On This Page
Most Amazon shoppers never see a brand's Store. They land on an ASIN from search, scan the first few gallery images, check the price, and either buy or go back to the results page.
When a shopper does click through to your Store (or lands there from a Sponsored Brands ad), they are doing something important: checking whether you are an established brand or an interchangeable importer. If your Store is an uncurated grid of your whole catalog in default product tiles, you waste the highest-intent traffic Amazon sends you.
A well-built Amazon Brand Store does three jobs that product detail pages can't:
- Keeps shoppers away from competitor ads. Your Store is your own page, without competitor sponsored placements.
- Increases units per order by grouping natural add-ons and steering shoppers to higher-margin variants.
- Works as a landing page for paid traffic: Sponsored Brands ads, Sponsored Brands video, and off-Amazon campaigns.
Here is the blueprint for a Brand Store that converts: Amazon's image specs, layout structures, and the rules that get Stores rejected.
Amazon Brand Store Image Specs (2026)
Amazon's Store builder uses a modular tile grid. These are the dimensions from Amazon's Stores creative guidelines. All image files have a 5 MB maximum.
| Element | Dimensions | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Header (hero) image | 3000 × 600 px | Up to 30% is cropped on smaller screens (15% from each side) |
| Brand logo | 400 × 400 px minimum | Shown in the Store header |
| Full-width image-with-text tile | 3000 × 1500 px | Flagship product or lifestyle story |
| Large image tile | 1500 × 1500 px | Category hero, routine step, comparison anchor |
| Medium image tile | 1500 × 750 px | Supporting banners |
| Small image tile | 750 × 750 px | Category shortcuts |
| Shoppable image tile | 3000 × 1500 px (full width, recommended) or 1500 × 1500 px (large) | Lifestyle scene with tagged, clickable products |
| Background video tile | 1280 × 640 px minimum, 2–20 seconds, MP4 (H.264) | Short, silent loop of the product in use |
Header safe zone: up to 30% of the hero image is cropped on narrower screens, 15% from the left and 15% from the right. Keep headline text, logos, and product silhouettes in the centre so nothing important gets cut off on phones.
The Mobile Auto-Stacking Trap
Most Amazon shopping happens on phones, but most sellers design their Store in Seller Central on a large desktop monitor.
On desktop, a two- or three-column row looks balanced: an image on the left, copy in the middle, products on the right. On mobile, Amazon stacks those tiles vertically, in order.
Build three alternating image-and-text rows, and a mobile shopper gets:
- Image
- Headline text
- Image
- Headline text
- Image
- Headline text
That is banner fatigue. Shoppers swipe past a wall of static banners with small, unreadable text and leave.
How to design mobile-first:
- Put text and visuals inside the same large square tile (1500 × 1500 px), with copy big enough to read on a phone without zooming.
- Keep the homepage short, roughly three to four phone-screen scrolls. Put catalog depth on subpages.
- Use shoppable images. One lifestyle photo with three tagged products replaces three separate product cards and takes far less scrolling.
4 High-Converting Storefront Layout Frameworks
The right structure depends on catalog size and positioning. Copying a global lifestyle brand's Store when you sell four kitchen tools hurts conversion. Pick one of these four architectures:
1. The Flagship Hero Layout (1–3 Core ASINs)
If most of your revenue comes from one or two hero products, the Store's job is to prove they beat commodity clones.
- Hero banner: high-contrast lifestyle shot with your one-sentence brand promise.
- Section 1 (problem / solution): square tiles contrasting the common flaw in the category with how your product fixes it.
- Section 2 (hero product): a product tile for the flagship ASIN, which shows live price, rating, and Prime eligibility automatically.
- Section 3 (comparison): a clean graphic comparing your flagship model with your standard model.
- Section 4 (accessories & refills): a product grid of consumables and add-ons that raise average order value.
2. The Solution / Routine Builder (Beauty, Supplements, Pet Care)
Shoppers in these categories buy outcomes, not items ("reduce frizz", "joint support for senior dogs").
- Hero banner: the result, not the bottle.
- Subpages: grouped by outcome, not product type (e.g., Hydration Routine, Sensitive Skin).
- Homepage structure:
- Tile 1: "Step 1: Cleanse" (image + tagged product)
- Tile 2: "Step 2: Treat" (image + tagged product)
- Tile 3: "Step 3: Protect" (image + tagged product)
- Bottom section: "Shop the full routine", linking to your bundle ASIN.
3. The Catalog Navigator (10+ SKUs Across Sub-Categories)
Wide catalogs (home organization, automotive accessories) need fast routing.
- Hero banner: clean brand banner with a clear sub-headline ("Commercial-Grade Storage").
- Top row: three or four square category cards (Garage Storage, Closet Organizers, Kitchen Racks).
- Middle section: a best-sellers product grid.
- Bottom section: new releases and a warranty or brand-credibility statement.
4. The Campaign Page (Seasonal Launches & Deal Events)
A dedicated subpage built for one moment, such as Prime Day, Q4 gifting, back-to-school, or a new product launch.
- Hero banner: the campaign theme, without prices or deal claims in the artwork. Product tiles show live pricing on their own.
- Top section: the two or three ASINs you are pushing, as large product tiles.
- Middle section: a shoppable lifestyle image showing the products together.
- Traffic: point that campaign's Sponsored Brands ads here, then swap the page out when the event ends.
How to Drive Profitable Traffic to Your Store
Publishing a Store without a traffic plan means relying on shoppers clicking the small "Visit the [Brand] Store" link under your product title.
To make the Store pay for itself, send traffic to it deliberately:
- Sponsored Brands ads: route clicks to your Store homepage or a matching subpage instead of a single ASIN. Amazon Ads recommends Store landing pages for Sponsored Brands because the shopper arrives in a curated, brand-only environment.
- Sponsored Brands video: run video ads on a category problem, and send the click to the Store subpage that solves it.
- Off-Amazon traffic with Amazon Attribution: when you run social, influencer, or email campaigns, tag the link to your Store with Amazon Attribution. Eligible sales can earn the Brand Referral Bonus, which Amazon says averages 10% of product sales, paid as a credit against referral fees.
5 Mistakes That Get Stores Rejected
Amazon moderates every Store version before it goes live, and a rejection means fixing and resubmitting. Build a few days of buffer into any launch date, and avoid these triggers:
- Promotional language or prices in artwork: "Best Seller", "Cheapest", "Limited Time Offer", "Free Shipping", or dollar amounts in custom graphics. Product tiles already show live pricing.
- Unsubstantiated claims: "The World's Best Chef Knife" or "Doctor Recommended" without support you can document.
- External contact details or links: website URLs, social handles, QR codes, or off-Amazon warranty links.
- Unreadable mobile text: text baked into images that is too small or low-contrast to read on a phone.
- Low-resolution or stretched images: assets below the tile's required size, which Amazon upscales and blurs, or header text cut off by the 30% mobile crop.
Next Steps: Asset Creation
A Brand Store needs dozens of consistent assets: banners, category squares, product infographics, and lifestyle scenes. If every tile uses different lighting, fonts, or colour grading, the Store looks cheap.
