When opening a store on Amazon, people usually choose relevant categories. Amazon has popular categories, some unpopular categories, and some special categories that you need to know. What are Amazon adult products?

1. What are Amazon adult products?

Adult products on Amazon generally fall into the category of "sex toys" or "adult sex toys".

2. What situations will be labeled as adult products?

1. Amazon system misjudgment

According to feedback from many sellers, many sellers were judged as adult products because of problems with the Amazon system.

Simply put, Amazon’s inclusion system is frequently updated, and some products are inevitably associated with newly updated terms in the listing settings, causing the listing to be misidentified as adult products.

This phenomenon often happens to swimsuit sellers. Of course, after being misjudged, the seller can modify the category by himself in the background.

2. Product issues

For example, in order to attract more attention and traffic to their products, sellers insert sexually suggestive words in the listing description or title, thereby triggering an Amazon system review.

Amazon once stated that if pornographic words appear in the appearance, packaging, title, and description of a released product, the product will be marked as an adult product.

Therefore, sellers need to note that they should avoid using these words when writing listing titles, five-line descriptions, and product descriptions, otherwise the system will be triggered, causing the product to be judged as an adult product.

In addition, product packaging and display images must not contain sexually suggestive content.

3. Competitors maliciously tamper with listing information

In order to cause problems with their peers’ listings, some unscrupulous sellers will first copy-sell their peers’ listings, and then use some tricks to change the listing attributes to adult products, which will also cause the products to be considered “adult products” by Amazon.

Amazon’s adult products are actually very easy to understand. Products like these are special products, and generally the platform will not allow you to promote them, especially by placing advertisements, etc. Such products cannot be placed at will.
