Amazon Badges are created to help customers make a purchase decision. These badges can help increase your conversion rate. Amazon has developed different types of badges over time.
Now the question is, how can you get these Amazon Badges? The answer is easy: you must have premium-quality products, optimized content, and a high sales volume.
This article will discuss different types of Amazon Badges and how to earn them.
List Of Available Amazon Badges
Amazon has several outlooks for granting badges to sellers. Different types of available Amazon Badges are:
- The Best Seller Badge
- The Amazon’s Choice Badge
- The New Release Badge
- The Prime Badge
- The Climate Pledge Friendly Badge
- Limited-time Deal or Deal of the Day Badge
- Extra Savings, Coupons, and Discount Badges
Amazon Best Seller Badge
The Best Seller badge is a seal of approval in the form of an orange ribbon that you can see on the product detail page. This means the specific product is among the top 100 products in the category.
A Best Seller badge is a recommendation Amazon makes based on the following factors:
- The ASIN is no #1 in the bestseller list, and that list contains at least 100 products. Amazon shows these products on top of the customer’s search results.
- The ASIN has a high enough recent and historical sales (exact threshold will not be given).
- The Asin is in a category that is supported. Some categories currently do not receive badging.
Best Seller badge can be removed for a few reasons:
- The item category is no longer eligible for the Best Seller badge.
- The item browsing node does not have 100 products under it.
- Another seller’s offer is now trumping your offer; therefore, their offer is eligible.
Important notes to remember:
- If your listing was previously eligible, it will likely be eligible again; however, support does not have the ability to add the badge back to a listing that is not currently eligible.
- Support also cannot provide a list of browsing nodes eligible for a badge, as this is all run on an algorithm.
- If a listing is eligible and the badge was removed due to a system glitch, support may be able to add the badge back.
- You will need to provide a screenshot of your product’s detail page if this is something you are requesting.

Limited Time Deal & Deal Of The Day
These badges indicate the deals that run for a short period only. They primarily appear on Amazon’s Toaday’s Deal Page, which is most popular with customers. Both of them increase your sales by driving your product’s visibility.
The Deal of the Day displays as an orange ribbon right above the product’s price. It indicates the best deal for a particular day and is selected by Amazon’s algorithm.
The Limited Time Deal is a red (or sometimes grey) banner showing between the star rating and the price. It is usually attached to the products offered under a 7-day deal prepared by Professional Sellers.
Extra Savings, Coupons & Discounts Badges
Amazon adds unique badges to all discounted items. Discount badges appear as an orange ribbon written ‘Discount’ or a green ribbon for Prime members. You can make either percent-off or dollar-off discounts to boost your sales. Sellers may also add a Coupon badge or an Extra Savings badge.
