Amazon product comparison chart design

A comparison chart shows several of your products side by side with the attributes that differ: size, capacity, features, materials, who each is for. Amazon's A+ Content includes comparison charts among its elements for eligible brands. A good chart helps shoppers who are unsure which version to buy pick the right one from your range, rather than leaving to compare elsewhere. It works only if the attributes are the ones buyers actually use to decide, every value is accurate for every product, and the chart is readable on a phone. Charts compare your own range; they are not a place to make claims about competitors.

This page covers when charts help, choosing attributes, accuracy, layout, phone legibility and upkeep. Check Amazon's current A+ guidelines. LetGetGrow designs A+ content, Brand Stores and listing images and can arrange product photography through our team or suitable partners, with specifications, quantities, production arrangements, delivery locations, costs and timelines agreed in the quotation.

When a comparison chart helps

Charts help most when you sell several similar products and shoppers struggle to choose: three sizes of a tent, four models of headphones, a basic and premium version. They keep shoppers within your range and reduce wrong purchases and returns. For a single product with no close siblings, a chart adds little.

Accurate values

Every cell must be correct for every product shown. Check values against specifications, not memory, and make sure the chart agrees with each product's listing and packaging. A single wrong figure can mislead a buyer into the wrong product. Note the source of each value.

Few attributes, clear labels

Choose four to six attributes that actually separate the products. Use plain labels, consistent units and simple ticks or values. Too many rows make the chart hard to scan, especially on a phone.

Example: a chart for a headphone range

Illustrative example — not a client case study

Situation: A headphone brand sells four models and buyers often return the wrong one.

  1. Return reasons show buyers confuse which models have noise cancelling and how long batteries last.
  2. The chart compares the four models on those attributes plus fit type and best use.
  3. Every value is checked against specification sheets and matched to each listing.

What this shows: Shoppers could pick the right model before buying. This example is illustrative.

Your own range only

Use comparison charts to compare your own products. Making comparative claims about competitors' products raises questions of accuracy and fairness, and is likely to conflict with marketplace content rules. Keep to what you can verify about your own range.

Legible on a phone

On a phone, wide charts may scroll or shrink. Fewer columns, short labels and clear product images help. Check the chart on a real phone before publishing. Fewer products per chart also helps.

Keeping charts current

When products are added, changed or discontinued, update every chart that includes them. A chart showing a discontinued model, or an outdated specification, creates confusion. Keep editable files and a list of charts by product. Review charts whenever a product is updated.

Guiding the choice

A short 'best for' row, such as 'weekend trips' or 'families', helps shoppers who do not know what the numbers mean. Keep it accurate and avoid implying one product is universally better. Base the wording on how customers describe their use in reviews.

Product images in the chart

Each column usually shows a small image of the product. Use the same angle, lighting and background for every product, so differences in the chart reflect real differences rather than photography. Label each image with the product name exactly as it appears in the listing.

Reusing the chart

The same chart can appear in A+ content on every product it includes, in your Brand Store and on your website. Keep one master version so updates flow everywhere.
