Overview

Amazon Seller Central allows sellers to duplicate existing promotions, saving time when creating new offers that share similar parameters with previous ones. Rather than building every promotion from scratch, sellers can use an existing promotion as a template and modify only the details that need to change. This feature is particularly useful for sellers who run recurring deals or seasonal campaigns with consistent structures.

Key Points / What Sellers Need to Know

• Duplication saves setup time - Instead of configuring every field manually, you can copy an existing promotion and adjust only the elements that differ, such as dates, discount amounts, or eligible products.
• Title changes are mandatory - When duplicating a promotion, you must at minimum update the promotion title to distinguish it from the original.
• Beware of overlapping promotions - If you duplicate a promotion without changing key parameters like the ASIN list, SKU list, or date range, you risk creating multiple active promotions on the same products during the same period, which can lead to unintended stacking of discounts.
• All promotion types supported - The duplication feature works across the various promotion types available in Seller Central, including percentage-off deals, buy-one-get-one offers, and free shipping promotions.
• Changes must be saved explicitly - Navigating away from the promotion editing page without confirming your changes will cancel the duplication process entirely.

How to Duplicate a Promotion

To duplicate an existing promotion, start by navigating to the Promotions section within your Seller Central account under the Advertising menu. From the promotions management page, locate the promotion you want to use as your template. In the actions column of the promotions list, click the option associated with the promotion you want to copy. This will open the promotion details page, where you will find a button or link to duplicate the promotion. Once you select the duplication option, Seller Central will create a draft copy of that promotion with all the original settings carried over, ready for you to edit.
