- Policy violations can suspend listings or accounts
- Check your dashboard every day
Marketplaces measure every seller. Strong performance brings visibility and badges; poor performance can lead to lower ranking, suspended listings or a deactivated account.
The metrics that matter
- Order defects such as negative feedback, claims and chargebacks
- Cancellations by the seller, often caused by stock problems
- Late dispatch and missed delivery promises
- Policy compliance, including listing rules and product authenticity
Common causes of trouble
Stock running out on one channel while still listed on another, slow dispatch during sale events, listing restricted products, and copying other brands' images or names.
- Check the performance dashboard
- Dispatch every order on time
- Keep stock in sync
- Respond to buyer messages
- Review policy notices

Read the notice carefully, find the root cause and write a clear plan of action explaining what happened, what you fixed and how you will prevent it. Keep invoices and documents ready.
