Amazon jargon

Get familiar with key concepts we use to organize and support pricing.
Featured Offer: An offer for a product that Amazon displays on the product detail page with an add to cart button. To compete for the Featured Offer, a seller must set a competitive price and have a Professional selling plan. The product also needs to be in new condition.

Lowest Amazon price: The lowest price currently offered by a seller in the Amazon store. We share the current lowest Amazon price to give sellers who list a product to the opportunity to match or beat it.

Competitive external price: The lowest price for an item from major retailers outside Amazon. We share competitive external prices with sellers. For your own price to be considered competitive, your standard item price, plus shipping, must be less than or equal to the competitive external price.
