Background of the Authorized Seller Program
Product takedown is only one of our methods to combat IP infringement. We are aware that sellers sometimes sell counterfeit products simply because they are lacking information of the product source and original product acquisition method.
Therefore, we've come up with the idea of combating and reducing the number of counterfeit products and enhancing your market coverage through the Authorized Seller Program (part of the Brand Alliance Program), which Tokopedia will encourage Sellers to become authorized resellers of your brand.
Authorized Seller Program (ASP)
Authorized Seller Program is a reach out program provided for IP Holder to develop their authorized seller network in Tokopedia platform.
This program provides Tokopedia customers with more merchants that sell legitimate products and create a safer marketplace ecosystem.
This program is formed as an offering message (to seller) of Authorized Seller Program, containing a PIC info of the IP Holder.
Authorized Seller Program Flow
Two simple ways of Authorized Seller Program
This program takes the form of an offering message (to the seller whose product is reported) to become an authorized seller, containing an active email and PIC name of the brand owner's side. By joining this program, brand owners are required to provide contact person (active email and PIC name) to be potentially contacted by sellers who want to join/ask about this program.
This program is formed in two ways which are divided based on its distribution policy, namely:
