different
The brand shown on your website may be formatted differently from the brand approved by JB Hi-Fi.
For example:
Website brand: COASTALFORGE
JB Hi-Fi approved brand: Coastal Forge
If the brand supplied from your website does not match the brand JB Hi-Fi expects, the product may not be accepted.
Differences can include:
- Capitalisation
- Spaces
- Punctuation
- Spelling
- Additional words in the brand name
For example, if JB Hi-Fi has approved the brand as Coastal Forge, the following would not be considered an exact match:
- COASTAL FORGE
- CoastalForge
- Coastal Forge Hardware
What to do if a product is rejected as the Brand is not approved or does not match.
If JB Hi-Fi rejects a product because of its brand:
- Check the rejection or Changes Required information in the JB Hi-Fi Seller Centre.
- Confirm which brand JB Hi-Fi has approved for the product.
- If the required brand is not available, contact your JB Hi-Fi Marketplace Account Manager or Marketplace Support to confirm the brand or range approval.
- If your website product brand needs to be adjusted before Omnivore sends it to JB Hi-Fi, contact Omnivore Support and provide both the website brand and the JB Hi-Fi approved brand.
JB Hi-Fi controls brand and product approval. Omnivore Support can assist with the product data being supplied to the marketplace once the required JB Hi-Fi brand has been confirmed.
