Getting Started Guide for listing your Product Ads on Junglee.com

  1. Setting up your account on Seller Central

   1.1. Check and confirm your business and legal name

           During the registration process you are asked to provide both your business name (which will be
           shown on the Junglee.com web site) and your legal name and address, which is stored in your account for
           Amazon’s reference. If you are a registered company, it is important to use the exact name and address
           under which you are registered.
           You can change this information on the “Account Info” page under the “Settings” tab in Seller Central.
           Business names must be within 40 characters and should be same as your website name.
           Eg: Cribsncradles.com.
           Please provide Account/Legal name in proper case with the first letter of every alphabet being a capital.
           Please do not enter information in ALL CAPS.                                                [Learn More]

   1.2. Provide customer support e-mail ID and customer support number

           Customer support phone number: Post launch, all your product ads will show your customer support phone
           number on the offer page. Provide your customer service phone number with a valid STD code as availability
           to manage customer queries or concerns is imperative in creating a good experience.
                The customer support phone numbers must be provided in the format (STD code)8-digit landline
                   number or (0)10-digit mobile number. Example: (080)12345678 or (0)1234567890

           Customer support e-mail ID: This is a critical bit of information and will be displayed under ‘Seller Info’ on all
           your product ads live on Junglee.com. Your email ID and rest of the details will be displayed under ‘Seller
           Info’. Please ensure you provide a valid customer support e-mail ID that gets undivided attention because:
                  Amazon highly encourages their users to ‘Rate the Seller’ and these ratings/comments are mailed to
                     the e-mail ID you provide under ‘Customer service e-mail’. So, kindly ensure you are giving the
                     correct e-mail IDs.

   1.3. Upload a good quality seller logo

           Seller logo is your main identity on Junglee.com and all your listings will show your logo on the offer page. A
           legible, quality seller log on a white background must be provided. This logo should be up to date with the
           logo displayed on your website. A good, legible logo creates a higher impact on the user than a blurred,
           pixelated logo. Animated gifs are not allowed.
                 120pixels-width by 30pixels-height in formats .gif or .jpg.                            [Learn More]

                                    Good Seller Logo

                                    Good Seller Logo

                                X Logo with white background, but not as standing-out as the 1st logo.
                                X Not a very legible logo & importantly, not on white background. Most logos
                                     have a reversed colour combination to be able to reflect well upon white
                                     backgrounds which should be uploaded. Ask your web designer.

                                                                    6
Getting Started Guide for listing your Product Ads on Junglee.com

  1.4. Enter Email Notification Preferences

            Notifications keep you up to date on the most important events involving your account. Our email
            notifications are an easy and efficient way for you to get information about your account activity.
            You can ensure these notifications reach the correct person by providing one or multiple email IDs for
            each type of notification. With these preferences, you can receive information regularly about issues
            such as content violations, product listing suspensions and feed upload errors.
            You can set up your preferences on the “Notification Preferences” page under “Settings”           [Learn More]

  1.5. Set your shipping rates

  Accurate shipping information is critical for a good customer experience. You can set your shipping prices on the
  “Shipping Settings” page under the “Settings” tab. You can set-up your shipping rate based on these different
  shipping price structures:-
            Setting account level shipping rates on seller central
                  I charge a flat per shipment fee
                         o Example: Your shipping rate is a flat rate. Rs. 0 (Free Shipping) or Rs. 100 (irrespective of the
                             cart value of the customer.)
                  I charge different per shipment fees depending on the total item price
                         o Example: Your shipping rate differs with respect to the cart value, in price bands.
                                  For items totaling Rs. 0 to Rs. 1000 = you charge Rs. 70
                                  For items Totaling Rs. 1001 and Up = you charge Rs. 0 (Free Shipping)

             You can also set SKU/Individual product level shipping rates on the ‘Feed Template’
                 Recommended only if you calculate shipping rate differently for every SKU.         [Learn More]

  Important Note: What happens if you do not set shipping rates on either Seller Central or on the Feed Template?
        X    In spite of providing competent price and good quality content, your listing will be displayed at the bottom
             most slot of the offer page under all other seller offers.
        X    More importantly, you will lose out on all the probably targeted traffic to your website due to this major
             error.
        X    Your offer may get suspended if there is a mis-match in the shipping rate on Junglee.com and your website.

  1.6. Configure User Permissions

  User permission means providing team members with their own access to seller central and not having to share your
  login credentials. This feature also lets you assign permissions to each user you have invited to your account. By
  inviting users into the system and then configuring their permissions, you are assured that the appropriate user
  accounts are linked to the right owners, and that the correct permissions apply to the intended users.

                                                                    7
Getting Started Guide for listing your Product Ads on Junglee.com

             You can invite users and configure their permissions on “User Permissions” under the “Settings tab”
               Your analytics team could get permission only to certain sections where they can access reports etc.
               Your catalog team could get access only to uploading, deleting, managing price and stock refresh of
                  products etc.

             This also helps in removing large scale dependency on the account owner to share their login credentials or
             manage account on behalf of their team members.                                             [Learn More]

  1.7. Set up your information and policies

  This section under Seller Central is intended to capture all the information about your offering, your shipping,
  returns and refund policies. We will display this information under the link ‘Seller Info’ on all your product ad
  listings and hence it is very important that you provide information and keep this section updated.

  Note: A lot of our users analyze the information provided under ‘Seller Info’ and then decide to choose the seller
  they want to visit.

             You can provide this information on “Your Info & Policies” page under the “Settings” tab.
             Please copy-paste information as displayed on your website. For best results, copy the information to a
             notepad and then copy from there onto Seller Central.
             Please fill up the information for the below sections:
                 o   About Seller
                 o   Returns and Refunds
                 o   Shipping rates and policies
                 o   FAQ
                 o   Privacy Policy

  Note: Please bear in mind that you are responsible for complying with all applicable laws with respect to both
  your listings as well as the information displayed in your Seller Profile. Hyperlinks and URLS are not allowed in this
  section.                                                                                               [Learn More]

                                                                    8
Getting Started Guide for listing your Product Ads on Junglee.com

  2. Choose the best feed creation method

   Feed creation is the process of creating your catalog on the Junglee.com. Before adding your products, you will need
   to download the Category specific templates and browse tree guides.                                [Download Link]

        Category Templates are Excel sheets where you would be entering your product details in order to list them
         on Junglee.com. They have the below four tabs:
             o Overview: Please go through this to understand the steps involved.
             o Attribute Definitions: Please go through this to understand the data requirements.
             o Feed Template: This is the master template where you would be providing your catalog information
                 in the Junglee.com specific format
             o Valid Values: Please go through this tab to understand the valid values accepted in certain columns.
                 For these columns, any value other than the list of valid values will be rejected by the system.

        Browse Tree Guide is an excel sheet containing ‘Node Ids’ for every category navigation path on
         Junglee.com.
          o Every template link has an adjacent browse tree guide link. Please click on it to begin the download.
          o You will use this document to inform exactly which category and sub category you would be placing your
             products under. Example: 824657031 - Clothing/Women/Sari

    There are two methods to create your Product Ad Listings.
                 2.1. Creating your listings manually
                 2.2. Creating your listings by Importing File.

  2.1. Creating your listings manually

   If you want to list only few products (less than 50), you can add them manually using the Product Ads template
   downloaded from the above page. Make sure you follow the instructions provided in the “Attribute Definitions”
   tab.                                                                                           [Learn More]

  2.2. Creating your listings by Importing File

   If you wish to list a larger number of products (more than 50), we recommend you use the Import File macro on our
   Product Ads Excel Template. This feature enables you to import product data from any of your product catalog
   extracted from your e-commerce platform’s Admin Panel. Some examples of e-commerce platforms would be
   Magento, Martjack, OS Commerce etc.

   Detailed instructions provided further in the document.                                            [Learn More]

  2.2.1. After downloading the Category Template file, open the excel file and enable macros

            o   For Excel 2003: http://jeeshenlee.wordpress.com/2010/09/25/how-to-enable-macro-in-excel-2003/

 2.2.2. Understanding and using the macros on Junglee.com Feed Templates

   Once you enable macros, you will see an option called ‘Add-Ins’ on the top panel of your excel sheet.

             Under Add-Ins, you will find:
                 o Validate – Once all the information has been provided as per the formats mentioned under
                     ‘Attribute Definitions’, click on Validate to do the 1st round of Quality-Check. Any obvious format
                     related errors will be highlighted in red with information on how to correct the same.
                 o Import File – This is a macro that lets you import information from your offline excel, csv or xml
                     reports into the Junglee Feed Template.

             This is especially designed for sellers who would like to automate the Junglee.com Feed creation
              process.

  Understanding the in-flow of information

  The displayed image below shows the anatomy of information in-flow into Junglee.com Offer page. This is an
  overview and details are provided further down in the document.

  Here, it is important to note that, you own the content showing on the offer page and hence is your responsibility to
  provide quality content as per our guidelines.

                                                                    11

  3. Providing the product information as per our guidelines

  On Junglee.com, each product has its own page with detailed information, customer reviews, seller ratings, sellers
  listing that product and more. We call this a Product Detail Page. When you add your own product information on
  Junglee.com, this information will appear on the Product Detail Page.

  3.1. Barcode requirements

  We highly recommend and prefer barcodes as it helps us improve your search results as well as map your products
  to our existing listings. Barcodes consist of only numbers without any space. If you do not have barcodes for your
  products, you should ask the manufacturer/distributor of your products to provide you with barcodes.

             FAQs for UPCs                            [Learn More]
             Improve your search results              [Learn More]

        UPC (Universal Product Code) – a 12 digit US-American standard code.
        EAN (European Article Number) – a 13 digit European standard code.
        ISBN (International Standard Book Number) – a 10 or 13 digit International standard code for books.

  However, if you do not have the barcodes, you could still proceed with the product listings (Refer Section 3.2.4).
  However, getting your listings live will be comparatively delayed and may not be mapped to existing products on
  Junglee.com unless we manually merge them, hence stand a chance of becoming an isolated offer.

            ISBN 13 digit                                      UPC 12 digit                             EAN 13 digit

  3.2 Mandatory fields

      o Title: Title of the product must be comprehensive and must contain important keywords such as brand name,
           model number, gender, product type, colour etc. Words in the title are searchable by default.
                Your product titles are essential to helping customers discover your products and should describe your products as
                 concisely as possible.
            X    Do not include offer-related information in the product title (i.e. pricing, promotion, name of the shop etc.).
                Good Product Title Schema: [Brand]+[ ModelNumber]+[Size]+[Product Description]+[Defining Features]

                   Tefal Aquaspeed FV5260 Self Clean                 Good Product Title- In the recommended format and
                   Continuous Steam Iron, 2400 Watts                 contains all the important ‘search terms’
                                                                     Bad Product Title- ALL CAPS is considered bad style.
                   TEFAL FV5260 STEAM IRON / BRAND
                                                                     Product Name should not include price, shipping, freebie
                   NEW - Rs. 390.95 only.
                                                                     or any other condition information
                                                                    12
Getting Started Guide for listing your Product Ads on Junglee.com

                  Steam Iron                                        Bad Product Title- The product name is too generic.

   o    SKU: SKU is an alphanumeric value that should be assigned to every product ad you wish to list on Junglee.
            These values should be unique and the same SKU value cannot repeat for another product.
            Must be within 40 characters limit.
            Never upload the same product with different SKUs.
            Each SKU will be created as a separate product on Junglee.com, hence, for products with multiple sizes
               or colours, you have to treat each variation of the product as a different SKU.
               Example: Hawaii Black Men’s T-Shirt has sizes S, M, L, and XL.
                          These should be provided as 4 different SKUs and each SKU value has to be unique

    o Link: Ensure that the link provided is the correct product landing page URL. Wrong URLs will re-direct users to a
       wrong page or worse, our policing teams will suspend the SKU for a wrong or non-functional URL.

    o Price: This is the final offer/selling price of the product. Price of the product must be exactly the same as
       reflected on your website. This price must be inclusive of VAT on your site as well as on your Junglee.com
       listing.
         Example- If MRP is 1000 and you’re selling Product X for 800, Price=800

    o Recommended Browse Node: Provide a ‘Node Id’ indicating the product’s correct category/sub- category. Node
        Ids are available in the Browse Tree Guide file.                                                       [Link to download]
           One key to successful listing on Junglee.com is properly categorizing your products, so that customers
              find them when browsing. You can do so by assigning browse nodes to your products. These define the
              places within the Junglee.com website where your products will be displayed.
           Think of the browse node as an aisle and shelf in a store. If a product is in the wrong aisle on the wrong
              shelf, it is unlikely to be found and purchased by the customer.
                Example of how the Browse Tree Guide file looks:

                        Node ID                               Node Path
                        824657031                             Clothing/Women/Saris

    o Delivery Time: You will have to choose the numeric option that suits your Estimated Delivery time. Delivery time
      should include the lead time to ship + the shipping time.
        1= 1-3 days ; 2= 4-7 days ; 3= 7-14 days ; 4= More than 14 days

    o Availability: Please mention TRUE to mark your SKU in-stock and FALSE to mark your SKU, Out of stock.

    o Product Description and Bullet Points: The bullet points must be brief descriptive text to catch the buyer's
       interest, while the product description should be the content that thoroughly describes your product. This
       information is very important for potential customers to make a buying decision.
         X Offer-related information (price, shipping, special offer, etc.) is not allowed.
         X Special characters are not supported (high ASCII characters such as ®, ©, ™, etc).        [Learn More]

   o Image URL: High-quality product images allow Amazon customers to discover your products better and drive
        traffic to your website. Our systems fetch the Images using the Image URL you provide on the Feed Template.

                                                                    13
Getting Started Guide for listing your Product Ads on Junglee.com

        Please ensure this is the biggest image you have for your product.                                  [Learn More]

           You can know the Image URL by right clicking on the Image and clicking on “View Image or Open Image in
            new tab”
           These URLs can be either from your website or the link of the FTP folder containing these images.
           Ensure to follow the guidelines mentioned below to get maximum benefit from product images.

        Product Image Guidelines:

           On an average, Product listings that have images receive 8.5 times the click-through rate of listings
            that do not have images.
           Performance analyses have shown that adding a high-quality image to a product's detail page can
            drastically improve the ad's performance, increasing page views by 60 percent.
           To ensure a consistent customer experience on Amazon we require all product images to be on
            pure white background, without text or watermarks. Your images should be well-lit and show the entire
            product where the product takes up at least 80% of the image area. The images should be crisp and
            clear and be at least 500 width x 500 height pixels.

                                                                         Clean, white background, shows only the

   3.4 Additional mandatory attributes to be provided if UPC/EAN codes are not available

   We strongly prefer and recommend providing UPC/EAN codes for your entire listing of product Ads. In certain cases,
   if you’re unable to provide the UPC/EAN codes, we will only be able to show your products on Junglee.com if you
   provide certain additional mandatory attributes.

         These attributes defer category by category. Please get in touch with your Integration Manager or Business
          Development Manager to get the list of additional mandatory attributes.
         These additional attributes are product related attributes, which, in most cases will be present in your
          catalog.
         SKUs without UPC/EANs will take a longer time to process, provided all the additional attributes are
          provided. Minimum time taken is 48 hours. Certain categories in Electronics take up to a week’s time as we
          manually have to merge them to existing product pages on Junglee.com

                                                                    16

  4. Uploading Product Ads Template & Rectifying Errors

  4.1. Uploading Product Ads file to Seller central

  Save your excel in .txt format - Once the Product Ad template has been created, you will need to convert and save
  the file to .txt format and upload it to Seller Central.
        Go to Excel > Save As > Select the format “Text tab-delimited (.txt)”.
        Answer positively to the prompts and save the file.                                              [Learn More]

  4.1.2. Upload Product Ad files manually
        Go to “Upload Product Ads” page on Seller central under the “Products” tab.
        Select the 1st option under ‘Upload Options’.
        Locate your .txt file and upload.                                                                [Learn More]

  4.1.3. Upload Product Ad file via FTP                                                                   [Learn More]
        We recommend FTP Upload for .txt files above 10 MB and manual upload for .txt files lesser than 10 MB.
        The first time you upload your products, choose to upload it manually. If your file size is larger than 10 MB,
           split it into smaller files and upload it manually, so you can read and understand errors, if any. FTP upload
           does not show a processing summary report and hence isn’t recommended for first-timers.

  4.2. Viewing Products and Verifying Product Listings

  4.2.1. Finding the Processing Summary Report

  It can take up to two hours for your upload to complete processing depending on the size of your file and your
  internet connection speed. After the upload process is completed, please make sure that you check the Processing
  Report to confirm that it was successful. This report will tell you if there were any errors. Read the details of any
  specific file errors that might need to be fixed. You can find the Processing Report on the Upload Products page in
  the ‘View Processing Report’ column. Click on the Download(.txt) link.                               [Learn More]

Getting Started Guide for listing your Product Ads on Junglee.com

  4.2.3. Confirming the Status of Uploaded Products:

  Use the Download Product Report page to quickly view all of the products you have uploaded successfully to
  Junglee.com in your most recent data file. From the “Products” tab select “Download Product Report” and click
  "Request Report." Depending on the number of ads you uploaded, it can take up to 45 minutes to generate the
  report. Click the "Download" button and save the tab-delimited .txt file to your hard drive. You can open the file
  using Excel or any spreadsheet software.                                                           [Learn More]

  The Product report is very importantly used to spot the below events:

        Cases where SKUs are Targeted/Suppressed: Column Name- “skus suppressed”
        These SKUs can also be viewed under Products > View Products > Amazon Placement column = Targeted. These
        SKUs are Targeted/Suppressed either because:
           o Targeted- All SKUs without UPC/EAN codes will have the status ‘Targeted’ for a minimum of 48 hours
               after upload. For certain categories like Mobile phones, Cameras and Tablet PCs, it can stay as ‘Targeted’
               for longer periods of time, as we manually merge your SKUs to existing Junglee.com offer pages. For
               most categories, post 48 hours, if the status is still ‘Targeted’, it indicates that some of the information is
               missing and until this is corrected, your offer won’t be live on Junglee.
           o All- SKUs will turn to status ‘ALL’ after 48 hours for most categories other than the ones mentioned
               above, if all the data required is provided. This indicates that your offer is live on Junglee

        Cases where SKUs are Suspended/Blocked: Column Name- “skus blocked”
       These are SKUs that have been removed from Junglee.com for not keeping up to our quality/content guidelines.
       You would receive a notification email every time we block any of your SKUs. The same can be checked here
       along with rejection date (date suspended) and rejection reason (reason for suspending the ad)

  4.2.4 Understanding the ‘View Products’ dashboard

  Products > View Products is a dashboard that shows all the SKUs in your account. It provides columns such as SKU,
  Title, Merchant URL, Price, Junglee Placement:

        Title- Clicking on it takes you to a Junglee.com preview page.
        Price- This is an editable field where you can change prices.
        Amazon Placement- Displays 2 status messages ‘Targeted’ and ‘All’.
             o Targeted- For most categories, post 48 hours, if the status is still ‘Targeted’, it indicates that some of the
                  information is missing and until this is corrected, SKU won’t be live on Junglee.
             o All- SKUs will turn to status ‘ALL’ after 48 hours for most categories other than the ones mentioned
                  above, if all the data required is provided. This indicates that the product is live on Junglee

                                                                    18

  5. Best Practices to Be Successful On Junglee.com

  5.1 Update your price and inventory of the Junglee.com listings regularly
  Your listings on Junglee.com need to be carefully checked and updated for price and stock status changes. Our
  automated crawlers will monitor your website during non-peak hours every day and suspend/remove ads which have
  different information on Junglee.com vs. details on your website. Example: Price of SKU123, Samsung Galaxy S3 is Rs.
  30000 on Junglee.com and Rs. 32000 on your website.

  Method to update Price and Availability:
        Download a fresh Product Ads template from here.
        Provide the SKU value under the column “SKU”.
        Provide the Price under the column-D “Price”.
        Provide the stock status in True/False format under the column “Availability”.
        Select the drop-down option “PartialUpdate” under the last column Update-Delete.
        Save the file in the text tab delimited format by going to Excel > Save As > Select the format ‘text tab de-
             limited (.txt)’,

  Note: If you have a large number of products, then please get in touch with your Integration Manager to explore other
