The Problem It Solves
Unauthorized resellers actively undermine brands on Amazon by:- Hijacking the Buy Box (Amazon now calls it the Featured Offer)
- Undercutting MAP prices (see the MAP enforcement guide)
- Creating duplicate listings with poor content
- Shipping expired, damaged, or counterfeit goods to customers
How the System Works
Four automated, escalating steps:- 24/7 AI Buy Box Monitoring - OBG’s technology scans your listings every minute of every day. The moment an unauthorized seller appears, OBG knows.
- Automated Cease & Desist Enforcement - the system instantly generates and sends cease and desist notices, removing most violators quickly.
- Authenticity Test Buys - if a seller doesn’t back down, OBG performs controlled test buys to verify whether their inventory is authentic or counterfeit.
- Amazon Transparency Enrollment - for persistent problems, OBG fast-tracks your brand into Amazon’s Transparency program for lasting listing control.

Common Questions
Can OBG actually get unauthorized sellers removed? In many cases, yes, through the documented process of cease and desist, test buys, and Amazon program enforcement. Outcomes depend on your brand registration, your IP, and the specifics of each violator, which OBG assesses up front. Do I need a registered trademark? A registered trademark unlocks Amazon Brand Registry and strengthens every enforcement step. If you do not have one yet, OBG will tell you where you stand and what is possible in the meantime. See the FAQ. Does Amazon enforce my MAP policy? No. MAP is a private agreement between you and your resellers. OBG enforces it by controlling who sells your products and by documenting breaches so you can apply contractual consequences.Pricing
