How to add products to Yandex Market

This section is about how to upload your assortment to the Market: add products, distribute them by sales models, set prices.

Tip

Some products can only be sold if there are a number of documents. Before adding such products, you need to upload these documents to the Market.

If you don't know if your products require documents, read the article What can be sold on the Market.

What information about the products will be needed

When you add an item to the Market, you will need to provide information about it. Prepare the information in advance, without which you will not be able to download the product:

Title

Customers will see it. Make up the name according to the scheme: type + brand or manufacturer + model + features, if any (for example, color, size or weight).

How to make a name

Article number (SKU)

You will need a unique identifier for each product. If the products already have IDs in your system, just use them. If there are no articles, make them yourself — for example, a combination of the article and the type of product is suitable.

The article is constantly used in work: it is needed for all operations on goods and is displayed in reports. If you create identifiers yourself, make them convenient for yourself. How to create a SKU

It can be edited by changing an already set value to another one. How to do it

Please note:

  • The SKU must be unique for each option.

  • An already set SKU cannot be released and reused for another product — each product must receive a new identifier that you have not used before.

Description

You can accompany the product with a description up to 3,000 characters long, which will emphasize its advantages and help customers make a choice. Do not insert the terms of sale and contact information in the description.

Key and distinctive features

Weight and dimensions with packaging

Weight and dimensions, taking into account the original packaging, if any.

It is very important to specify the exact weight and dimensions: based on your data, the Market calculates how much you will pay for the delivery service. In addition, it will help the Market plan logistics: for example, how much space will be needed in the warehouse and whether the goods will fit in the warehouse. How to specify the weight and dimensions

Keep track of the accuracy of the data

If the actual weight of the goods packed for shipment in a transport package or the sum of its sides is at least 30% more than the packaging data on the card, you will have to pay a fine for this, and the Market will correct your data in the card.

Specify the correct values in the card and select the appropriate packaging.

To see how the amount for the services of the Market varies depending on the size of the product, use a special calculator.

Brand

Be sure to check how it is spelled correctly — for example, on the official website of the brand.

Image

You will need at least one product image that meets the requirements. Make sure that your images match them. View the requirements

The background for the product can be generated automatically using the Yandex YandexArt neural network. Learn more

If you have any questions about other characteristics, see the section Information about products on the Market.

How to add product options

If you sell several versions of the same product (for example, identical mugs of different colors, phones with different memory capacities, contact lenses of different strengths, and so on), add each of the options to the catalog individually.

It will be possible to combine different options on one card later, after adding them to the catalog. How?

How to add a product

You can choose the method that suits you and change it to another one at any time.

Set up integration with another platform

The market offers several tools that help automate and simplify the work with the catalog. For example, if you sell products on ozon.ru or wildberries.ru you can configure the integration — it can be started manually or automatically. How to do it

From the file

If there are many products — for example, dozens — it is long and inconvenient to add them one at a time. In this case, you can enter product data into a special Excel template and upload it to the Market in your account.
