# Takedown: full text of the guides, services and comparisons > The full text of every page listed in https://www.trytakedown.com/llms.txt under Services, Platform reporting guides, Comparisons and Alternatives. Takedown (trytakedown.com) is a managed brand protection service operated by Factory App Inc.; it is not affiliated with Takedown.co. # Fake website and copycat store takedown Source: https://www.trytakedown.com/services/fake-website-takedown · Updated 15 Oct 2026 ## TL;DR - Takedown removes copycat stores that pose as your brand by reporting them to the store platform, host, registrar, payment provider and Google. - Nothing is filed until you approve each case. - It also finds Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube and Threads accounts using your name, Meta and TikTok ads using your brand, and US trademark filings that conflict with yours; billing starts at $500 a month, month to month, with the free 360° report. Takedown is not [Takedown.co](https://takedown.co/), the creator-piracy service. - Next step: ask for the free 360° report, or do it yourself with the free [Abuse Contact Finder](https://www.trytakedown.com/tools/abuse-contact-finder) and the [Shopify filing guide](https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/report-shopify-store-infringement). A copycat store copies your photos, product names and catalogue to sell goods you did not make, usually from a domain registered days earlier. A genuine reseller stocks your real products, and no platform will remove it on an IP report. A parked domain holds your name with nothing for sale. This service is for a consumer brand whose customers keep finding copycat stores and that wants people to check and file each one. A legal team that wants to run its own case-management suite, with worldwide trademark watch, is better served by Corsearch or Red Points, a store owner who will file alone by StoreLock (from $19 a month, checked 4 October 2026) or IP Moat, and a bank chasing phishing pages by Doppel, Bolster or Netcraft. ## Copycat, reseller or parked domain Only the first of these has a takedown route. Getting the label right first saves a rejected report. | What you found | Signs | Filing path | |---|---|---| | Copycat store | Your photos and product names, prices far below yours, a recently registered domain, no company details | Yes. Store platform, host, registrar, payment provider and Google | | Genuine reseller | Your real products, often its own photos and its own name | No IP report. A distribution contract, if you have one, is the route | | Parked domain | A registrar ad page or a "for sale" notice, no shop | Usually none until it goes live. A UDRP complaint if the domain contains your trademark and you want it | Our free [Fake Shopping Website Checker](https://www.trytakedown.com/tools/fake-store-checker) walks through the same signs if you want to check a site yourself first. ## What we check Copycat stores rarely use your exact name, so a search for it is not enough. For each brand we look in these places: | Source | What it catches | |---|---| | Lookalike domains | Rule-based and AI-suggested variants of your name on .com, .net, .org, .co, .shop, .store, .online and .site, checked for DNS and RDAP registration data. Our free [Lookalike Domain Finder](https://www.trytakedown.com/tools/lookalike-domain-finder) uses the same approach. | | Certificate transparency logs | New HTTPS certificates for domains that contain your brand name, read once per scan. | | Google search | Organic results for your brand and products that are not on your domains. | | Google Lens | Exact matches for your own product photos on other sites. | | Meta Ad Library | Active ads that use your brand name. | Each candidate is screenshotted at 1440×900 and compared with your real store, and its page text, DNS and registration data are kept as evidence. Your own domains go on an allowlist, so they never come back as findings. A scan runs when one is started from your account. It is not on a fixed schedule. ## Which company can take it down A copycat store stays online because several companies serve it. Each can remove a different part, and none can do all of it. | Company | What it can do | What it cannot do | |---|---|---| | Store platform (Shopify, Wix and others) | Close the store under its IP policy | Touch the domain, which can point at a new store the same day | | Hosting provider | Take the site offline | Suspend or transfer the domain | | Domain registrar | Suspend the domain for abuse | Give you the domain | | Payment provider | Stop the store taking card payments | Take the site down | | Google | Remove pages from search on a copyright request, and flag a site that collects card details under your name in Safe Browsing | Take the site offline. Safe Browsing is for deceptive sites, not trademark disputes | Cloudflare is the company people report to first and the one that usually cannot help. It does not host the sites it proxies. It forwards your complaint to the operator and the real host, and says ending its service is "not normally an appropriate or effective response" (checked 4 October 2026). The [directory of reporting forms](https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/where-to-report-counterfeits) lists who to contact for each host, registrar and platform. ## How it works 1. **Detection.** The scan finds candidates from the sources above and records the screenshot, page text, DNS and registration data for each. 2. **A person checks every match.** Someone on our team confirms the site poses as you or sells copies, and dismisses resellers, review sites and parked domains. 3. **You approve.** You see each confirmed site with its evidence and approve or dismiss it. Nothing is filed without your approval. 4. **Our team files.** We report the site to each company that can act on it: the store platform's IP form (for example [Shopify's](https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/report-shopify-store-infringement)), the host and registrar abuse contacts, the payment provider, and Google. Copied photos and text go in as copyright, your name and logo as trademark, with your letter of authorisation and registrations attached where the recipient asks for them. Copycat operators often move to a new domain. A later scan treats the new site as a new match, and it goes through the same check and approval. ## Suspending a site versus getting the domain A host or platform can take the site offline, and a registrar can suspend the domain, but none of them gives you the domain. If the domain contains your trademark and you want it transferred to you, the route is a [UDRP complaint](https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/help/dndr/udrp-en), or the equivalent for country-code domains such as .uk. That is a legal proceeding with a filing fee, and worth asking a solicitor about for domains that keep coming back or that customers type by mistake. We say when a case looks like one for a lawyer. ## What a case looks like drpawpawshop.shop had [196 Dr.PAWPAW products live 17 seconds after the domain was registered](https://www.trytakedown.com/research/drpawpaw-fake-storefronts), with Dr.PAWPAW's own photos, names and descriptions and balms 65% off. It was one of four sister stores. ## Summary: Summary | | Fake website takedown | |---|---| | What we find | Copycat stores and lookalike domains, from domain variants, certificate logs, Google search, Google Lens and Meta ads | | Who checks | A person on our team, for every match | | Who approves | You, case by case | | Who files | Our team, with the store platform, host, registrar, payment provider and Google | | What it costs | From $500 a month, month to month.

Often, yes. The site still depends on a store platform, a host, a registrar and usually a payment provider, and most of those take abuse and IP reports from anywhere. When an offshore host ignores reports, the store platform, the payment provider and Google are the routes left. ### Do I need a registered trademark? It helps. Many platforms ask for the registration number on a trademark report. Copied product photos and text can be reported as copyright without any registration. ### Will the fake store come back? Some operators relaunch on a new domain. A later scan picks the new site up as a new match, and it comes to you for approval like any other. ### What does it cost? From $500 a month, billed month to month with no annual lock-in. The exact quote depends on the number of brands and platforms, and comes with the free 360° report. ## Sources, checked 4 October 2026 (ICANN's UDRP page on 15 October 2026) - [Cloudflare: Our approach to abuse](https://www.cloudflare.com/trust-hub/abuse-approach/) - [Google Safe Browsing: Report a phishing page](https://safebrowsing.google.com/safebrowsing/report_phish/) - [Google: Report content for legal reasons](https://support.google.com/legal/troubleshooter/1114905) - [Shopify: Intellectual property reports](https://www.shopify.com/legal/tools/report-an-issue/intellectual-property) - [ICANN: Uniform Domain-Name Dispute-Resolution Policy](https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/help/dndr/udrp-en) --- # Counterfeit listing removal on Amazon, eBay, TikTok Shop and more Source: https://www.trytakedown.com/services/counterfeit-listing-removal · Updated 15 Oct 2026 ## TL;DR - Takedown removes counterfeit and copied-photo listings on Amazon (up to nine storefronts), eBay (up to eight), AliExpress, Alibaba, Temu, TikTok Shop, DHgate and Chrono24, through each marketplace's own IP process. - Nothing is filed until you approve each case. - It also finds Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube and Threads accounts using your name, Meta and TikTok ads using your brand, and US trademark filings that conflict with yours; billing starts at $500 a month, month to month, with the free 360° report. Takedown is not [Takedown.co](https://takedown.co/), the creator-piracy service. - Next step: ask for the free 360° report, or file yourself with the [Amazon](https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/amazon-report-infringement) and [eBay VeRO](https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/ebay-vero-report-counterfeit) guides. A counterfeit listing sells goods under your name or logo that you did not make. A genuine item sold without your permission, by a grey-market or second-hand seller, is a distribution problem, and marketplaces reject it as an IP report. A listing that puts your photos on someone else's goods is a third case, reported as copyright, and needs no trademark. This service is for a consumer brand copied on marketplaces that wants people to check and file each listing. A legal team that wants to run its own case-management suite is better served by Corsearch, Red Points or MarqVision, a seller who will file alone by a self-serve tool such as IP Moat (from $105 a month, checked 4 October 2026), and a bank chasing phishing pages by Doppel, Bolster or Netcraft. ## Counterfeit, unauthorised or copied photos The claim type decides whether a report is accepted. Filing the wrong one is the most common avoidable rejection. | What the listing does | Claim | What it needs | |---|---|---| | Sells fake goods under your brand | Counterfeit | A registered trademark in that market (on amazon.com, a federally registered mark), and sometimes a test buy | | Uses your name or logo on other goods | Trademark | The registration number, valid in the country of the store | | Uses your product photos or descriptions | Copyright | Your original photos or text, and where they were first published. No registration needed | | Copies a distinctive product with the logo removed | Copyright, if the photos or label text are copied; a registered design, if you hold one | The copied material, or the design registration. Otherwise worth asking a solicitor | | Sells genuine goods without your permission or below your price | None | Marketplaces do not enforce pricing or distribution agreements, so these reports are rejected | Rights have to be valid where the store is. A UK registration supports amazon.co.uk, not amazon.com. Rejections also cost more than time: Amazon warns that "multiple submissions of inaccurate or inauthentic notices could lead to the removal of your submission privileges", and Project Zero requires a 90% acceptance rate to join (both checked 4 October 2026). ## What we check | Marketplace | What we search | |---|---| | Amazon | amazon.com, .co.uk, .de and .fr by default; .it, .es, .nl, .se and .pl when you add them to your scan scope. | | eBay | ebay.com, .co.uk, .de and .fr. | | AliExpress and Alibaba | Product listings, including wholesale suppliers. | | Temu | Product listings. | | TikTok Shop | Product listings. | | Etsy, Walmart, DHgate, SHEIN and other sites | Not searched directly. They appear only when a Google Lens exact match finds your product photos there. | Name searches miss copies that never mention your brand, so we match on your product photos as well as your name. Your own seller accounts and authorised resellers go on an allowlist, so they are never reported. A scan runs when one is started from your account. It is not on a fixed schedule. ## Which company can take it down Only the marketplace can remove a listing, through its own IP process: [eBay's VeRO programme](https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/ebay-vero-report-counterfeit), [Amazon's Report Infringement form and Brand Registry](https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/amazon-report-infringement), [TikTok Shop's IP Protection Center](https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/tiktok-shop-ippc), and the equivalents on AliExpress, Alibaba and Temu. A letter to the seller can work, but nothing obliges a seller to answer. A factory listing on Alibaba that supplies the copies is a separate report from the retail listings it feeds. ## How it works 1. **Detection.** The scan finds listings that match your name or your product photos on the marketplaces above, and records the evidence for each. 2. **A person checks every match.** Someone on our team confirms the listing is a copy or misuses your photos, not an authorised reseller or a genuine second-hand sale, and picks the claim the evidence supports. 3. **You approve.** You see each confirmed listing with its evidence and approve or dismiss it. Nothing is filed without your approval. 4. **Our team files.** We file through the marketplace's own process, under the claim type from the table above, with your registrations and letter of authorisation attached. Removed listings can return under a new seller. A later scan treats a relisting as a new match, and it goes through the same check and approval. ## What you need to provide - Your trademark registration numbers (UKIPO, EUIPO, USPTO or others), or proof that you own the photos for copyright claims. - A letter of authorisation so our team can file on your behalf. - A list of your own seller accounts and authorised resellers, so they are excluded. A counterfeit claim is stronger with a test buy that proves the product is fake, and some marketplaces expect one. A copyright claim over your photos usually does not need one. The [Takedown Evidence Checklist](https://www.trytakedown.com/tools/takedown-evidence-checklist) shows what each platform asks for. ## What a case looks like On Amazon.co.uk we found [24+ listings for TRIP's drinks that name a reseller as brand and manufacturer, over TRIP's own campaign photos](https://www.trytakedown.com/research/trip-amazon-brand-listings). One seller asked £110.04 for a 12-pack TRIP sells for £24. There was no fake TRIP store. The problem was the listings. ## Summary: Summary | | Counterfeit listing removal | |---|---| | What we find | Counterfeit, trademark-misusing and copied-photo listings on Amazon, eBay, AliExpress, Alibaba, Temu and TikTok Shop, plus Google Lens matches elsewhere | | Who checks | A person on our team, for every match | | Who approves | You, case by case | | Who files | Our team, through each marketplace's own IP process | | What it costs | From $500 a month, month to month.

Yes. You do not need to sell on a marketplace to report infringement there. Amazon's Report Infringement form is for rights owners and their agents and needs a signed-in Amazon account. Brand Registry adds more tools but needs a registered trademark, or a pending application filed through Amazon's IP Accelerator. On amazon.com, a counterfeit claim needs a federally registered trademark. ### What about genuine products resold by others? Reselling genuine goods is generally allowed, so we do not report authorised or second-hand sellers of real products. We report listings that are fake, misuse your photos or misrepresent the product. ### Do you need a test buy for every listing? No. Test buys are for counterfeit claims where the listing alone does not prove the goods are fake. Listings that copy your photos or put your logo on lookalike goods can usually be reported on the listing evidence. ### Do you cover Etsy or Walmart? Not directly. A listing there shows up only when a Google Lens match finds your product photos on it. To file yourself, the [Etsy guide](https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/etsy-ip-infringement-report) covers its IP reporting portal. ### What does it cost? From $500 a month, billed month to month with no annual lock-in. The exact quote depends on the number of brands and platforms, and comes with the free 360° report. ## Sources, checked 4 October 2026 - [Amazon: Report Infringement form](https://www.amazon.com/report/infringement) - [Amazon Seller Central: Intellectual property for rights owners and registered agents](https://sellercentral.amazon.com/help/hub/reference/external/GU5SQCEKADDAQRLZ) - [Amazon: Project Zero](https://sell.amazon.com/brand-registry/project-zero) - [eBay: Verified Rights Owner (VeRO) programme](https://pages.ebay.com/vero/) - [TikTok Shop: Intellectual Property Protection Center](https://ippc.tiktokglobalshop.com/) --- # Brand protection software, and when to buy a managed service instead Source: https://www.trytakedown.com/services/brand-protection-software · Updated 16 Oct 2026 ## TL;DR - Brand protection software searches marketplaces, websites and social platforms for copies of your brand and helps you report them; published prices run from $19 a month for photo monitoring to at least $1,250 a month for Red Points' self-serve plan. - The question that sorts the market is who files the report: you, inside the software, or the vendor's own team. - Takedown is the managed kind: a person checks every match, you approve each case, and our team files with the platform, host and registrar, from $500 a month. - Next step: ask for the free 360° report, or compare every vendor on [the brand protection roundup](https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/best-brand-protection-services). Brand protection software is a tool that finds infringing copies of a brand online, such as counterfeit marketplace listings, copycat stores, lookalike domains and accounts using the brand's name, and records the evidence for a takedown report. It is not the same as trademark registration, which creates the right, or legal enforcement, which a law firm does in court. Most products sold under the name are one of three things: self-serve software your team runs, a managed service whose staff review and file, or an enterprise suite with analysts, investigations and legal partners. This page is for a consumer brand deciding which of the three it needs. ## Three kinds of product sold as brand protection software | Kind | Who finds | Who files | Published prices (read 14 Oct 2026) | |---|---|---|---| | Self-serve software | The software | You, from inside the software | [StoreLock](https://www.trytakedown.com/alternatives/storelock) from $19/month; [Recon](https://www.trytakedown.com/alternatives/recon) free to $50/month for domains; [IPzest](https://www.trytakedown.com/alternatives/ipzest) from $148/month; [Brand Protector](https://www.trytakedown.com/alternatives/brand-protector) $199/month; [IP Moat](https://www.trytakedown.com/alternatives/ip-moat) from $105/month | | Managed service | The software, then a person checks | The vendor's team, after you approve | Takedown from $500/month; [Knockoff](https://www.trytakedown.com/alternatives/knockoff) $799/month | | Platform with optional management | The software | You (self-serve) or the vendor (managed tiers) | [Red Points](https://www.trytakedown.com/alternatives/red-points) self-serve plan $938/month plus trademarks and marketplaces, at least $1,250/month; managed tiers quoted | | Enterprise suite | Software and analysts | Analysts and your legal team, from the platform | [Corsearch](https://www.trytakedown.com/alternatives/corsearch), [MarqVision](https://www.trytakedown.com/alternatives/marqvision), [BrandShield](https://www.trytakedown.com/alternatives/brandshield): quoted on a call | Self-serve prices usually cap something: removals a month, marketplaces, or monitored images. IP Moat's Essential plan is one marketplace and up to 40 removals, and StoreLock adds $0.20 per monitored image. A managed price buys a person's time on every match, which is why it starts higher and is usually quoted. ## What good software actually searches A name search alone misses most copies. Copycat stores rarely use your exact name, and a marketplace listing that uses your photos may never mention it. Ask any vendor which of these it searches, and how: | Source | What it catches | Takedown | |---|---|---| | Marketplace search | Listings that use your name | Amazon in 9 storefronts, eBay in 8, AliExpress, Alibaba, Temu, TikTok Shop, DHgate, Chrono24 | | Reverse image search | Listings and stores that use your photos without your name | Google Lens exact matches for your product photos, on any site | | Lookalike domains and certificate logs | Stores registered under a variant of your name | Rule-based and AI variants on eight TLDs, with DNS and registration data; new HTTPS certificates containing your name | | Social platforms | Accounts using your name | Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube and Threads | | Ad libraries | Ads using your brand | Meta ads, and TikTok ads shown in the EU and UK | | Trademark registers | New filings for your name or a near miss | USPTO applications and registrations in your goods classes | ## Who files decides the real cost Software that finds 300 listings has not removed any of them. Each report still has to be filed on the platform's own form, with the right claim type (copyright for copied photos, trademark for your name, counterfeit for fake goods) and the registration numbers the platform asks for. Amazon warns that "multiple submissions of inaccurate or inauthentic notices could lead to the removal of your submission privileges" (checked 4 October 2026), so a wrong claim type costs more than the time it took. If someone on your team has a few hours a week and wants to file, self-serve software is the cheaper buy. If nobody does, the price to compare is a managed service against that person's time. The [Brand Protection ROI Calculator](https://www.trytakedown.com/tools/brand-protection-roi-calculator) puts numbers on it. ## How Takedown works 1. **Detection.** A scan searches the sources in the table above for your brand and products, and records a screenshot, page text and registration data for each candidate. 2. **A person checks every match.** Someone on our team confirms it is a copy, and dismisses genuine resellers, review sites and parked domains. 3. **You approve.** You see each confirmed case with its evidence. Nothing is filed in your name until you approve it. 4. **Our team files.** We file with the marketplace, the store platform, the host and the registrar, under the claim type the evidence supports, with your registrations and letter of authorisation attached. Your own stores, seller accounts and authorised resellers go on an allowlist, so they never come back as findings. ## Summary: Summary | | Takedown | |---|---| | Kind | Managed service | | What we find | Marketplace listings, copycat stores, lookalike domains, social accounts, ads and USPTO filings using your brand | | Who checks | A person on our team, for every match | | Who approves | You, case by case | | Who files | Our team | | What it costs | From $500 a month, month to month, quoted with the free 360° report | | Pick self-serve software instead when | Someone on your team will file each report, and the copies are on one or two marketplaces | ## Frequently asked questions ### What is the difference between brand protection software and a brand protection service? Software finds the copies and leaves the filing to you. A service has people who check the matches and file the reports. Several vendors sell both: Red Points has a self-serve plan and managed tiers. ### How much does brand protection software cost? Published prices read on 14 October 2026 run from $19 a month (StoreLock, plus $0.20 per monitored image) to at least $1,250 a month (Red Points' self-serve order minimum). Takedown, which files for you, starts at $500 a month. Enterprise suites quote on a call. ### Do I need a registered trademark? Not for everything. Copied product photos and text can be reported as copyright without any registration. Counterfeit and trademark reports usually need the registration number, and Amazon Brand Registry needs a registered or pending mark. ### Is Takedown the same as Takedown.co? No. Takedown (trytakedown.com) is a brand protection service operated by Factory App Inc. Takedown.co is a separate company that removes pirated creator content. ## Sources, checked 14 October 2026 (vendor prices) and 4 October 2026 (Amazon) - [Red Points: self-serve pricing](https://www.redpoints.com/self-serve/) - [IP Moat: homepage and pricing](https://ipmoat.ai/) - [StoreLock: Shopify App Store listing](https://apps.shopify.com/storelock) - [Brand Protector: homepage and pricing](https://brandprotector.io) - [Amazon Seller Central: Intellectual property for rights owners](https://sellercentral.amazon.com/help/hub/reference/external/GU5SQCEKADDAQRLZ) --- # Online brand protection, channel by channel Source: https://www.trytakedown.com/services/online-brand-protection · Updated 16 Oct 2026 ## TL;DR - Online brand protection is finding the places your brand is copied online and getting each one removed by the company that can remove it: the marketplace, the store platform, the host, the registrar, the social network, the ad platform or the trademark office. - Each channel has its own route and its own proof, so a plan that covers one channel well and ignores the rest leaves the copies customers actually find. - Takedown covers marketplaces, copycat stores and lookalike domains, social accounts, ads and US trademark filings; a person checks every match, you approve each case and our team files, from $500 a month. - Next step: ask for the free 360° report, or use the [directory of every reporting form](https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/where-to-report-counterfeits) to file yourself. Online brand protection is the work of monitoring the internet for unauthorised use of a brand, such as counterfeit listings, cloned storefronts, lookalike domains, impersonating accounts, scam ads and conflicting trademark applications, and enforcing against each through the platform or registry that controls it. It differs from reputation management, which handles reviews and press, and from cybersecurity brand protection, which chases phishing aimed at a bank's or software company's customers. This page maps each channel a consumer brand is copied on to the company that can act and the right it needs. ## Every channel, and who can remove it | Channel | What a copy looks like | Who can remove it | Right it usually needs | |---|---|---|---| | Marketplaces | Counterfeit listings, listings with your photos, listings using your name | The marketplace, through its IP programme ([Amazon](https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/amazon-report-infringement), [eBay VeRO](https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/ebay-vero-report-counterfeit), [TikTok Shop](https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/tiktok-shop-ippc)) | A trademark registration valid in that marketplace's country, or copyright in the photos | | Copycat stores | A store with your photos and catalogue at a fraction of your price | The store platform ([Shopify](https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/report-shopify-store-infringement) and others), then the host | Copyright in photos and text; trademark for your name | | Lookalike domains | yourbrand-outlet.shop, yourbrnd.com | The registrar suspends for abuse; a UDRP complaint transfers it | Trademark, for a transfer | | Social accounts | An Instagram or TikTok account using your name and logo | The social network, through its impersonation or IP form | Proof you are the brand or act for it | | Ads | Meta or TikTok ads using your name or photos, often sending traffic to a copycat store | The ad platform | Trademark or copyright; Meta Brand Rights Protection needs a registered mark | | Search results | Copycat stores ranking for your brand | Google, on a copyright removal request; Safe Browsing for sites collecting card details | Copyright in the copied content | | Trademark registers | Someone else's application for your name in your classes | The trademark office, through a letter of protest or an opposition | Your earlier rights in the name | No single company can take a copy off every channel. A copycat store usually has a Shopify store, a domain at a registrar, ads on Meta and an Instagram account, and each needs its own report. The [directory of reporting forms](https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/where-to-report-counterfeits) lists the official route for each platform. ## Where to start Start where your customers are being lost, not where reporting is easiest: 1. **Ads and copycat stores first** if customers are buying from a site they think is yours. One ad can send more buyers to a fake store than a hundred marketplace listings. 2. **Marketplaces** next, especially the ones you sell on, where a counterfeit sits beside your own listing. 3. **Trademark filings** within their window. A US application can be opposed only within 30 days of publication unless you ask for more time, which is why [trademark monitoring](https://www.trytakedown.com/services/trademark-monitoring) is about dates. 4. **Social accounts and lookalike domains** that are live but not yet selling, before they start. ## What Takedown covers | Channel | Takedown | |---|---| | Marketplaces | Amazon in 9 storefronts, eBay in 8, AliExpress, Alibaba, Temu, TikTok Shop, DHgate and Chrono24; any other marketplace where Google Lens finds your product photos | | Copycat stores and domains | Lookalike domain variants, certificate logs, Google search and reverse image search | | Social accounts | Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube and Threads accounts using your name | | Ads | Meta ads, and TikTok ads shown in the EU and UK | | Trademark filings | US (USPTO) applications and registrations using your name, in your goods classes | A person on our team checks every match, you approve each case, and our team files with each company that can act on it.

Finding unauthorised uses of your brand online, from counterfeit listings and copycat stores to fake accounts and ads, and getting each removed through the company that controls it. ### Is online brand protection the same as reputation management? No. Reputation management deals with reviews, press and search results about you. Brand protection removes copies of you: fake products, fake stores and fake accounts. ### Do I need a trademark for online brand protection? It helps on most channels, and some programmes require one, such as Amazon Brand Registry and Meta Brand Rights Protection. Copied photos and text can be reported as copyright without any registration. ### How much do online brand protection services cost? Published prices read on 14 October 2026 run from $19 a month for self-serve photo monitoring to at least $1,250 a month for Red Points' self-serve plan. Takedown starts at $500 a month and files the reports for you. ## Sources, checked 16 October 2026 - [ICANN: Uniform Domain-Name Dispute-Resolution Policy](https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/help/dndr/udrp-en) - [Meta: Brand Rights Protection](https://www.facebook.com/business/help/828925381043253) - [Google: Report content for legal reasons](https://support.google.com/legal/troubleshooter/1114905) - [Cornell LII: 37 CFR 2.102, extensions of time to oppose](https://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/37/2.102) --- # Trademark monitoring: catching conflicting filings while you can still stop them Source: https://www.trytakedown.com/services/trademark-monitoring · Updated 16 Oct 2026 ## TL;DR - Trademark monitoring watches trademark registers for new applications that use your brand name or a near miss, so you can object while the office still allows it. - At the USPTO, a letter of protest ($150) can be filed before publication or up to 30 days after it, and an opposition ($600 per class) is due 30 days after publication, extendable to 180 days in total. - Takedown watches US (USPTO) applications and registrations that are, contain or are one letter off your brand name, in your goods classes, alongside its marketplace, store, social and ad monitoring, from $500 a month. - Next step: ask for the free 360° report, which includes the US filings using your name. Trademark monitoring, also called a trademark watch, is a recurring search of trademark registers for applications and registrations that could conflict with a brand's marks: the same name, a variant, or one close enough to cause confusion in related goods. It is different from a clearance search, which checks a name once before you file, and from enforcement against products, which happens on marketplaces and websites. Its value is timing: once a conflicting mark registers, removing it means a cancellation proceeding instead of an objection. ## The USPTO's windows, and what each one costs An application is examined, then published in the Official Gazette, then registered if nobody opposes it. What you can do depends on where it is: | Stage | What you can file | Deadline | Fee (USPTO schedule, read 16 Oct 2026) | |---|---|---|---| | Before publication | Letter of protest: evidence the examiner should refuse the mark, such as your earlier registration | Any time before publication | $150 | | After publication | Letter of protest | No later than 30 days after publication | $150 | | After publication | Notice of opposition at the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board | 30 days after publication | $600 per class | | Extending the opposition deadline | First extension of 30 days (granted as of right) or 90 days (good cause) | Before the current deadline | $0 for the first 30 days; $200 for a 90-day or second 60-day extension | | After registration | Petition to cancel | | $600 per class | Extensions cannot run past 180 days from publication. After a first 30-day extension you can ask for 60 more days for good cause, and a final 60 days only with the applicant's consent or in extraordinary circumstances (37 CFR 2.102). A letter of protest is limited to 10 items of evidence and 75 pages, and the protester is not a party and is not told why the examiner decided as they did (37 CFR 2.149). > An opposition is a legal proceeding. Takedown finds and flags the filings; whether to protest or oppose is a question for your trademark attorney, and we say when a filing looks like one. ## What Takedown watches - **Office:** the USPTO, through its trademark search. - **Filings:** live applications and registrations whose word mark is your brand name, contains it, or is one letter off it. - **Classes:** lookalikes are kept only in your own goods classes; exact matches are kept in any class. - **Your own marks:** filings whose serial or registration number is on your IP documents, or whose owner is your company, are left out. - **First:** the exact matches and the filings from the last year in your classes, the ones still open to a letter of protest or an opposition. Each finding links to the filing's record in the USPTO's status system, with the owner, filing date, status and classes. A person checks it before it reaches you, alongside the marketplace listings, copycat stores and accounts the same scan finds. ## Why a US filing matters to a brand selling online A registered mark in someone else's name for your brand name can block your Amazon Brand Registry enrolment, because Brand Registry enrols a brand on the trademark registration behind it. It can also give a copycat seller a registration to point to. Catching the application while it is pending is cheaper than cancelling it after it registers. ## Summary: Summary | | Trademark monitoring with Takedown | |---|---| | Office | USPTO | | What we find | Applications and registrations that are, contain or are one letter off your name, in your goods classes | | Who checks | A person on our team | | Windows to act | Letter of protest before publication or within 30 days after; opposition 30 days after publication, extendable to 180 | | Also included | Marketplace listings, copycat stores, lookalike domains, social accounts and ads | | What it costs | From $500 a month, month to month, quoted with the free 360° report | ## Frequently asked questions ### What is a trademark watch? A recurring search of trademark registers for new filings that could conflict with your marks, so you can object before they register. ### How long do I have to oppose a US trademark application? 30 days from publication in the Official Gazette. You can extend that, first by 30 days as of right or 90 days for good cause, but never beyond 180 days from publication. ### What does a letter of protest cost? $150 at the USPTO. It can be filed before publication or up to 30 days after it, with up to 10 items of evidence. ### Do you watch the EUIPO or UKIPO? Our watch covers US (USPTO) filings. For EU and UK registers, Corsearch sells clearance and watch services, and Brand Protector watches the EUIPO. ## Sources, checked 16 October 2026 - [USPTO: fee schedule (trademark and TTAB fees)](https://www.uspto.gov/learning-and-resources/fees-and-payment/uspto-fee-schedule) - [Cornell LII: 37 CFR 2.102, extensions of time to oppose](https://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/37/2.102) - [Cornell LII: 37 CFR 2.149, letters of protest](https://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/37/2.149) - [USPTO: Trademark Trial and Appeal Board](https://www.uspto.gov/trademarks/ttab) --- # Brand impersonation: fake accounts, stores and ads that pose as you Source: https://www.trytakedown.com/services/brand-impersonation-protection · Updated 16 Oct 2026 ## TL;DR - Brand impersonation is an account, store, domain or ad that pretends to be your brand to sell to your customers or take their money. - Report an impersonating account through the platform's impersonation form; report one that uses your trademark or photos through its IP form, which needs proof you own the rights. - Takedown finds Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube and Threads accounts using your name, copycat stores, lookalike domains and Meta and TikTok ads; a person checks every match, you approve and our team files, from $500 a month. - Next step: ask for the free 360° report, or check a suspicious site yourself with the [Fake Shopping Website Checker](https://www.trytakedown.com/tools/fake-store-checker). Brand impersonation is the use of a brand's name, logo, photos or look by someone else to pass as that brand: a social account with the logo as its profile picture, a store at a lookalike domain, an ad that sends buyers to a fake checkout, or a support account that asks customers for payment. It overlaps with counterfeiting, which is about the goods, and with phishing, which is about stealing logins. For a consumer brand the three usually arrive together: the ad, the account and the store point at one another. ## Where to report each kind | What you found | Where to report | What to know | |---|---|---| | A YouTube channel posing as you | [YouTube's impersonation form](https://www.youtube.com/contact/impersonation) | YouTube's policy covers copied profile pictures and banners, deceptive misspellings, and words like 'Official' added to a name.

Impersonation is about who the account pretends to be; an IP report is about your trademark or your photos, and needs the registration number or the originals. When an account uses your logo and copies your photos, the IP route is usually the stronger one. The [directory of reporting forms](https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/where-to-report-counterfeits) has the official route for every other platform. ## How Takedown finds impersonation | Source | What it catches | |---|---| | Account search on Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube and Threads | Accounts and pages using your brand name | | Lookalike domains and certificate logs | Stores registered under a variant of your name | | Google search and Google Lens | Stores ranking for your name, and sites using your product photos | | Meta Ad Library and TikTok's ad library | Ads using your brand, including those shown in the EU and UK on TikTok | Your own accounts and domains go on an allowlist, so they are never reported. A person on our team checks each match against your real accounts and store, you approve each case, and our team files it on the route above, with your registrations and letter of authorisation attached. ## Summary: Summary | | Brand impersonation protection | |---|---| | What we find | Accounts using your name on Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube and Threads; copycat stores and lookalike domains; Meta and TikTok ads | | Who checks | A person on our team, for every match | | Who approves | You, case by case | | Who files | Our team, through each platform's impersonation or IP route | | What it costs | From $500 a month, month to month, quoted with the free 360° report | ## Frequently asked questions ### What counts as brand impersonation? Any account, store, domain or ad that presents itself as your brand, for example by using your name and logo, adding 'official' to your name, or copying your store's look. ### Can I report an impersonating account if I don't have a trademark? Yes. Impersonation forms ask you to prove you are the brand or act for it, not for a registration. A trademark report needs the registration number. ### Will the account owner see who reported them? On Meta's IP forms, yes: Meta shares the rights owner's name and the reporter's email. File from a business address. ### Is Takedown the same as Takedown.co? No. Takedown (trytakedown.com) is a brand protection service operated by Factory App Inc. Takedown.co is a separate company that removes pirated creator content. ## Sources, checked 16 October 2026 (Meta's forms on 14 October 2026) - [YouTube: Impersonation policy](https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/2801947) - [YouTube: Trademark policy](https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/6154218) - [Meta: Brand Rights Protection](https://www.facebook.com/business/help/828925381043253) - [Instagram: Counterfeit report form](https://help.instagram.com/contact/instagramcounterfeitform) - [TikTok: Impersonation report](https://www.tiktok.com/legal/report/impersonation) --- # Shopify DMCA takedowns for stores that copied your photos Source: https://www.trytakedown.com/services/shopify-dmca-takedown · Updated 16 Oct 2026 ## TL;DR - A Shopify DMCA takedown is a copyright notice sent to Shopify about a store using your photos or text; Shopify generally removes the reported content and tells the merchant in their Shopify admin. - A DMCA notice covers copyright only, so your name and logo go on Shopify's separate trademark form, and the notice needs a direct link to every infringing page. - Takedown finds copycat stores on Shopify and elsewhere, a person checks each one, and after you approve our team files the copyright and trademark reports with Shopify, the host and the registrar, from $500 a month. - Next step: ask for the free 360° report, or file it yourself with [the Shopify filing guide](https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/report-shopify-store-infringement). DMCA stands for the US Digital Millennium Copyright Act, whose notice-and-takedown rules let a copyright owner ask a service such as Shopify to remove copies of their work. On Shopify that means product photos, descriptions, videos and other site content a copycat store has lifted. It does not cover a brand name, a logo or counterfeit goods, which are trademark matters with their own form. This page explains what the notice has to contain, what happens after it, and when to add other reports; the [step-by-step filing guide](https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/report-shopify-store-infringement) walks through the forms. ## What Shopify needs in a DMCA notice - **Your legal name and contact information.** Shopify says a copy of the notice, including that contact information, may be given to the merchant. - **Direct links to the original copyrighted work**, such as the product page on your site where each photo was first published. - **Direct links to the specific infringing content on Shopify.** A link to the store's homepage is not enough. - **A good-faith statement, and a statement under penalty of perjury** that you own the rights or are authorised to act for the owner. File through Shopify's [copyright (DMCA) form](https://www.shopify.com/legal/tools/report-an-issue/dmca). If the form does not work for you, Shopify accepts notices at legal@shopify.com or by post to its Trust & Safety team in Ottawa (Help Center, read 16 October 2026). ## What happens after you file 1. **Shopify removes the content.** Shopify says it will generally remove the reported content and inform the merchant through their Shopify admin. 2. **The merchant can counter-notify.** If the merchant sends a valid counter-notice, they will generally be allowed to repost the content in 10 to 14 business days, unless Shopify hears that you have taken legal action. 3. **Repeat infringers lose their stores.** Shopify terminates stores for repeat infringement in appropriate circumstances, and every store the same infringer owns or operates is subject to termination too. A counter-notice means the merchant gives a name and address and accepts a court's jurisdiction, which an anonymous copycat operator rarely does. ## Where a DMCA notice stops working | Situation | Why DMCA alone is not enough | What to add | |---|---|---| | The store uses your name or logo | Copyright does not cover a name or a logo used as a brand | Shopify's trademark and trade dress form, with your registration number, countries and classes | | The store re-shoots or AI-edits your products | There is no copied photo to claim | A trademark report, if it uses your mark; a registered design, if you hold one | | The domain stays up and points at a new store | Shopify removes the store, not the domain | A report to the domain's registrar | | Customers paid and received nothing | That is fraud, not copyright | Shopify's fraud report, and the customer's bank for a chargeback | | The store is not on Shopify | Shopify cannot act on another platform's store | The real platform and host; the [Abuse Contact Finder](https://www.trytakedown.com/tools/abuse-contact-finder) shows which | ## How Takedown files it 1. **We find the store.** Lookalike domains, certificate logs, Google search and Google Lens matches for your product photos find copycat stores, on Shopify and elsewhere. 2. **A person checks it.** Someone on our team confirms the store copies you and lists each infringing page with the original it was copied from. 3. **You approve.** Nothing is filed in your name until you approve the case. 4. **We file every route.** The DMCA notice for the copied photos and text, the trademark form for your name and logo, and reports to the host and the registrar, with your letter of authorisation. Copycat stores often relaunch on a new domain. A later scan treats the new store as a new match, and it comes to you for approval like any other. ## Summary: Summary | | Shopify DMCA takedown | |---|---| | What it covers | Product photos, descriptions and other content a Shopify store copied from you | | What it needs | Your contact details, links to your originals, a direct link to every infringing page, and the good-faith and perjury statements | | What Shopify does | Generally removes the content and tells the merchant; reposting is possible 10 to 14 business days after a valid counter-notice | | Also file | The trademark form for your name and logo, and the registrar for the domain | | With Takedown | A person checks each store, you approve, our team files every route. From $500 a month, month to month, quoted with the free 360° report | ## Frequently asked questions ### Can I send a DMCA notice to Shopify for a counterfeit product? Only for the copied photos or text. Counterfeit goods sold under your name are a trademark matter, reported on Shopify's trademark form, since Shopify has no separate counterfeit option. ### Do I need a registered copyright to file a DMCA notice with Shopify? No. Shopify asks for links to your original work, not a registration certificate. ### Will the store owner see my details? Possibly. Shopify says a copy of your notice, including the contact information you give, may be provided to the merchant. ### What if the content comes back? After a valid counter-notice, Shopify generally lets the merchant repost in 10 to 14 business days unless you start legal action. A store that keeps infringing can be terminated under Shopify's repeat-infringer policy. ## Sources, checked 16 October 2026 - [Shopify Help Center: Copyright policy](https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/compliance/intellectual-property/copyright-policy) - [Shopify: DMCA copyright form](https://www.shopify.com/legal/tools/report-an-issue/dmca) - [Shopify: Trademark infringement form](https://www.shopify.com/legal/tools/report-an-issue/trademark-infringement) - [Shopify Help Center: Trademark and trade dress policy](https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/compliance/intellectual-property/trademark-trade-dress-policy) --- # How to report counterfeit listings on eBay with VeRO Source: https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/ebay-vero-report-counterfeit · Updated 15 Oct 2026 ## TL;DR - To report a counterfeit or copied eBay listing, file a Notice of Claimed Infringement (NOCI) in eBay's Verified Rights Owner (VeRO) Portal. - Only a rights owner or their authorised representative can use VeRO, with a trademark registration or proof of copyright behind each report, and it costs nothing. - eBay will not act on a VeRO report about genuine goods resold below your price or outside your distribution, so an honest reseller of real stock is not a VeRO case. - If eBay removes a listing, the seller is told why and can appeal, and a counter-notice on a US copyright report brings the listing back after 10 business days unless you tell eBay you have filed a court action. eBay's [Verified Rights Owner (VeRO) programme](https://pages.ebay.com/vero/) is the route eBay describes as 'only for rights owners or their authorized representatives', for listings that infringe a trademark, copyright or other IP. This page covers the VeRO Portal report, the DMCA notice for US copyright listings, and the free VeRO participant profile. ## What you'll need - **Proof of your rights.** Trademark registration numbers for the countries the listings target, or links to your original photos and copy for copyright claims. - **The exact listings.** Item numbers or listing URLs, not a seller's shop page. - **Evidence for each listing.** Dated screenshots showing what infringes: the logo, the copied photo, the product. For counterfeits, anything that proves the goods are not yours, such as a test buy. - **Access to the VeRO Portal.** eBay's public pages do not set out the sign-up process in detail. They point you to the portal and to askvero@ebay.com. - **Authorisation, if you file for a client.** Agents act for the rights owner and need their authority. Our [letter of authorisation](https://www.trytakedown.com/services/counterfeit-listing-removal#what-you-need) covers this when we file for you. - **A brand-protection email address.** eBay gives the seller the rights owner's contact details with the removal notice. The steps on this page follow eBay's VeRO pages, checked 4 October 2026. The [Takedown Evidence Checklist](https://www.trytakedown.com/tools/takedown-evidence-checklist) builds the eBay-specific list for your claim type. ## Match the claim to what was copied | Problem | Use VeRO? | Show | Avoid | |---|---|---|---| | Counterfeit goods sold under your brand | Yes: trademark or counterfeit report | What makes the goods fake: a test buy, impossible prices, packaging or labels you never made | Reporting on price alone; eBay treats that as a pricing complaint | | A seller using your product photos or descriptions | Yes: copyright report | Your original photo, where you first published it, and the listing using it. Side by side if the seller cropped or filtered it | Claiming copyright over a photo you licensed from someone else without checking the licence | | Your logo on lookalike goods | Yes: trademark report | Your registration for the country of the eBay site, and where the listing uses your name or logo | Reporting listings that only mention your brand to describe a genuine product | | Genuine goods resold below your price | No: eBay does not enforce pricing | Not a VeRO case | Filing it as a counterfeit or trademark report | | An unauthorised but genuine reseller | No: resale of genuine goods is not an IP report | Not a VeRO case | Filing it as a counterfeit or trademark report | Report each eBay site with rights valid in that country. A listing on ebay.co.uk aimed at UK buyers needs UK or EU-wide rights behind the trademark claim. A copyright claim over your own photos travels much further, because copyright protection is international. ## How to file a VeRO report > **Already have VeRO Portal access? Log in and skip to step 2.** 1. **Log in to the VeRO Portal.** Open the portal from [eBay's VeRO page](https://pages.ebay.com/vero/). eBay says the portal is where you 'submit reports, manage multiple brands and track your account activity'. If you do not have access yet, email askvero@ebay.com. 2. **Choose the reason code.** eBay uses reason codes that differ by marketplace (for example, a code for unlawful importation of a trademarked product), and keeps separate NOCI forms for Australia, Germany, Spain, France and Italy. Pick the code that matches what you can prove. A trademark reason for a copied photo, or a counterfeit reason without evidence, is the quickest way to a rejection. 3. **Add each listing by item number.** Report each infringing listing. eBay's FAQ calls the report a Notice of Claimed Infringement (NOCI). 4. **Sign the notice.** The NOCI is signed under penalty of perjury, as the rights owner or as their authorised agent. 5. **Submit and track.** Track your reports in the portal. To withdraw one, email askvero@ebay.com from an authorised address. > For copyright problems on US listings, you can also send a DMCA notice to eBay's designated agent at copyright@ebay.com, with the standard elements of 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3). Our [DMCA notice template](https://www.trytakedown.com/tools/dmca-takedown-notice-generator) includes all of them. eBay says non-US and non-copyright concerns must go through the VeRO Portal. ## What the seller is told 1. eBay checks the report is complete and may contact you for more information. 2. If the listing infringes, eBay says it 'may be removed', and the seller is notified with an explanation and your contact details. 3. The seller can appeal with evidence, ask you to retract, or revise and relist the item. eBay does not allow a counterfeit to be relisted. 4. Sellers with repeated IP violations 'may face further action, including selling restrictions or account suspension.' eBay does not publish a response time for VeRO reports, so be wary of anyone quoting one as official. If a seller contacts you, keep the conversation in writing. Do not retract a report unless they show they have your permission or that the goods are genuine. Retractions go to askvero@ebay.com. ## What a counter-notice does Counter-notices apply only to US-based copyright reports. If a seller files one, eBay sends it to you, and the listing is reinstated after 10 business days unless you tell eBay you have filed a court action. Trademark and counterfeit reports have no counter-notice route, though sellers can still appeal. ## What eBay will not act on - **Distribution or pricing complaints.** eBay will not act on reports that try to stop where or how genuine products are resold, or that try to prevent sales below a price point. - **The wrong claim type.** Copied photos are copyright; your name or logo is trademark. Mixing them up is the most common avoidable error. - **Rights in the wrong country.** A trademark registered only in the UK is weak against a listing on ebay.com aimed at US buyers. - **Not enough evidence.** A listing that looks suspicious is not proof. Show the copied element, or prove the goods are fake. Removed listings often come back under a new seller account. Search your brand and run your best product photos through a reverse image search every week or two. ## Set up a VeRO profile eBay lets rights owners publish a free VeRO participant profile explaining their policies, for example which products are never sold through eBay or how to spot fakes. eBay says the rights owner is solely responsible for its content. To start one, email askvero@ebay.com. A profile does not remove listings by itself. It tells sellers and buyers where you stand. ## Summary: Summary | Step | Where | What you need | |---|---|---| | 1. Get portal access | VeRO Portal, or askvero@ebay.com | Rights owner or authorised representative | | 2. Choose the reason code | VeRO Portal | A registration valid for that eBay site, or your original photos and copy | | 3. Add the listings | VeRO Portal | Item numbers and dated evidence for each | | 4. Sign and submit | VeRO Portal | A statement under penalty of perjury and a brand-protection address | | US copyright only | copyright@ebay.com | A DMCA notice with the 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3) elements | If you would rather we filed it, Takedown files only after you approve each case: [counterfeit listing removal](https://www.trytakedown.com/services/counterfeit-listing-removal). ## Frequently asked questions ### Does it cost anything to use VeRO? No. eBay does not charge rights owners to report through VeRO, and VeRO profiles are free. ### Do I need to sell on eBay to use VeRO? No. VeRO is for rights owners and their authorised representatives, whether or not they sell on eBay. ### Will the seller see my details? Yes. eBay gives the seller the rights owner's contact details with the removal notice, so use a dedicated brand-protection address. ### How long does eBay take to remove a listing? eBay does not publish a response time for VeRO reports. ## Sources, checked 4 October 2026 - [eBay: Verified Rights Owner (VeRO) programme](https://pages.ebay.com/vero/) - [eBay Help: Intellectual property and the VeRO program](https://www.ebay.com/help/policies/listing-policies/selling-policies/intellectual-property-vero-program?id=4349) - [eBay Seller Center: Intellectual property](https://www.ebay.com/sellercenter/resources/intellectual-property) - [eBay Seller Center: VeRO participant profiles](https://www.ebay.com/sellercenter/resources/verified-rights-owner-profiles) - [eBay Export: VeRO programme and intellectual property policy](https://export.ebay.com/en/fees-regulations-policies/ebay-policies/ebay-verified-rights-owner-program-and-intellectual-property-policy/) - [eBay Developers: VeRO API](https://developer.ebay.com/develop/api/sell/vero_api_v2.md) --- # How to report trademark, copyright and counterfeit infringement on Amazon Source: https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/amazon-report-infringement · Updated 15 Oct 2026 ## TL;DR - To report a counterfeit or copied Amazon listing, use Amazon's Report Infringement form at amazon.com/report/infringement, or Report a Violation if your brand is enrolled in Brand Registry. - Rights owners and their agents file while signed in to an Amazon account, and a counterfeit report needs a registered trademark valid in that Amazon store. - Amazon will not act on minimum advertised price agreements, true compatibility statements, or another seller listing genuine goods on a detail page you created. - If Amazon accepts a notice it removes the content and tells the sellers, who can appeal or file a counter-notice, and you can retract a notice within 365 days. Amazon's [Report Infringement form](https://www.amazon.com/report/infringement) takes trademark, copyright, patent, design and counterfeit notices for up to 50 ASINs at a time, and [Brand Registry](https://sell.amazon.com/brand-registry) adds Report a Violation and Project Zero for enrolled brands. This page covers the public form step by step, the claim type for each problem, test buys, and the Brand Registry tools. ## What you'll need - **An Amazon account to sign in with.** You do not need to sell on Amazon. - **Your registration number**, valid in the country of the Amazon store. A counterfeit report on amazon.com needs a federally registered mark: common-law marks and pending applications cannot be used. - **For copyright,** a description of, or link to, your original work. - **The ASINs, ISBN-10s or URLs**, up to 50 per report, all for the same issue. - **A test-buy order ID**, only if you report a specific offer rather than a whole ASIN. - **A brand-protection address** to give as your secondary contact. Amazon shares your contact details with the sellers you report. - **The Registered Agent role, if you file for a brand.** In Brand Registry, the brand's Administrator gives it to the agent, who then reports under the brand's registrations. The steps on this page follow Amazon's help pages, checked 4 October 2026. ## The public form or Brand Registry | | Report Infringement form | Brand Registry: Report a Violation | |---|---|---| | Who | Rights owners and their agents, signed in to an Amazon account | Brands enrolled in Brand Registry (Rights Owner or Registered Agent role) | | Needs | Proof of your rights | An active registered trademark, or a pending application filed through Amazon's IP Accelerator | | Covers | Trademark, copyright, patent, design and counterfeit | IP infringement plus store policy and regulatory concerns | | Cost | Free | Free | You do not need to sell on Amazon to use either. Amazon's help pages are not entirely consistent on whether the public form needs a Brand Registry role, so if the form asks for one, enrol first. > **Already enrolled in Brand Registry? Report through Report a Violation in your Brand Registry account, and skip to [Choose the claim type](#claim-types).** The claim types, evidence and limits below apply to both routes. ## Choose the claim type | What you see | Claim type | What Amazon needs | |---|---|---| | Fake goods sold under your brand | Counterfeit | A registered trademark (on amazon.com, a federally registered mark: common-law marks and pending applications cannot be used) | | Your name or logo on someone else's goods | Trademark | Registration number, valid in the country of the Amazon store | | Your photos or product copy on another listing | Copyright | A description of, or link to, your original work | | A copy of your patented product | Patent | A valid patent in that store; utility patents need a court or ITC order, or Amazon's APEX evaluation | Each notice covers one type of IP. If you list two trademark numbers in one notice, Amazon only considers the first, so file separate notices. ## How to file with the Report Infringement form 1. **Sign in.** Go to amazon.com/report/infringement and sign in to your Amazon account. 2. **Select the products.** Search for the products. Tick the whole ASIN, or use Show offers or Show all images to tick a specific offer or image. 3. **Pick the infringement type.** Open the 'Report # selected' menu and choose the type. You can include up to 50 ASINs, ISBN-10s or URLs in one report, all for the same issue. 4. **Answer the questions.** The form starts with 'What best describes your issue?'. Give your registration number, where the infringement appears (product, packaging, image or text), and the specific sellers if you are not reporting the whole ASIN. 5. **Add a test buy if needed.** Reporting a specific offer for trademark or copyright infringement needs a test buy. Enter the order number where it asks 'What is the order ID number?'. Reporting a complete ASIN does not need one. 6. **Submit and track.** You get a confirmation, then a follow-up by email. To retract a notice, use Amazon's Notice Retraction Form within 365 days. ## Evidence Amazon accepts first time - **Match the claim to the content you select.** If you tick an image, the claim should be about that image (usually copyright). If you tick the whole ASIN, the claim should be about the product itself. - **Use rights that are valid in that store.** A UK registration supports amazon.co.uk, not amazon.com. - **Report the whole ASIN when all of it infringes.** That avoids the test-buy requirement for specific offers. - **Keep the test-buy order details** when you do need one. Amazon asks for the order ID in the form. - **Search beyond your brand name.** Copies that remove the logo will not show up in a name search. Search for the product type and compare images. In our [Kitsch case](https://www.trytakedown.com/research/kitsch-air-dry-cream-lookalikes), 18 of 37 lookalike listings had the logo removed or swapped. If an agent or a service files for you, check that it files under your brand's Brand Registry account, so the acceptance rate counts towards Project Zero for you. ## What the seller is told, and counter-notices If Amazon accepts the notice, it removes the content, tells the sellers and takes what it calls 'appropriate action', without sharing details of any non-public action. The sellers receive your secondary contact details if you gave them, otherwise your primary ones. If Amazon rejects the notice, you are told why. Amazon does not publish a response time. Sellers can appeal or file a counter-notice from their account. Amazon warns that 'multiple submissions of inaccurate or inauthentic notices could lead to the removal of your submission privileges', so a weak notice can cost more than a missed listing. ## What Amazon will not act on - **True compatibility statements.** 'Fits the [Brand] bottle' is allowed if it is accurate. - **Rights from another country.** A mark registered in one country does not support a notice on another country's Amazon store. - **Price and distribution agreements.** Amazon does not enforce minimum advertised price agreements, and only enforces exclusive distribution in a few countries (China, France and the UAE). - **Parallel imports and warranty claims**, except where local law applies (Amazon names the EU, Brazil and Türkiye). - **Detail page ownership.** Another seller listing genuine goods on a page you created is not infringement. ## Brand Registry, Project Zero and Transparency Brand Registry is free. It needs an active registered trademark, or a pending application filed through Amazon's IP Accelerator, and the brand name must be permanently affixed to the product or its packaging. After you apply, Amazon emails a verification link to the trademark's correspondent, who has 7 days to answer it. Project Zero lets brands remove counterfeit listings themselves, without a report. To qualify you must be a Brand Registry rights owner who has used Report a Violation in the last six months with at least a 90% acceptance rate, and you must keep at least 99% accuracy to stay in. It is free. Every rejected notice lowers your acceptance rate, so careful filing matters from the first report. Transparency, Amazon's product serialisation programme, is paid per code. ## Summary: Summary | Step | Where | What you need | |---|---|---| | 1. Sign in | amazon.com/report/infringement | An Amazon account | | 2. Select the products | Search results, Show offers or Show all images | The ASINs, offers or images that infringe | | 3.

Not always. The Report Infringement form is for rights owners and their agents and needs a signed-in Amazon account. Brand Registry adds Report a Violation and Project Zero, and needs a registered trademark or a pending application filed through IP Accelerator. ### Is a test buy required? For reporting a specific offer for trademark or copyright infringement, yes, according to Amazon's help pages. Reporting a whole ASIN does not need one. ### How many listings can I report at once? Up to 50 ASINs, ISBN-10s or URLs per report, all for the same infringement type and issue. ### Does it cost anything? No. Reporting is free, and so is Brand Registry. Patent evaluations through APEX need a $5,000 deposit from each side, returned to the winner. ## Sources, checked 4 October 2026 - [Amazon: Report Infringement form](https://www.amazon.com/report/infringement) - [Amazon Seller Central: Using the Report Infringement form](https://sellercentral.amazon.com/help/hub/reference/external/GJFZJ63CR5BRSNAY) - [Amazon Seller Central: Intellectual property for rights owners and registered agents](https://sellercentral.amazon.com/help/hub/reference/external/GU5SQCEKADDAQRLZ) - [Amazon: Brand Registry](https://sell.amazon.com/brand-registry) - [Amazon: Brand Registry requirements](https://sell.amazon.com/blog/brand-registry-requirements) - [Amazon: Project Zero](https://sell.amazon.com/brand-registry/project-zero) --- # How to report a Shopify store that copies your brand Source: https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/report-shopify-store-infringement · Updated 15 Oct 2026 ## TL;DR - To report a Shopify store that copies your brand, use the Intellectual property forms on Shopify's Report an issue page: the copyright (DMCA) form for photos and text, and the trademark and trade dress form for your name or logo. - The rights owner, or someone authorised to act for them, can file without a Shopify account, but every report needs a direct link to each infringing page. - Shopify has no separate counterfeit option and says 'a general shop link will not be accepted', and a store that takes money and never delivers is a fraud report rather than an IP one. - Shopify tells the merchant what was reported, and copyright content 'may be reposted' after a counter-notice if Shopify hears of no legal action within 10 to 14 business days. Shopify's [Report an issue](https://www.shopify.com/legal/tools/report-an-issue/intellectual-property) page is where rights owners report a merchant's store, including a store that runs behind its own domain. This page covers checking the store is on Shopify, the two IP forms, what to write in the description, and the registrar, browser and payment routes alongside Shopify. ## What you'll need - **Confirmation the store is on Shopify.** See the next section. - **The direct URL of every infringing page.** A homepage link alone gets the report rejected. - **Dated screenshots** of each page, with the URL visible. - **For copyright,** links to your original work. - **For trademark,** samples of the mark, and for each mark its registration number, countries and classes. - **Your legal name and contact details**, ideally a brand-protection address. Shopify may pass your notice, including your contact details, to the merchant. - **Authority to act**, if you file for the rights owner. The steps on this page follow Shopify's legal and Help Center pages, checked 4 October 2026. ## Check the store is on Shopify Many copycat stores run on Shopify behind their own domain. Paste the address into our [Fake Shopping Website Checker](https://www.trytakedown.com/tools/fake-store-checker) or [Abuse Contact Finder](https://www.trytakedown.com/tools/abuse-contact-finder) to see the platform, host and registrar. If the store is on Shopify, Shopify's forms are the main route even with a custom domain, because Shopify serves the store. The domain's registrar is a separate company you can also report to. ## Pick the form Shopify's 'Report an issue' page has separate routes for orders, spam, intellectual property, illegal activity, fraud and more. For a store copying your brand, choose **Intellectual property**, which offers two forms. There is no separate counterfeit option. | What they copied | Form | Key requirement | |---|---|---| | Your product photos, descriptions or site content | [Copyright (DMCA)](https://www.shopify.com/legal/tools/report-an-issue/dmca) | Links to your original work and to each infringing page | | Your brand name or logo | [Trademark and trade dress](https://www.shopify.com/legal/tools/report-an-issue/trademark-infringement) | Registration number, countries and classes | | The distinctive look of your store or packaging | Trademark and trade dress | A description of the distinctive features and a statement that they are non-functional | | A scam store that takes money and never delivers | Fraud (not IP) | Order details, if you or a customer bought | Copycat stores usually copy both, so you can file both forms. Copyright is often the stronger route, because it does not depend on where your trademark is registered. ## How to file 1. **Collect the exact URLs.** List every product page that uses your photos or brand. Shopify acts on the links you give it, so pages you leave out can stay up. 2. **Capture evidence.** Take dated screenshots with the URL visible, and save copies of the pages. Stores change and disappear quickly. 3. **Open the form.** Use the copyright form at shopify.com/legal/tools/report-an-issue/dmca or the trademark form at shopify.com/legal/tools/report-an-issue/trademark-infringement. 4. **Fill in the form.** Give your legal name and contact details, links to your original work (or samples of your mark, its registration number, countries and classes), the infringing links and a description. 5. **Sign the statements.** Both forms need a good-faith statement and a statement, under penalty of perjury, that you own the rights or are authorised to act for the owner. 6. **Submit.** If the form does not work for you, write to legal@shopify.com or to Shopify Trust & Safety, 151 O'Connor Street, Ottawa, ON K2P 2L8. ## What to write in the description Shopify's reviewer has never seen your brand. Say plainly what was copied, where, and how to check it. A short, specific description works better than a long one. > Example (copyright): "The store at [domain] reproduces 48 of our product photographs without permission. Each infringing page is listed below, followed by the page on our site where the original photograph was first published on [date]. The photos were taken by our in-house team and we own the copyright." > Example (trademark): "The store at [domain] uses our registered trademark [MARK] (UKIPO [number], class 25; USPTO [number], class 25) as its store name and in product titles to sell clothing we did not make. Customers have contacted us believing it is our store." If customers bought from the store thinking it was you, ask them for their order confirmation. That supports a fraud report to Shopify and a chargeback with their bank, and it shows the confusion a trademark claim relies on. ## What the merchant is told Shopify notifies the merchant in their admin of the content reported and whether it will be removed. Shopify says it terminates stores for repeat infringement 'in appropriate circumstances', and that this extends to every store the same infringer runs. Shopify does not publish a response time. ## What a counter-notice does - **Copyright:** if the merchant files a counter-notice and Shopify does not hear about legal action within 10 to 14 business days, the content 'may be reposted'. - **Trademark:** the merchant can file a response that accepts the jurisdiction of a US federal court. Shopify then forwards it to you and will 'generally permit' the merchant to repost the content. No waiting period is stated. Either one means the merchant gives a name and contact details and accepts a court's jurisdiction, which anonymous copycat operators tend to avoid. ## What Shopify will not act on, and the other routes - **A general shop link.** Shopify needs the page-level URL of each infringing page. - **Counterfeits as their own category.** Report them through the trademark form. - **A store that is not on Shopify.** Use the [Abuse Contact Finder](https://www.trytakedown.com/tools/abuse-contact-finder) to find its platform, host and registrar. Shopify is the main route, not the only one. Report to these as well: - **The domain registrar**, for abuse or trademark misuse in the domain name. - **Google Safe Browsing**, which warns visitors in Chrome and other browsers. - **The payment provider**, if the store takes card payments through a processor you can identify. - **Meta and TikTok**, if the store runs ads using your brand. Meta Ad Library entries that send traffic to the store are worth capturing first. Two cases show the pattern: the [CRAFTD](https://www.trytakedown.com/research/craftd-london-fake-storefronts) and [Gymshark](https://www.trytakedown.com/research/gymshark-fake-storefronts) copycat stores. ## Summary: Summary | Step | Where | What you need | |---|---|---| | 1. Confirm the platform | [Fake Shopping Website Checker](https://www.trytakedown.com/tools/fake-store-checker) | The store's address | | 2. Collect the URLs and evidence | The store itself | Every infringing page, with dated screenshots | | 3. File copyright | shopify.com/legal/tools/report-an-issue/dmca | Links to your originals | | 4. File trademark | shopify.com/legal/tools/report-an-issue/trademark-infringement | Samples of the mark, registration number, countries and classes | | 5. Sign and submit | The form, or legal@shopify.com | Good-faith and perjury statements | | 6. Report alongside | Registrar, Google Safe Browsing, payment provider, ad platforms | The same evidence | If you would rather we filed it, Takedown files only after you approve each case: [fake website takedown](https://www.trytakedown.com/services/fake-website-takedown). ## Frequently asked questions ### Do I need a Shopify account to report a store? No. Shopify's IP forms are for rights owners or people authorised to act for them, and need no Shopify account. ### Can I report a Shopify store for selling counterfeits? Yes, through the trademark form, since Shopify has no separate counterfeit option. If the store copied your photos, file the copyright form as well. ### Will the store owner see my name? Possibly. Shopify says a copy of your notice, including the contact information you give, may be provided to the merchant. ### What if the store is not on Shopify? Use our [Abuse Contact Finder](https://www.trytakedown.com/tools/abuse-contact-finder) to find the platform, host and registrar, and send each a notice. The [DMCA notice template](https://www.trytakedown.com/tools/dmca-takedown-notice-generator) works for most hosts. ## Sources, checked 4 October 2026 - [Shopify: Report a merchant](https://www.shopify.com/legal/tools/report-an-issue/report-a-merchant) - [Shopify: Intellectual property reports](https://www.shopify.com/legal/tools/report-an-issue/intellectual-property) - [Shopify: Trademark infringement form](https://www.shopify.com/legal/tools/report-an-issue/trademark-infringement) - [Shopify: DMCA copyright form](https://www.shopify.com/legal/tools/report-an-issue/dmca) - [Shopify Help Center: Intellectual property](https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/compliance/intellectual-property) - [Shopify Help Center: Copyright policy](https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/compliance/intellectual-property/copyright-policy) - [Shopify Help Center: Trademark and trade dress policy](https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/compliance/intellectual-property/trademark-trade-dress-policy) --- # How to report intellectual property infringement on Etsy Source: https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/etsy-ip-infringement-report · Updated 15 Oct 2026 ## TL;DR - To report an Etsy listing that copies your trademark, artwork or photos, file a report in Etsy's Intellectual Property Reporting Portal at etsy.com/ipreporting. - The rights owner or an authorised agent files from an Etsy account after adding the trademark, copyright or patent as a property, and a trademark report needs a valid, active registration. - The portal takes individual listings, not shop names, usernames or videos, which go through Etsy's separate reporting form. - Etsy removes the content of a compliant report and tries to contact the seller, and only a US copyright report can be answered with a counter-notice. Etsy's [Intellectual Property Reporting Portal](https://www.etsy.com/ipreporting) is where rights owners report listings under Etsy's [Intellectual Property Policy](https://www.etsy.com/legal/ip/). This page covers registering for the portal, adding your property, reporting one listing or a batch, and the reasons Etsy gives for rejecting reports. ## What you'll need - **An Etsy account.** You can create one while registering for the portal. - **For trademark reports:** a valid, active, registered trademark. Etsy says a pending application 'may not' be processed, and a mark on the US Supplemental Register needs extra proof that it is distinctive. - **For copyright reports:** a link to your own original work, not to the seller's copy. - **For patent reports:** a patent in a jurisdiction that matches where the seller is or delivers. - **The listing URLs or IDs**, not shop names. - **A letter of authorisation, if you are an agent.** Etsy checks it before the report can be submitted. - **A brand-protection email address.** Etsy may give the seller your name and email. The portal is in US English only, but rights owners anywhere can use it. The steps on this page follow Etsy's policy and help pages, checked 4 October 2026. ## Choose copyright, trademark or patent | What the listing copies | Report as | Etsy will want | |---|---|---| | Your product photos, artwork, patterns or descriptions | Copyright | A link to your original, published before the copy | | Your brand name or logo, to sell goods | Trademark | A valid, active registration that covers those goods | | The design of your physical product | Patent (design) | A design patent in a jurisdiction matching where the seller is or delivers | Many Etsy copies are handmade or print-on-demand listings that reuse artwork and photos rather than brand names, so copyright is often the right claim, and it needs no registration. A trademark claim works only when the listing uses your mark to sell. Etsy rejects reports where the mark is not used, or is used only decoratively. ## How to file through the IP Reporting Portal > **Already registered for the portal, with your property added? Skip to step 3.** 1. **Register.** Go to etsy.com/ipreporting, sign in, choose who owns the rights (you, or a company or client you represent), and add your details. 2. **Add your property.** In the Intellectual Properties tab, choose Add property. Enter the type (trademark, copyright or patent), the owner, a letter of authorisation if you are an agent, a URL showing the property in use, and its name and details. 3. **Create a report.** In the Reports tab, choose Create a report, pick the owner and property, then Create & add listings. Search Etsy, or upload listing IDs or URLs. 4. **Review and submit.** Choose Review & submit. You get an email confirmation, then another email with the outcome. Track status in the Reports tab. Etsy suggests contacting the seller first. For a small seller making an honest mistake, that sometimes works. For a counterfeiter it rarely does. ## Report many listings at once - Collect the listing IDs in a spreadsheet, then upload them in step 3 rather than searching one by one. - Group listings by property and IP type. One report per trademark or per copyrighted work keeps each report easy to review. - Add the property once in the Intellectual Properties tab and reuse it for every report. - Keep a record of what you reported and when, so you can spot the same seller relisting under a new shop. Capture each listing with its URL and date visible, and keep your originals with their file dates. Etsy may ask for more information, and dated originals answer most of its questions. Takedown does not run a native Etsy scanner. We find Etsy copies through Google search and reverse image search. ## What the seller is told For a compliant report, Etsy removes or disables the content and makes a 'reasonable attempt to contact the affected member'. It may give the seller a copy of the report, including your name and email address, and may ask you for more information, such as a letter of authorisation or proof of identity. Etsy does not publish a response time; it says it 'strives to respond quickly'. Only the person who filed a report can withdraw it, and the withdrawal must clearly name the member and listings. If a seller writes to you claiming permission, ask for it in writing before you consider withdrawing. ## What a counter-notice does Counter-notices are accepted only for US-based copyright reports. Content may be restored 10 business days after the counter-notice is processed, unless you tell Etsy you have started a court action or a qualifying Copyright Claims Board action. Etsy terminates selling privileges for repeat infringers 'in appropriate circumstances and at Etsy's discretion', may refuse service if they open a new shop, and applies this to associated accounts. ## What Etsy will not act on Usernames, shop names and videos are not reported through the portal. Etsy has a separate reporting form for those. Etsy also publishes its own list of reasons it rejects portal reports. The ones that catch brands most often: - **Missing details:** your full name, address, phone number or email. - **The wrong example:** linking the seller's listing as your 'authorised example' instead of your own product or work. - **Shop names instead of listings:** Etsy needs the individual listing URLs. - **The wrong IP type**, such as a trademark report for copied photos. - **A trademark that is not registered and active**, or a listing that does not use the mark, or uses it only decoratively. > The [Takedown Evidence Checklist](https://www.trytakedown.com/tools/takedown-evidence-checklist) builds the Etsy-specific list for your claim, and the [DMCA notice template](https://www.trytakedown.com/tools/dmca-takedown-notice-generator) helps you describe copied work clearly. ## Summary: Summary | Step | Where | What you need | |---|---|---| | 1. Register | etsy.com/ipreporting | An Etsy account and your owner details | | 2. Add your property | Intellectual Properties tab | Registration details or your original work; a letter of authorisation for agents | | 3. Create a report | Reports tab, Create & add listings | Listing IDs or URLs, not shop names | | 4. Review and submit | Review & submit | A brand-protection email for the outcome | If you would rather we filed it, Takedown files only after you approve each case: [counterfeit listing removal](https://www.trytakedown.com/services/counterfeit-listing-removal). ## Frequently asked questions ### Do I need an Etsy account to report infringement? Yes. You can create one while registering for the IP Reporting Portal. ### Can I report an Etsy listing with a pending trademark? Etsy says a pending application may not be processed. A registered, active trademark is much more reliable. Copied photos can be reported as copyright without a registration. ### Will the seller know who reported them? Etsy may give the seller a copy of the report, including the reporting party's name and email address. ### How do I report a shop name or a video? Not through the portal. Etsy has a separate reporting form for usernames, shop names and videos. ## Sources, checked 4 October 2026 - [Etsy: Intellectual Property Policy](https://www.etsy.com/legal/ip/) - [Etsy: Intellectual Property Reporting Portal](https://www.etsy.com/ipreporting) - [Etsy Help: How to report intellectual property infringement](https://help.etsy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000344448) - [Etsy Help: Why was my IP report rejected?](https://help.etsy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360062303094) - [Etsy: Counter notice policy](https://www.etsy.com/legal/ip-counter) --- # How to report counterfeits on TikTok Shop with the IPPC Source: https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/tiktok-shop-ippc · Updated 15 Oct 2026 ## TL;DR - To report a counterfeit or copied product, video or LIVE on TikTok Shop, file a complaint in TikTok Shop's Intellectual Property Protection Center (IPPC) at ippc.tiktokglobalshop.com. - Only rights owners or their authorised representatives can file, after verifying their identity and having each trademark or copyright approved in the IPPC, and the right must be active in the shop's country. - TikTok will not process complaints based only on price or a distribution agreement, and design complaints go through a separate web form, not the IPPC. - A rejected complaint cannot be appealed, so you file a new one with new information, while a seller gets up to two appeals per case. TikTok Shop's [Intellectual Property Protection Center](https://ippc.tiktokglobalshop.com/) is the portal for infringement complaints under its [intellectual property policy](https://seller-us.tiktok.com/university/essay?knowledge_id=6837901778306818). This page covers setting up an IPPC account, the proof TikTok accepts for each right, the complaint types, and what sellers can do after a removal. ## What you'll need - **An IPPC account**, or a TikTok Shop seller account to log in with. You do not need to sell on TikTok Shop. - **Identity documents.** For the US, businesses provide IRS-issued documents such as a business licence, certificate of incorporation or EIN letter. Individuals provide a passport, driving licence, state ID or permanent resident card. - **Proof of each right**, active in the country of the shop (see the table below). - **The links** to the products, videos or LIVEs you are reporting. - **For counterfeits,** side-by-side photos of the genuine and the fake product. - **A brand-protection email address.** TikTok may give the account holder your name and email. The requirements on this page come from TikTok Shop's US guide, checked 4 October 2026. We have not checked the UK and EU versions, and their document lists may differ. ## What proof TikTok accepts *Requirements from TikTok Shop's US guide* | Right | Proof | |---|---| | Trademark | The registration certificate (USPTO for the US), plus renewal or assignment documents where relevant. WIPO screenshots or extracts are not accepted. | | Registered copyright | A US Copyright Office certificate or a copyright claim statement. | | Unregistered copyright | Your raw original files, with their metadata. | | Design | The registration certificate plus six views. Design complaints use TikTok's web form, not the IPPC. | The right must be active in the country where you want to enforce it. A trademark registered in another country will not support a complaint in the US shop. A brand with only UK or EU marks can still report copied photos to the US shop as copyright, using its original files with their metadata. ## How to set up and file a complaint > **Already have an IPPC organisation with your rights approved? Skip to step 5.** 1. **Create an account.** Create an IPPC account at ippc.tiktokglobalshop.com, or log in with a TikTok Shop seller account. Seller accounts can sync brand authorisations and skip the identity check. 2. **Join or create an organisation.** Every account belongs to an organisation, with Admin, Rights Owner and Agent roles. An agency filing for a brand uses the Agent role. 3. **Verify your identity.** Upload the identity documents for your country. 4. **Register your rights.** Upload proof of each right and wait for approval before you file against it. 5. **Start a complaint.** Go to Complaint Management and choose Submit New Complaint. 6. **Pick the complaint type and country.** Use the table below to match the type to what was copied. 7. **Add the content.** Search for the products, videos or LIVEs you are reporting. 8. **Fill in the form and submit.** Complete the form from top to bottom, with the evidence the complaint type asks for. | Complaint type | Use it for | Evidence | |---|---|---| | Trademark: Counterfeit | Fake goods sold under your brand | Side-by-side photos of the genuine and fake product; customer-review photos are allowed | | Trademark: Wrong association | Listings that falsely link themselves to your brand | Screenshots of the misuse | | Trademark: Overuse, or use in videos and LIVEs | Your mark used in titles, videos or livestreams | Links to the specific content | | Copyright: Unlawful reproduction or content infringement | Your photos or videos reused | Your originals; content infringement needs a 1:1 match | TikTok also accepts complaints about AI-modified copies of your content. ## Evidence for counterfeit complaints Counterfeit complaints on TikTok Shop are judged on side-by-side comparison photos, so the quality of those images decides most outcomes. - **Photograph your genuine product and the listing's product the same way:** same angle, same lighting, with the differences visible (logo placement, stitching, labels, packaging). - **Use customer-review photos** from the listing when they show the real item received. TikTok accepts them. - **Point out what cannot be genuine:** a colourway you never made, a size you do not sell, packaging you do not use. - **For copyright,** show your original image next to the listing's. Content infringement needs a 1:1 match, so cropped or edited copies may fit 'unlawful reproduction' better. - **Collect the video and LIVE links** along with the product links. Copies are often sold through creator videos rather than search. ## What the seller is told, and appeals The outcome is emailed to you and shown in the IPPC. TikTok may give the account holder your contact information, including your name and email. It does not publish a response time. If TikTok rejects your complaint, you cannot appeal. File a new complaint with the missing information. Sellers get up to two appeals per case (the first within 30 days of enforcement, the second within 15 days of the first being rejected), and can file a DMCA counter-notice for copyright complaints. TikTok says repeated offences or selling counterfeits 'could lead to account deactivation'. ## If you sell on TikTok Shop yourself Log in to the IPPC with your seller account to skip the separate identity check and sync your brand authorisations. TikTok's Originality Protection programme registers eligible sellers' original images automatically and blocks copycat listings that reuse them before they go live. Copies that get through usually do so with edited images or through creator videos. Search your product names and categories regularly, look at the videos and LIVEs selling them, and file against the specific content rather than the seller's whole shop. If an agency files for you, add it as an Agent in your IPPC organisation rather than sharing your login. That keeps a record of who filed what, and you keep control of the organisation if you change agencies. ## What TikTok will not process - Complaints based only on a distribution agreement. - Complaints based only on price (MAP or MSRP). - Trademarks, patents or designs from a different country than the shop. - Design complaints in the IPPC. They go through TikTok's [e-commerce IP report form](https://www.tiktok.com/legal/report/ecommerce-IPR). ## Summary: Summary | Step | Where | What you need | |---|---|---| | 1–2. Create an account and organisation | ippc.tiktokglobalshop.com | An IPPC or TikTok Shop seller account | | 3. Verify your identity | IPPC | Business or personal ID for your country | | 4. Register your rights | IPPC | A certificate active in the shop's country, or original files with metadata | | 5–6. Start a complaint | Complaint Management, Submit New Complaint | The complaint type and country | | 7–8. Add content and submit | IPPC complaint form | Product, video or LIVE links and side-by-side evidence | If you would rather we filed it, Takedown files only after you approve each case: [counterfeit listing removal](https://www.trytakedown.com/services/counterfeit-listing-removal). ## Frequently asked questions ### Do I need a TikTok Shop seller account to use the IPPC? No. You can create an IPPC account as a rights owner or agent. A seller account lets you skip the identity check and sync brand authorisations. ### Can I appeal a rejected complaint? No. TikTok says rejected complaints cannot be appealed. You file a new one with new information. ### Does TikTok accept international trademarks? Only in the country where they are registered. For the US shop, TikTok asks for the USPTO certificate and does not accept WIPO screenshots or extracts. ### How do I report a design copy? Through TikTok's web form for e-commerce IP reports, not the IPPC. Utility patents go to TikTok's dedicated IP notice email address. ## Sources, checked 4 October 2026 - [TikTok Shop: Intellectual Property Protection Center](https://ippc.tiktokglobalshop.com/) - [TikTok Shop US: IPPC guide](https://seller-us.tiktok.com/university/essay?knowledge_id=4206417796171575) - [TikTok Shop US: Intellectual property policy](https://seller-us.tiktok.com/university/essay?knowledge_id=6837901778306818) - [TikTok: E-commerce IP report form](https://www.tiktok.com/legal/report/ecommerce-IPR) --- # Someone copied my website: how to get a cloned store taken down Source: https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/someone-copied-my-website · Updated 16 Oct 2026 ## TL;DR - When someone copies your website or online store, report it to the company that serves it first (Shopify or another store platform, or the web host), then the domain registrar, Google Search and the payment provider. - Save dated screenshots and every page URL before you report anything, because cloned stores change and disappear quickly. - Cloudflare does not host the sites it protects: it forwards your complaint to the site operator and the real host, so report to the host as well. - Next step: paste the address into the free [Abuse Contact Finder](https://www.trytakedown.com/tools/abuse-contact-finder) to see who to report it to. A copied website reuses your product photos, descriptions, logo or whole layout on a domain you do not own, usually to take orders for goods you never made. Copyright covers the photos and text you created, and a registered trademark covers your name and logo, so most clones can be reported on both. This page covers what to collect, how to find who runs the site, and each company to report it to. ## What you'll need - **The clone's address and the URL of every copied page.** Platforms act on the links you give them, and Shopify says a general shop link will not be accepted. - **Dated screenshots** of each page with the URL visible, and a saved copy of the page. - **Links to your originals:** the page on your site where each photo or description was first published. - **Your trademark registration numbers**, if the clone uses your name or logo. - **A brand-protection email address.** Several of these companies pass your notice, including your contact details, to the site operator. - **Order details**, if you or a customer bought from the clone. They support a fraud report and a chargeback. The steps on this page follow each company's own reporting pages, checked 16 October 2026. ## Find out who serves the site Every website has a platform or host that serves it and a registrar that sold the domain. They are usually different companies, and each one can act. Paste the address into the [Abuse Contact Finder](https://www.trytakedown.com/tools/abuse-contact-finder) or the [Fake Shopping Website Checker](https://www.trytakedown.com/tools/fake-store-checker) to see the store platform, host, registrar and their abuse contacts. | What the lookup shows | Who to report to first | Why | |---|---|---| | A store platform (Shopify and others) | The platform's IP forms | The platform serves the store, even when it runs behind its own domain | | A web host | The host's abuse or copyright contact | The host can take the files offline | | Cloudflare | Cloudflare, then the host it names | Cloudflare passes your complaint to the site operator and the host; it does not remove the site itself | | Only a registrar | The registrar's abuse contact | The registrar controls the domain name | ## Report it, in this order > **Not on a store platform? Skip step 2 and start with the host.** 1. **Capture the evidence.** Screenshot every copied page with the URL and date visible, and save a copy. Write down the domain, the platform and the host from the lookup. 2. **Report to the store platform.** On Shopify, use the copyright (DMCA) form for copied photos and text and the trademark and trade dress form for your name or logo, with the URL of every infringing page. Our [Shopify guide](https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/report-shopify-store-infringement) walks through both forms. 3. **Report to the host, or to Cloudflare.** Send the host's abuse or copyright contact a notice listing each copied page and your original. If the site sits behind Cloudflare, use Cloudflare's abuse form: Cloudflare forwards the complaint to the site operator and the hosting provider, and gives the host the origin IP so it can find the content. The [DMCA notice template](https://www.trytakedown.com/tools/dmca-takedown-notice-generator) works for most hosts. 4. **Report to the registrar.** ICANN requires registrars to publish an abuse contact and to take 'reasonable and prompt steps to investigate and respond appropriately to any reports of abuse'. Say what the domain is being used for, with your evidence. If a registrar never responds, ICANN takes complaints about registrars that fail these duties. 5. **Remove it from Google Search.** Copied photos and text can be removed from Google results with a copyright request through Google's legal removal troubleshooter. Google sends copyright notices to Lumen, which publishes them, and the site owner can counter-notify. 6. **Report it to the payment provider.** If you can see who processes the clone's payments, report it. PayPal takes infringement reports at infringementreport@paypal.com, and Stripe has an IP notice process. Both can only stop processing payments for the site, which still cuts off its sales. ## If the clone takes money and never delivers A clone that takes orders and ships nothing, or collects card details while posing as you, is fraud as well as infringement. Report it on Shopify through the fraud route rather than only the IP forms. Google Safe Browsing takes reports of deceptive and phishing sites, which can show visitors a warning in Chrome; it is not a route for trademark disputes, so use it only when the site is deceiving buyers. Ask customers who bought from it for their order confirmation, which supports a chargeback with their bank. ## What happens next - **The operator may be told who reported them.** Shopify may pass your notice and contact details to the merchant. Cloudflare forwards complaints to the site operator, though you can ask it not to forward your name for some categories. - **A counter-notice can bring copyright content back.** On Shopify, copyright content 'may be reposted' if the merchant counter-notifies and Shopify hears of no legal action within 10 to 14 business days. A counter-notice means giving a name and accepting a court's jurisdiction, which anonymous operators tend to avoid. - **None of these companies publishes a response time.** Keep a dated record of each report so you can follow up. - **Clones come back on new domains.** Shopify says it terminates repeat infringers in appropriate circumstances, including every store the same person runs. Search for your brand name and run your best product photos through a reverse image search every week or two. ## Summary: Summary | Step | Where | What you need | |---|---|---| | 1. Capture the evidence | The clone itself | Every page URL, with dated screenshots | | 2. Find who serves it | [Abuse Contact Finder](https://www.trytakedown.com/tools/abuse-contact-finder) | The domain | | 3. Report to the platform | Shopify's copyright and trademark forms, or the platform's own | Links to your originals; your registration numbers | | 4. Report to the host or Cloudflare | The host's abuse contact; abuse.cloudflare.com | A notice listing each copied page | | 5. Report to the registrar | The registrar's published abuse contact | What the domain is used for, with evidence | | 6.

Copying your own product photos and written descriptions infringes your copyright, which needs no registration. Using your brand name or logo to sell can infringe your trademark. A site that copies only a general layout or a common theme is harder to report, so lead with the photos and text you created. ### How do I find out who owns a copied website? Look up its platform, host and registrar with the [Abuse Contact Finder](https://www.trytakedown.com/tools/abuse-contact-finder). The owner is often hidden behind domain privacy, but you do not need their name: the companies that serve and register the site can act on your report. ### The site uses Cloudflare. Can Cloudflare take it down? Cloudflare does not host the sites it protects. It forwards your complaint to the site operator and the hosting provider and gives the host the origin IP, so the host is the company that can remove the content. Cloudflare does put a warning in front of confirmed phishing pages. ### Do I need a trademark to report a copied store? No. Copied photos and text are a copyright report, which works without any registration. A trademark registration adds a second route when the clone uses your name or logo. ## Sources, checked 16 October 2026 - [Shopify: Intellectual property reports](https://www.shopify.com/legal/tools/report-an-issue/intellectual-property) - [Shopify Help Center: Intellectual property](https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/compliance/intellectual-property) - [Cloudflare: Abuse reporting](https://abuse.cloudflare.com/) - [Cloudflare: Our approach to abuse](https://www.cloudflare.com/trust-hub/abuse-approach/) - [ICANN: Registrar abuse reports](https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/abuse-2014-01-29-en) - [Google: Report content for legal reasons](https://support.google.com/legal/troubleshooter/1114905) - [Google Safe Browsing: Report a phishing page](https://safebrowsing.google.com/safebrowsing/report_phish/) - [PayPal: Infringement Report Policy](https://www.paypal.com/us/webapps/mpp/ua/infringementrpt-full) - [Stripe: Intellectual property notice policy](https://stripe.com/legal/ip-policy) --- # A counterfeit listing came back after a takedown: what to do Source: https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/counterfeit-relisted-after-takedown · Updated 16 Oct 2026 ## TL;DR - When a removed counterfeit listing comes back, report the new listing on its own: a takedown removes the reported content, not every future copy from the same seller. - Mention the earlier report when you file. eBay, Etsy, Shopify and Temu each say they act against repeat infringers, up to closing the account or store. - A copyright removal can also come back legitimately after a counter-notice, if you do not start a court action within the platform's window (10 business days on eBay and Etsy, 10 to 14 on Shopify). - Next step: keep a dated log of every report, and search for your products by photo as well as by name, because relisted copies often drop the brand name. A relisted counterfeit is a listing you had removed that reappears, from the same seller under a new listing, from a new account, or as the same content restored after a counter-notice. Each is handled differently. This page covers how to tell which one you are looking at, what Amazon, eBay, Etsy, Shopify and Temu say they do about repeat infringers, and how to report so a pattern is visible. ## What you'll need - **Your earlier report:** the date, the platform's reference number and the listings you reported. - **The new listing URLs** and dated screenshots of each. - **What links the new listing to the old one:** the same photos, the same seller name or storefront, the same wording or the same price. - **Any counter-notice you received**, if the platform sent you one. The platform rules on this page come from each platform's own pages, checked 16 October 2026. ## Work out which kind of relist it is | What you see | What happened | What to do | |---|---|---| | Your exact content is back on the same listing | Probably restored after a counter-notice to a copyright report | Check your email for the counter-notice; only a court action within the window keeps it down | | Same seller, new listing | The seller relisted after removal | Report the new listing and cite the earlier report; the platform's repeat-infringer policy applies | | New seller or store, same photos or product | A new account, or a different seller copying the same product | Report it as a new case; note the shared photos or details so the platform can link the accounts | | Same product, your name removed | A lookalike that avoids name searches | Report on the copied photos (copyright) or the product design; search by image to find more | ## What each platform says about repeat infringers - **eBay:** sellers with repeated IP violations 'may face further action, including selling restrictions or account suspension', and eBay does not allow a counterfeit to be relisted. See our [eBay VeRO guide](https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/ebay-vero-report-counterfeit). - **Etsy:** terminates selling privileges for repeat infringers 'in appropriate circumstances and at Etsy's discretion', may refuse service if they open a new shop, and applies this to associated accounts. See our [Etsy guide](https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/etsy-ip-infringement-report). - **Shopify:** terminates stores for repeat infringement 'in appropriate circumstances', and says this extends to every store the same infringer runs. See our [Shopify guide](https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/report-shopify-store-infringement). - **Temu:** says it terminates repeat infringers 'in appropriate circumstances'. - **TikTok Shop:** says repeated offences or selling counterfeits 'could lead to account deactivation'. See our [TikTok Shop guide](https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/tiktok-shop-ippc). - **Amazon:** says that when it accepts a notice it removes the content, tells the sellers and takes 'appropriate action', without sharing details of action that is not public. Brands in Brand Registry who qualify for Project Zero can remove counterfeit listings themselves without filing a report. See our [Amazon guide](https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/amazon-report-infringement). None of these platforms publishes how many reports it takes before an account is closed, so do not count on a threshold. Report every relist. Each accepted report adds to the record against that seller. ## How to report a relisted counterfeit > **Received a counter-notice? Go to [the next section](#counter-notices) first.** 1. **Find every copy, not only the one you saw.** Search the platform for your brand name and your product type, and run your main product photos through a reverse image search. Copies that drop your name will not show up in a name search. 2. **Capture the evidence.** Dated screenshots of each new listing, with the URL and the seller name visible. 3. **File a new report for each listing.** Use the same route as the first time (VeRO on eBay, Report Infringement or Report a Violation on Amazon, the IP Reporting Portal on Etsy, the IP forms on Shopify). A new listing is new content and needs its own report. 4. **Say it is a repeat.** Where the form has a description field, give the earlier report's date and reference, and what links the new listing to it: same seller, same photos, same wording. 5. **Log it.** Record the date, reference and outcome. A dated log is what lets you show a pattern to the platform, the host or a lawyer. ## When a copyright removal comes back after a counter-notice A seller can answer a US copyright report with a counter-notice. The platform then restores the content after a waiting period unless you tell it you have started a court action: | Platform | When restored content comes back | |---|---| | eBay | After 10 business days, for US copyright reports | | Etsy | 10 business days after the counter-notice is processed, unless you start a court action or a qualifying Copyright Claims Board action | | Shopify | Copyright content 'may be reposted' if Shopify hears of no legal action within 10 to 14 business days | | Amazon | Sellers can appeal or file a counter-notice from their account; Amazon does not publish a waiting period | Trademark and counterfeit reports on eBay and Etsy have no counter-notice route, though sellers can still appeal. If the goods are fake, a trademark or counterfeit report is often the stronger route for that reason. ## Summary: Summary | Step | Where | What you need | |---|---|---| | 1. Identify the kind of relist | Your email and the new listing | Any counter-notice; the earlier report | | 2. Find every copy | Platform search and reverse image search | Your brand name and best product photos | | 3. Capture the evidence | Each new listing | Dated screenshots with seller name and URL | | 4. File a new report per listing | The platform's IP route | The same rights you used the first time | | 5. Cite the earlier report | The description field | Date, reference and what links them | | 6. Log the outcome | Your own record | Date, reference, result | If you would rather have it done for you, Takedown watches for copies after removal, a person checks every match, and our team files again once you approve each case, from $500 a month, month to month: [counterfeit listing removal](https://www.trytakedown.com/services/counterfeit-listing-removal). ## Frequently asked questions ### Why does the same counterfeit keep coming back? A takedown removes the content you reported, not the seller's ability to list again. Sellers relist under new listings or new accounts, and copyright content can be restored after a counter-notice. Platforms act against repeat infringers, but none publishes the threshold. ### Will the platform ban a seller who keeps relisting? eBay, Etsy, Shopify, Temu and TikTok Shop all say repeat infringers can lose their selling privileges or accounts. They decide case by case, so report every relist and cite the earlier report. ### Do I have to file a new report every time? Yes. A new listing is new content and needs its own report. Brands in Amazon's Project Zero can remove counterfeit listings themselves, once they qualify. ### Should I contact the seller directly? Etsy suggests contacting the seller first, which sometimes works with a small seller making an honest mistake. With a counterfeiter it rarely does, and the platform's report is the record that counts. ## Sources, checked 16 October 2026 - [eBay Help: Intellectual property and the VeRO program](https://www.ebay.com/help/policies/listing-policies/selling-policies/intellectual-property-vero-program?id=4349) - [eBay: Verified Rights Owner (VeRO) programme](https://pages.ebay.com/vero/) - [Etsy: Intellectual Property Policy](https://www.etsy.com/legal/ip/) - [Etsy: Counter notice policy](https://www.etsy.com/legal/ip-counter) - [Shopify Help Center: Intellectual property](https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/compliance/intellectual-property) - [Temu: Intellectual property policy](https://www.temu.com/intellectual-property-policy.html) - [Amazon Seller Central: Intellectual property for rights owners](https://sellercentral.amazon.com/help/hub/reference/external/GU5SQCEKADDAQRLZ) - [Amazon: Project Zero](https://sell.amazon.com/brand-registry/project-zero) --- # My IP report was rejected or nothing happened: what to do next Source: https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/ip-report-rejected-or-ignored · Updated 16 Oct 2026 ## TL;DR - Most rejected IP reports fail for one of four reasons: the wrong claim type, rights that are not valid in that country, a shop link instead of each listing, or not enough evidence. - Refile with the fix rather than resubmitting the same report: Amazon and Temu both warn that repeated inaccurate notices can cost you your reporting access. - If a platform or host does not act, go one level up: the domain registrar, Google Search for copied content, and the payment provider, which can stop processing the site's payments. - Next step: build the evidence for your claim type with the free [Takedown Evidence Checklist](https://www.trytakedown.com/tools/takedown-evidence-checklist). A report can be rejected outright, answered with a request for more information, or met with silence, and each needs a different response. Platforms publish what they will not act on, and most rejections match one of those rules. This page covers the common rejection reasons by platform, how to refile, what to do about a counter-notice, and where to go when a platform or host does not respond. ## What you'll need - **The rejection message**, word for word. It usually names the reason. - **Your original report:** what you claimed, which rights, and which links. - **Rights valid where the listing is sold**: a registration in that country for trademark, or your original work for copyright. - **Fresh evidence** for each listing, with dates and URLs. The rules on this page come from each platform's own pages, checked 16 October 2026. ## Why reports get rejected | Reason | Example | Fix | |---|---|---| | The wrong claim type | A trademark report for copied product photos | Photos and text you created are copyright; your name or logo is trademark. File the one that matches what was copied | | Rights from the wrong country | A UK registration used against amazon.com | Use a registration valid in that store's country, or switch to copyright for copied photos, which does not depend on registration | | A shop link instead of listings | The store's homepage, or an Etsy shop name | List the URL of every infringing listing or page | | Not enough evidence | 'This looks fake' | Show the copied element side by side with your original, or prove the goods are fake, for example with a test buy | | Not an IP problem | Genuine goods resold below your price | Price and distribution complaints are not IP reports on eBay or Amazon | | A pending trademark | An application, not a registration | Etsy may reject a trademark claim backed only by a pending application; on amazon.com, counterfeit reports need a federally registered mark | ## What each platform says it will not act on - **Amazon:** true compatibility statements, rights from another country, minimum advertised price and distribution agreements, parallel imports outside the countries where local law applies, and another seller offering genuine goods on a detail page you created. [Amazon guide](https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/amazon-report-infringement). - **eBay:** reports that try to stop where or how genuine products are resold, or sales below a price point. [eBay VeRO guide](https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/ebay-vero-report-counterfeit). - **Etsy:** reports missing your full contact details, linking the seller's listing as your 'authorised example', naming shops instead of listings, the wrong IP type, and trademarks that are not registered and active or are used only decoratively. [Etsy guide](https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/etsy-ip-infringement-report). - **Shopify:** a general shop link rather than the URL of each infringing page. [Shopify guide](https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/report-shopify-store-infringement). - **SHEIN:** says that failing to provide sufficient information may result in the notice being rejected, and may ask for proof of ownership, authorisation documents or evidence. ## How to refile > **No answer at all, rather than a rejection? Skip to [When nothing happens](#nothing-happens).** 1. **Read the reason.** Match the rejection message to the table above. If it asks for more information, answer that request rather than filing a new report. 2. **Change what failed.** Switch the claim type, use a registration valid in that country, or add the listing URLs and evidence that were missing. 3. **Lead with your strongest right.** For copied photos and descriptions, copyright usually holds up best because it needs no registration. For fakes sold under your name, use a trademark registration valid where the listing is sold. 4. **Describe it plainly.** Say what was copied, where, and how the reviewer can check it, in a few sentences. The [DMCA notice template](https://www.trytakedown.com/tools/dmca-takedown-notice-generator) sets out what a copyright notice must contain. 5. **Submit once, and log it.** Do not resubmit the same report repeatedly. Amazon warns that 'multiple submissions of inaccurate or inauthentic notices could lead to the removal of your submission privileges', and Temu says the same of continuous inaccurate or fake notices. Every rejected notice on Amazon also lowers the acceptance rate that Project Zero eligibility depends on (at least 90% to qualify), so accuracy matters from the first report. ## When nothing happens Marketplaces and hosts rarely publish response times, so silence for a few days is not a rejection. If a report goes unanswered, these routes act independently of the first one: - **The domain registrar**, for a website. ICANN requires registrars to take 'reasonable and prompt steps to investigate and respond appropriately to any reports of abuse'. A registrar that does not respond can be reported to ICANN through its registrar complaint form. - **The host behind Cloudflare.** Cloudflare forwards complaints to the site operator and the host and does not remove sites itself, so send the host its own notice. - **Google Search**, for copied photos and text, through Google's legal removal troubleshooter. - **The payment provider.** PayPal takes infringement reports at infringementreport@paypal.com, and Stripe has an IP notice process; both can stop processing the site's payments. Visa forwards complaints to the merchant's bank, but only once you show you have already taken enforcement steps, such as a cease-and-desist letter. - **A cease-and-desist letter** to the seller, when you can reach them. The [cease-and-desist generator](https://www.trytakedown.com/tools/cease-and-desist-letter-generator) drafts one. ## When the seller files a counter-notice A counter-notice is the seller saying your copyright report was a mistake. On eBay and Etsy the content comes back after 10 business days, and on Shopify it may be reposted after 10 to 14 business days, unless you tell the platform you have started a court action. A counter-notice means the seller gives a name and accepts a court's jurisdiction, so check the details they gave. If you are sure of your rights and the seller is real, that is the point to speak to an IP lawyer. ## Summary: Summary | Step | Where | What you need | |---|---|---| | 1. Read the reason | The rejection message | Your original report | | 2. Fix what failed | Claim type, country, links or evidence | Rights valid where the listing is sold | | 3. Refile once | The same platform route | Every listing URL and dated evidence | | 4. If nothing happens, escalate | Registrar, host, Google, payment provider | The same evidence | | 5. If a counter-notice arrives | The platform's counter-notice email | A decision on court action within the window | If you would rather have it done for you, Takedown builds the evidence for each case, a person checks every match, and our team files with the platform, the host and the registrar once you approve, from $500 a month, month to month: [counterfeit listing removal](https://www.trytakedown.com/services/counterfeit-listing-removal). ## Frequently asked questions ### Why was my Amazon IP complaint rejected? The usual reasons are rights that are not valid in that Amazon store, the wrong claim type for what you selected, or a complaint Amazon does not treat as IP, such as pricing, compatibility statements or another seller on your detail page. Amazon tells you why when it rejects a notice. ### Can I resubmit a rejected report? Yes, once you have fixed what failed. Resubmitting the same report unchanged risks your reporting access: Amazon and Temu both warn that repeated inaccurate notices can lead to the removal of submission privileges. ### How long should I wait before escalating? Platforms rarely publish response times. Keep a dated log, follow up through the same route, and use the registrar, host, Google and payment routes in parallel for websites, since they act independently. ### Do I need a lawyer? Not to file platform reports, which are designed for rights owners. A lawyer helps when a seller files a counter-notice and you need to decide on court action, or when you want to send a formal demand. ## Sources, checked 16 October 2026 - [Amazon Seller Central: Intellectual property for rights owners](https://sellercentral.amazon.com/help/hub/reference/external/GU5SQCEKADDAQRLZ) - [eBay Help: Intellectual property and the VeRO program](https://www.ebay.com/help/policies/listing-policies/selling-policies/intellectual-property-vero-program?id=4349) - [Etsy Help: Why was my IP report rejected?](https://help.etsy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360062303094) - [Shopify Help Center: Intellectual property](https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/compliance/intellectual-property) - [Temu: Intellectual property policy](https://www.temu.com/intellectual-property-policy.html) - [SHEIN: Intellectual property notice](https://us.shein.com/copyright-noticeam-a-379.html) - [ICANN: Registrar abuse reports](https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/abuse-2014-01-29-en) - [Cloudflare: Our approach to abuse](https://www.cloudflare.com/trust-hub/abuse-approach/) - [Stripe: Intellectual property notice policy](https://stripe.com/legal/ip-policy) - [Visa: Report brand abuse](https://www.visa.com/en-us/legal/report-brand-abuse) --- # SHEIN or Temu copied my design: how to report it Source: https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/design-copied-on-shein-temu · Updated 16 Oct 2026 ## TL;DR - To report a design copied on SHEIN, file through SHEIN's Intellectual Property Notice Portal; on Temu, use its IP infringement report portal. Both take reports from the rights owner or an authorised agent. - Pick the right that matches what was copied: copyright for a print, graphic or your product photos, trademark for your name or logo, and a design right for the look of the product itself. - SHEIN accepts registered and unregistered design rights as well as copyright, trademark and patents; Temu's policy names copyright, trademark and patents. - Next step: before you file, save the listing's product number and dated screenshots next to proof of when you first published your design. SHEIN and Temu both run their own reporting portals for intellectual property, and both remove listings on a valid notice. What makes a report hold up is choosing the right that actually covers what was copied: in the US, copyright protects a print or a graphic but not the cut of a garment. This page covers which right fits, the evidence to gather, and filing on each platform. ## What you'll need - **The listing URLs and product numbers.** SHEIN asks for the location of each item in enough detail to find it, and points to its 'How to find an SKU' help. - **Dated screenshots** of each listing, with the price and seller visible. - **Proof of your design and when you first published it:** your original artwork or photos, your own product page, a dated social post or a lookbook. - **Registration details**, for a trademark, registered design or patent. - **A Power of Attorney**, if you file for the rights owner on SHEIN, which requires one from agents. - **An account on each portal.** SHEIN's portal needs an account with your name, company name and email; Temu's reporting page needs you to sign in. The steps on this page follow SHEIN's and Temu's own IP pages, checked 16 October 2026. ## Pick the right that covers what was copied | What was copied | Right to claim | What to know | |---|---|---| | A print, pattern or graphic | Copyright | Protected from creation with no registration. The US Copyright Office says copyright protects artwork that can be identified separately from the useful article | | Your product photos | Copyright | The strongest claim when the listing uses your own photos | | Your brand name or logo | Trademark | Needs a registration valid where the listing is sold | | The shape or cut of a garment or product | A design right or design patent | US copyright does not protect the 'mechanical or utilitarian aspects' of a useful article such as clothing. In the US that means a design patent; in the UK and EU, design rights (below) | In the UK, the appearance of a product is protected for 3 years from the date you make it public, without registration (supplementary unregistered design), and UK design right protects the shape of a 3D product automatically for up to 10 years from first sale or 15 years from creation. In the EU, an unregistered design is protected for 3 years from when it is first made public in the EU, against deliberate copying. A US design patent protects the way an article looks and has to be granted first. > **Is it a trend rather than a copy?** If the listing shares a style but not your artwork, photos, name or a protected design, the platform is unlikely to act. Report the listings that reproduce something you can show you own. ## Report a copy on SHEIN > **Already have a SHEIN portal account? Sign in and skip to step 2.** 1. **Create a portal account.** Open SHEIN's [Intellectual Property Notice page](https://us.shein.com/copyright-noticeam-a-379.html) and follow its link to the Intellectual Property Notice Portal. Create an account with your name, company name and email. Agents must provide a Power of Attorney. 2. **Declare who you are.** Confirm that you are the rights holder, an employee of the rights holder, or an authorised agent. 3. **Identify your right.** Say whether the notice is about copyright, trademark, design rights (registered or unregistered) or patent rights, with registration details where they apply, and attach the documents that show ownership and infringement. 4. **Identify each listing.** Give the location of every infringing item in enough detail for SHEIN to find it, including the product number. 5. **Confirm and submit.** Confirm that the information is true, accurate and complete. You can track and manage your reports in the portal. SHEIN says it may ask for more documents or verification, and that a notice without sufficient information may be rejected. On a valid notice it may remove or disable access to the material and tell the party responsible that it has done so. ## Report a copy on Temu 1. **Sign in to the IP portal.** Open Temu's [intellectual property infringement report page](https://www.temu.com/intellectual-property-complaint.html) and sign in. Reports come from the rights owner or an agent with their permission. 2. **Identify your right.** Give the registration number for a trademark or patent. For copyright, describe the work, link to it and give the date you first published it. 3. **List the infringing products.** The URL of each product, the infringing parties, and what infringes. 4. **Attach the evidence.** Temu's policy names order IDs from test purchases as supporting evidence. Add your contact details: name, address, phone and email. 5. **Submit.** Temu says it investigates, removes the reported content and takes 'appropriate action against the responsible parties', without sharing details of action that is not public. Sellers can answer with a counter-notice, which Temu says it handles in line with the DMCA. Temu warns that continuous inaccurate or fake notices can cost you your submission privileges, and says it terminates repeat infringers in appropriate circumstances. Temu also runs a separate Brand Registry portal for brands. ## Evidence that holds up - **Side by side:** your original next to the listing image, with the copied element marked. - **A date that comes first:** your design's first publication should predate the listing. Keep the original files, with their metadata. - **Every listing, separately.** The same design often appears under several product numbers and sellers. - **A test purchase, if you can**, on Temu, where the policy names test-purchase order IDs as evidence. Copies also appear on AliExpress, Amazon and TikTok Shop. The [where to report counterfeits](https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/where-to-report-counterfeits) directory lists each platform's official route. ## Summary: Summary | Step | Where | What you need | |---|---|---| | 1. Choose the right | Copyright, trademark or design right | Proof of what you own and when you published it | | 2. Gather the evidence | Each listing | Product numbers, URLs and dated screenshots | | 3. Report on SHEIN | SHEIN's Intellectual Property Notice Portal | A portal account; a Power of Attorney for agents | | 4. Report on Temu | temu.com/intellectual-property-complaint.html | A signed-in account; registration numbers or your original work | | 5. Track and log | Each portal | The outcome of each report | If you would rather have it done for you, Takedown searches Temu, AliExpress, Alibaba, Amazon and other marketplaces for your products, including by photo, a person checks every match, and our team files once you approve each case, from $500 a month, month to month: [counterfeit listing removal](https://www.trytakedown.com/services/counterfeit-listing-removal). ## Frequently asked questions ### Can SHEIN or Temu legally copy my design? Not when the listing reproduces something you own: your artwork, your product photos, your registered name or logo, or a protected design. A shared style or trend without those elements is usually not something either platform will remove. ### Do I need a registered trademark or design to report? No, for copyright: a print, graphic or photo is protected from creation. SHEIN also accepts unregistered design rights. A trademark or patent claim needs the registration number. ### Is copying a clothing design copyright infringement? In the US, copyright protects prints, patterns and graphics that can be identified separately from the garment, but not its cut or shape. The shape needs a design patent in the US, or a design right in the UK or EU. ### Will SHEIN or Temu tell the seller who reported them? SHEIN says it may notify the party responsible that the material was removed. Temu says it does not share details of actions that are not already public. ## Sources, checked 16 October 2026 - [SHEIN: Intellectual property notice](https://us.shein.com/copyright-noticeam-a-379.html) - [Temu: Intellectual property policy](https://www.temu.com/intellectual-property-policy.html) - [Temu: Intellectual property infringement report](https://www.temu.com/intellectual-property-complaint.html) - [US Copyright Office: Useful articles](https://www.copyright.gov/register/va-useful.html) - [USPTO: Design patents](https://www.uspto.gov/patents/basics/apply/design-patent) - [GOV.UK: Design right](https://www.gov.uk/design-right) - [Benelux Office for Intellectual Property: Community design (EU)](https://boip.int/en/node/141) --- # Where to report counterfeits and copycat stores, platform by platform Source: https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/where-to-report-counterfeits · Updated 15 Oct 2026 ## TL;DR - Report a copy where it lives: a listing goes to the marketplace; a copycat website goes to its store builder, then its host, then its registrar. - Almost every platform takes reports only from the rights owner or an agent they authorise. Trademark and counterfeit claims usually need a registration number; copied photos and product text can go in as copyright claims without one. - This directory links the official form for 157 platforms, each read on the platform's own site on 14 Oct 2026. 17 platforms where we could not find an official route are left out rather than guessed. - Takedown can file these reports for you, and files nothing until you approve each case. Each platform runs its own reporting route, with its own name (VeRO on eBay, Report a Violation on Amazon, IPPC on TikTok Shop, IPP on Alibaba and AliExpress) and its own rules about who may file. The tables below list them by type: marketplaces, store builders, hosts, registrars, payment providers, ad platforms, social media, search engines and app stores. A step-by-step guide is linked wherever we have written one. ## What you'll need - **The exact URL of each copy.** A listing link, not the shop's home page. Shopify, Etsy and most marketplaces reject a bare store link. - **Your registration numbers** for trademark claims: the office (USPTO, UKIPO, EUIPO), the number and the classes. - **Links to your original work** for copyright claims: your product page or the photo's original location. - **Screenshots with the URL and the date visible**, in case the page changes before the platform looks. - **A letter of authorisation** if someone other than the rights owner is filing. > Not sure who hosts a site? The free [abuse contact finder](https://www.trytakedown.com/tools/abuse-contact-finder) looks up the host and registrar abuse addresses for any domain, and the [DMCA notice generator](https://www.trytakedown.com/tools/dmca-takedown-notice-generator) drafts the notice. ## Marketplaces General marketplaces in the US, UK and EU. | Platform | Where to report | Who can file | The rule to know | |---|---|---|---| | [Amazon](https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/amazon-report-infringement) | [Amazon Brand Registry (Report a Violation tool); Report Infringement form for rights owners not enrolled](https://www.amazon.com/report/infringement) | Intellectual property rights owners and their agents.

Agents upload a letter of authorisation, which Etsy checks before the report can be submitted. | Etsy may reject a trademark claim backed only by a pending application; it needs a valid, active, registered mark, and listings must be reported by listing URL rather than shop name. | | Printful | [DMCA Takedown Notice + IP Registry](https://www.printful.com/policies/dmca-notice) | Copyright or trademark holders or their authorised representatives; the IP Registry is for rights holders, brand owners or their representatives. | Printful fulfils products for merchants' own stores (Shopify, Etsy and others), so a notice to Printful stops production but the listing on the merchant's channel needs its own report. Trademark claims go by email to content@printful.com. Processing can take up to 10 business days. | | Printify | [DMCA Notice / Trademark Violation Form + IP Registry](https://printify.com/dmca-notice) | The copyright or trademark owner or an authorised representative. | Copyright and trademark use separate forms: copyright at printify.com/dmca-notice, trademark at printify.typeform.com/to/pEcir4.

On most marketplaces, yes, for a trademark or counterfeit claim: the form asks for a registration number, and Amazon Brand Registry requires one. Copied product photos and descriptions can be reported as copyright infringement without registering anything. ### Can someone else report infringement for my brand? Yes, if you authorise them. Every platform listed here accepts reports from the rights owner or an agent acting for them, usually with a letter of authorisation or, on some marketplaces, an approved agent account. ### What if the platform rejects my report? Most rejections are about evidence: the wrong right claimed, a missing registration number, or a link to the store rather than the listing. Fix the specific gap and resubmit. A counter-notice is different: the seller disputes the claim, and under the DMCA the platform can restore the content after 10 to 14 business days unless you show it that you have filed a lawsuit. ### How do I take down a whole fake website, not just a listing? Report it to the store builder if it uses one, then to the host and the registrar, and to the payment provider taking its orders. Our [fake website takedown guide](https://www.trytakedown.com/services/fake-website-takedown) explains the order and why. --- # The best brand protection companies and services in 2026 Source: https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/best-brand-protection-services · Updated 16 Oct 2026 ## TL;DR - The best brand protection companies in 2026 for consumer brands, in our order: Takedown, Brand Protector, IP Moat, StoreLock, Recon, Knockoff, IPzest, Red Points, MarqVision, Corsearch, BrandShield and Bolster. Eight of the twelve publish a price; MarqVision, Corsearch, BrandShield and Bolster quote after a call. - For a brand that wants copies filed for it, Takedown is first: a person checks every match, nothing is filed until you approve the case, its team files with the platform, host and registrar, and it watches US trademark filings in your classes, from $500 a month, month to month. - If you will review and file reports yourself, a self-serve tool from $19 a month (StoreLock, cloned Shopify stores only) to $199 a month (Brand Protector, ten marketplaces plus lookalike domains and USPTO and EUIPO filings) is the cheaper buy; IP Moat files the listings you approve from $105 a month. - For app stores, trademark clearance and watch beyond the US, or partner law firms behind the takedowns, look at Red Points, Corsearch and MarqVision. Every price and feature here is from the vendor's own site, with the date it was read. Brand protection is the work of finding copies of your brand online, such as counterfeit listings, cloned stores and lookalike domains, and getting them removed through each platform's, host's or registrar's own reporting process. This page is for a consumer brand choosing between software it runs and a service that files for it, ranked with a small or fast-growing team in mind; an established brand with a legal team should read [the ranking for established consumer brands](https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/best-brand-protection-established-brands), and an Amazon-first seller [the Amazon ranking](https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/best-amazon-brand-protection-services). We run Takedown and rank it first, so this is partisan. Every claim is sourced to the vendor's own site and dated; where we can't back something up, we left it out. Where a vendor does not publish a price, we say so. ## What counts as brand protection A brand protection service finds unauthorised uses of your brand (a counterfeit listing, a store that copied your catalogue, a domain one letter off yours, an ad using your photos) and gets each one removed through the reporting route the platform, host or registrar already runs. Some vendors sell software you run; others are teams that file for you. Four things often get filed under the same name and are not it: - **A lawyer's UDRP complaint.** Asking a panel to transfer a domain registered in bad faith is a legal proceeding, not a takedown. It is worth asking a solicitor. - **A scam checker for shoppers.** A site that tells a buyer whether a store looks safe removes nothing. Our own [Fake Shopping Website Checker](https://www.trytakedown.com/tools/fake-store-checker) is a free tool, not the service. - **Creator piracy removal.** Getting pirated video, courses or books out of Google is a different market, served by companies such as [Takedown.co](https://takedown.co/), a separate company from Takedown. - **Policing your own resellers.** A genuine product sold below your price, or by a seller you did not authorise, is not a counterfeit. Most platforms will not act on it as an IP report. ## What a small brand needs from it Before any vendor, these are the questions the rest of this page is ranked against. - **The channels your copies are actually on.** For most DTC brands that is cloned storefronts and lookalike domains plus one or two marketplaces. Social media accounts matter for some brands and not others. Count first: run your domain through the [Lookalike Domain Finder](https://www.trytakedown.com/tools/lookalike-domain-finder) and search your bestsellers on Amazon and TikTok Shop. - **A clear answer to who files.** Self-serve tools are cheap until you count the hours. If nobody can spend a few hours a week reviewing matches and filing reports, the price that matters is a managed one. - **Your approval before anything is sent.** A report against a genuine reseller, or a rejected claim, counts against you on platforms such as Amazon. - **A price you can see, or a quote before a contract.** Monthly terms let you stop when the copies stop. - **Evidence in every case and someone to chase refusals.** Platforms reject a share of reports. Ask who resubmits them and whether it costs extra. - **Your registrations.** Counterfeit and trademark claims need a registered trademark in practice. Copied photos and product descriptions can be reported as copyright infringement without one. ## The brand protection companies, ranked *Prices from each vendor's own site, read 4 October 2026 and re-read 14 October 2026* | Service | Best for | Who files | Published price | |---|---|---|---| | [Takedown](#takedown) | Copycat stores plus marketplace copies, checked by a person | Our team, after you approve each case | From $500/month | | [Brand Protector](#brand-protector) | Founders who will file, on ten marketplaces | You sign off; some filings you finish | $199/month or $1,499/year | | [IP Moat](#ip-moat) | Copies on one marketplace, filed for you | IP Moat, after you approve each listing | From $105/month | | [StoreLock](#storelock) | Shopify clone alerts on a small budget | You; its team on Enterprise | From $19/month plus $0.20 per image | | [Recon](#recon) | Free clone and typosquat alerts | You | Free; Pro $50/month | | [Knockoff](#knockoff) | Stolen product photos, large catalogue | Knockoff, as your agent | $799/month | | [IPzest](#ipzest) | A no-card trial across marketplaces, social and ads | You; its team on Enterprise | From $148/month | | [Red Points](#red-points) | Regional marketplaces, budget above $1,250 a month | You (self-serve) or its team (managed) | Self-serve from $1,250/month; managed quoted | | [MarqVision](#marqvision) | Repeat sellers, with law firms behind the takedowns | MarqVision | Not published | | [Corsearch](#corsearch) | Legal teams that also need trademark clearance | Its analysts and your team | Not published | | [BrandShield](#brandshield) | Phishing and impersonation as well as counterfeits | BrandShield | Not published | | [Bolster](#bolster) | Security teams removing phishing sites and fake apps | Bolster, mostly automated | Not published | Takedown is first because it is the only service on this list whose own site states all four of these: a person checks every match before you see it; nothing is filed in your name until you approve the case; its own team files, with the platform, the host and the registrar; and new US trademark filings in your goods classes are watched. Brand Protector watches filings but you review every match and finish some filings yourself. Knockoff files for you and lists trademark filings, under a one-time letter of authorisation; approving each case is not described on the pages we read. Each of those is checkable on the vendors' pages listed under sources. The same service covers copycat stores and lookalike domains, Amazon (.com, .co.uk, .de and .fr), eBay, AliExpress, Alibaba, Temu and TikTok Shop listings, Meta ads, and Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube and Threads accounts, on month-to-month terms with a free 360° report before you pay, and we publish [the evidence from real cases](https://www.trytakedown.com/research) with domains, prices and dates. After Takedown the order is by fit for a small DTC brand: how much of the usual problem (cloned stores and marketplace copies) a service covers, then whether you can see the price before a call. Website-only apps rank below services that also cover marketplaces, however cheap they are. Enterprise suites come last because they solve problems a small brand rarely has yet, not because they do the job worse. ### Takedown (our service) https://www.trytakedown.com/ - **Best for:** A DTC brand whose copies are cloned stores and lookalike domains as much as marketplace listings, which wants a person to check every match and to approve each case before anyone files. - **What it does:** Searches for copycat stores through domain variants, certificate logs, Google search and reverse image search, scans Amazon (up to nine storefronts), eBay (up to eight), AliExpress, Alibaba, Temu, TikTok Shop, DHgate and Chrono24 listings, plus Google Lens matches for your photos on any marketplace, checks Meta and TikTok ads, searches Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube and Threads for accounts using your name, and watches US (USPTO) trademark filings in your classes. A person checks every match, you approve each case, and our team files with the platform, host and registrar. See [fake website takedown](https://www.trytakedown.com/services/fake-website-takedown) and [counterfeit listing removal](https://www.trytakedown.com/services/counterfeit-listing-removal). - **Price:** From $500 a month, month to month with no annual lock-in. The quote comes with a free 360° report of what is copying your brand. **The better buy when** copycat storefronts are the main problem and you want someone else to file without giving up approval of each case. We publish [breakdowns of real copycat operations](https://www.trytakedown.com/research) with the domains, prices and dates, and the same evidence goes into every case before you approve it. **Honest trade-offs:** its trademark watch covers US (USPTO) filings only, where Brand Protector also watches the EUIPO and Corsearch sells worldwide clearance. Social accounts are found by searching Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube and Threads for your brand name, so an account that never uses the name is missed. Etsy, Walmart, DHgate and SHEIN are not scanned directly, only reached through reverse image search. App stores are not covered, and there is no legal arm: it files with platforms, hosts and registrars, and does not litigate the way MarqVision's partner firms do. ### Brand Protector https://brandprotector.io/ - **Best for:** A founder who will review every match and sign off each notice, and wants ten marketplaces, lookalike domains and trademark filings watched for one flat monthly price. - **What it does:** Daily scans of 16 surfaces: Amazon, eBay, Walmart, Etsy, AliExpress, Flipkart, Meesho, TikTok Shop, Temu, SHEIN, Google Shopping, Google search, AI shopping answers, lookalike domains, USPTO and EUIPO trademark filings, and image clusters. It drafts evidence packs and notices, but 'nothing files itself': a notice goes out only after you approve it, and some platforms need you to finish the filing. MAP price monitoring is included. It was built by the founder of the pet-supplement brand Wuffes. - **Price:** $199/month or $1,499/year, with 'no per-detection fees' and 'no monthly takedown cap'. 7-day free trial, no card. Read 14 October 2026. **Honest trade-offs:** the flat price buys software, not hours. You review every detection, and on some platforms you finish the filing. Social media accounts and app stores are not among its 16 surfaces. Its Shopify App Store listing launched on 14 September 2026 and had no reviews when read on 14 October. **The better buy when** someone on your team has a few hours a week for reports. It names more marketplaces than Takedown, watches EUIPO filings as well as the USPTO, where Takedown watches the USPTO only, and covers Flipkart and Meesho for brands selling into India. ### IP Moat https://ipmoat.ai/ - **Best for:** A Shopify brand whose copies sit mostly on one marketplace, which wants to approve each listing and have the removal filed for about $100 a month. - **What it does:** Scans marketplaces for copies of the products you sync from Shopify. You approve listings in a dashboard; IP Moat's system and team file the removals and handle objections, escalations and resubmissions. Covers Amazon, eBay, AliExpress, Alibaba, Etsy, Walmart, Temu and TikTok Shop (30+ marketplaces on Premium), plus Meta ads, Google Play, and Shopify stores on Premium. - **Price:** Essential $105/month (one marketplace, up to 40 removals, $35 per extra marketplace); Premium $529/month (30+ marketplaces, up to 200 removals); Enterprise $1,350/month (up to 500 removals). Monthly, cancel any time. Read 4 October, re-read 14 October 2026. Its Shopify listing shows a six-marketplace Essential at $280/month. **Honest trade-offs:** removals are capped per plan, and copies spreading past one marketplace push you towards Premium at $529. Its own site and its Shopify listing describe Essential differently, so check which applies when you sign up. Social media accounts and trademark filings are not among its listed channels, and website coverage is limited to Shopify stores on Premium. **The better buy when** you would rather approve than file. It is the lowest published price on this page for a service whose team files the removals, which suits a brand whose copies are concentrated on Amazon or one other marketplace. ### StoreLock https://storelock.app/ - **Best for:** A Shopify store owner who wants alerts on cloned storefronts and stolen product photos for under $50 a month, and will send the reports. - **What it does:** A Shopify app that detects store clones, impersonation domains and reuse of your product photos across the web, with ready-made abuse report packages you send from its dashboard. Enterprise adds assisted enforcement, where its team files. Custom websites were listed as coming soon on 4 October 2026. - **Price:** Premium $19/month plus $0.20 per monitored image (watching 50 photos costs $29/month); Enterprise $399/month with unlimited image monitoring and assisted enforcement. 3-day free trial. Read 14 October 2026. **Honest trade-offs:** websites only. There is no marketplace, social media or trademark coverage, so it does nothing about Amazon or TikTok Shop copies. On Premium you send every takedown yourself, and the per-image fee rises with the number of photos you watch. **The better buy when** cloned Shopify stores are the whole problem and the budget is small. It is the cheapest paid option on this page, and its Shopify listing dates from 30 June 2023, a longer public record than the other clone apps here. ### Recon https://recon.bot/ - **Best for:** A Shopify merchant who wants to know, for nothing, whether anyone has cloned the store, and will send every notice. - **What it does:** A theme detection block flags when your storefront code turns up on another site, and it checks typosquat domains across 1,500+ top-level domains. It prepares notices and templates you review and send: 'Recon does not automatically send takedowns'. It also checks your SPF, DKIM and DMARC email records. - **Price:** Free plan $0/month (weekly scans of 10 lookalike domains); Pro $50/month or $480/year (daily checks of 100 lookalike domains, 200 tracked), with a 14-day trial. Billed through Shopify. Read 14 October 2026. **Honest trade-offs:** it never sends a takedown, so every notice is your work. It covers websites and domains only. Its Shopify listing launched on 29 December 2025 and had no reviews when read on 14 October. **The better buy when** you do not yet know whether you have a clone problem. The free plan answers that before you pay anyone, including us. ### Knockoff https://knockoff.co/ - **Best for:** A Shopify brand with a large catalogue whose own product photos are lifted by copycat stores, which wants the filing done at one published price. - **What it does:** Rescans the web daily for stolen product photos and copycat Shopify storefronts, builds each case with archived proof, and files as your authorised agent under a one-time letter of authorisation. A match only counts when 'your photo appears in the seller's gallery', and weak cases are not filed. The marketplaces it names are eBay, Walmart and Temu; it also lists trademark filings. - **Price:** $799/month, billed monthly, unlimited products and daily rescans, 'no contracts or quotes'. Read 14 October 2026. **Honest trade-offs:** Amazon is not among the marketplaces it names. Copies that use new photography fall outside its matching rule. Its site does not publish a business address. At $799 it costs more than any self-serve tool above it. **The better buy when** photo theft is the problem and the catalogue is big. It files for you at a single published price with no product limit, so 2,000 products cost the same as 20. ### IPzest https://ipzest.app/ - **Best for:** A brand with someone in-house to review matches, which wants to trial marketplace, social, domain and ad monitoring this week without a card or a sales call. - **What it does:** Self-serve monitoring from a dashboard across marketplaces including Amazon, eBay and Etsy, social media, domains and ads. You review and file on the lower plans; managed enforcement is on Enterprise. - **Price:** Professional $148/month (daily core monitoring), Business $398/month (adds on-demand scans), Intelligence $898/month (6-hour monitoring), Enterprise $2,498/month (managed enforcement, 100 takedowns a month). Annual billing saves about 17%. 14-day trial, no card. Read 14 October 2026. **Honest trade-offs:** having reports filed for you costs $2,498 a month on the 14 October pricing page. Monitoring frequency and manual checks have monthly allowances that differ by plan. **The better buy when** social media accounts need watching at a published price under $200 a month, which neither Brand Protector nor IP Moat lists. ### Red Points https://www.redpoints.com/ - **Best for:** A brand selling across many regional marketplaces, with more than $1,250 a month to spend, that wants to choose between running takedowns itself and handing them to a managed team. - **What it does:** Detection and takedown across marketplaces (it claims 5,000+, including Amazon, eBay, AliExpress, Walmart, Temu, TikTok Shop, Shopee and MercadoLibre), fake websites and domains, social media, ads and mobile apps. Run it yourself on the self-serve plan, or have it 'fully managed by experts'. Takedowns are flat-fee, not metered. - **Price:** Self-serve: Brand Protection Plan $938/month, plus $174/month for one trademark and a fee per marketplace (Amazon's 19 domains $285/month; all marketplaces and domains $820/month). Billed monthly, no setup fee; the order form asks for at least $1,250 a month. Re-read 14 October 2026. Managed tiers (Starter, Professional, Enterprise) are quoted on request; Starter covers up to 10 trademarks. **Honest trade-offs:** the $938 plan fee sits on top of trademarks and marketplaces, so the self-serve floor is $1,250 a month. Fake website protection is an add-on in the self-serve configurator. On the managed tiers read on 4 October, fake websites and social media were add-ons on Starter, and ads and domains on Professional, so check what your quoted tier includes. Term length is not published. **The better buy when** you sell into Latin America or South-East Asia. The configurator prices Shopee, MercadoLibre, Lazada, OLX, Carousell and Flipkart alongside Amazon, and the Enterprise tier adds a revenue recovery programme. ### MarqVision https://www.marqvision.com/ - **Best for:** A mid-size consumer brand whose counterfeits keep coming back from the same sellers, which wants partner law firms behind the takedowns. - **What it does:** Its Marq AI platform detects and enforces across marketplaces, websites and domains, search listings, social media and gaming platforms, alongside trademark management. MarqLaw partner law firms handle litigation, revenue recovery, investigations and offline raids. Published customers include Wella, Panasonic, Nissan and Lush. It offers a free brand scan (MarqRadar). - **Price:** Not published ('customised pricing based on your specific needs'). Read 14 October 2026. **Honest trade-offs:** no public price or contract terms, and its customer list leans towards larger brands than most first-year DTC labels. Paid ads and app stores are not among its listed channels. **The better buy when** a seller ignores removals and keeps relisting, and you want litigation, investigations or raids on offline sellers in Asia from the same supplier rather than briefing a separate firm. ### Corsearch https://corsearch.com/ - **Best for:** A brand with an in-house legal team that wants trademark screening, clearance and watch from the same supplier as its online enforcement. - **What it does:** AI detection with expert oversight on its Zeal 2.0 platform, across marketplaces, websites and domains, social media, app stores and search engines. Trademark screening, clearance and watch through TrademarkNow. Investigations 360 and Revenue Recovery 360 go after the people behind repeat infringement. It absorbed Yellow Brand Protection, whose domain now redirects to Corsearch. - **Price:** Not published; buying starts with a demo request. Read 14 October 2026. **Honest trade-offs:** an enterprise suite with an enterprise sales process, and separate products for trademarks, brand protection and content protection to scope. Paid ads are not named as a channel of their own. **The better buy when** you need clearance before a launch and enforcement after it. No small-brand tool on this page does trademark clearance. ### BrandShield https://www.brandshield.com/ - **Best for:** A brand whose customers are hit by phishing sites and fake profiles as well as counterfeit listings, with a legal, compliance or security team to run the programme. - **What it does:** AI detection plus enforcement by its own experts, with a 24/7 security operations centre running takedowns. Covers phishing sites, lookalike domains and copycat websites, counterfeit listings and grey-market sellers, fake social accounts, paid-ad scams, rogue apps, the dark web and AI platforms. - **Price:** Not published; you request a demo. Read 14 October 2026. **Honest trade-offs:** much of the platform (dark web monitoring, executive impersonation, external cybersecurity) is security tooling that a brand focused on counterfeits may not need. **The better buy when** scams against your customers spike outside office hours and you want a staffed operations centre on them, not your own team. ### Bolster https://bolster.ai/ - **Best for:** A security or fraud team that needs phishing sites and fake apps aimed at its customers taken down within minutes. - **What it does:** Automated detection and takedown across lookalike domains and fake websites, social media, app stores, marketplaces, fraudulent ads, email and the dark web. It says 75% of digital threats are eliminated in under 60 seconds. It also runs CheckPhish, a free URL scanner. - **Price:** Not published. Read 14 October 2026. **Honest trade-offs:** it is built for security and fraud buyers. Counterfeit marketplace work is one module among domains, apps, social media and the dark web. **The better buy when** phishing is the bigger risk than counterfeits, or your customers already report suspicious emails to an abuse mailbox that someone has to triage. ## Decision questions **Do you want someone else to file?** Takedown, Knockoff, MarqVision and Red Points' managed tiers: yes. IP Moat: its team files the listings you approve. Brand Protector, Recon, StoreLock Premium and IPzest below Enterprise: you file. **Are your copies stores, marketplace listings, or both?** Stores only: StoreLock, Recon, Knockoff. Mainly marketplaces: IP Moat, Brand Protector. Both: Takedown, and Red Points with its website add-on. **Do fake social media accounts matter to you?** Red Points, IPzest, MarqVision, Corsearch, BrandShield and Bolster list social media, and Takedown searches Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube and Threads for accounts using your name. Brand Protector and StoreLock do not. **Do you need trademark filings watched?** Brand Protector watches the USPTO and EUIPO, Knockoff lists trademark filings, and Corsearch sells full clearance and watch. Takedown watches US (USPTO) filings that use your brand name in your goods classes; IP Moat and StoreLock do not watch filings. **Do you need to see a price before a call?** Published: Takedown (from $500 a month, with the filing done for you), Recon, StoreLock, IP Moat, IPzest, Brand Protector, Knockoff, and Red Points' self-serve plan. Quoted: MarqVision, Corsearch, BrandShield, Bolster. **Do you sell outside the UK, EU and US?** Red Points prices Shopee, MercadoLibre, Lazada and other regional marketplaces. Brand Protector lists Flipkart and Meesho for India. The rest name mainly Western platforms. ## Summary: Which one to pick - Copycat stores and marketplace copies filed for you, with a person checking each match and your approval on each case → [Takedown](#takedown). - You will file yourself and sell on several marketplaces → [Brand Protector](#brand-protector). - Your copies sit on one marketplace and you want them filed for about $100 a month → [IP Moat](#ip-moat). - Only cloned Shopify stores, on a small budget → [StoreLock](#storelock), or [Recon](#recon)'s free plan to find out first. - Copycat stores are using your own photos across a large catalogue → [Knockoff](#knockoff). - You need marketplaces in Latin America or South-East Asia → [Red Points](#red-points). - Sellers will not stop and you want lawyers behind the takedowns → [MarqVision](#marqvision). - You have a legal team and need trademark clearance → [Corsearch](#corsearch). - Phishing and fake apps aimed at your customers → [BrandShield](#brandshield) or [Bolster](#bolster). - A domain registered in bad faith that you want transferred → a solicitor, for a UDRP complaint. ## Frequently asked questions ### What is the best brand protection company? It depends on who will do the filing. For a consumer brand that wants copies found, checked by a person and filed for it, with approval on every case, we rank Takedown first, from $500 a month, month to month. If someone on your team will file, Brand Protector ($199 a month) and IP Moat (from $105 a month, its team files what you approve) are the cheapest published options. For trademark clearance beyond the US or law firms behind the takedowns, look at Corsearch and MarqVision. ### How much do brand protection services cost? On the vendors' own sites, read in October 2026: Recon is free with a $50 Pro plan, StoreLock from $19 a month, IP Moat from $105, IPzest from $148, Brand Protector $199, Takedown from $500, Knockoff $799, and Red Points' self-serve plan from $1,250 a month. MarqVision, Corsearch, BrandShield and Bolster do not publish a price. ### What is the difference between brand protection software and a brand protection service? Software finds copies and leaves the reviewing and filing to you. A service has people who check the matches and file the reports with the platform, host or registrar for you. Some vendors sell both, such as Red Points' self-serve and managed tiers. ### Is Takedown the same company as Takedown.co? No. Takedown (trytakedown.com) is a brand protection service for consumer brands, operated by Factory App Inc. Takedown.co is a separate, unaffiliated company that removes pirated creator content. ## Sources, checked 4 October 2026, re-read 14 October 2026 - [Brand Protector: homepage and pricing](https://brandprotector.io/) - [Brand Protector: Shopify App Store listing](https://apps.shopify.com/brand-protector) - [IP Moat: pricing](https://ipmoat.ai/pages/pricing) - [IP Moat: Shopify App Store listing](https://apps.shopify.com/ip-moat) - [Takedown: fake website takedown](https://www.trytakedown.com/services/fake-website-takedown) - [StoreLock: homepage](https://storelock.app/) - [StoreLock: Shopify App Store listing](https://apps.shopify.com/storelock) - [Recon: homepage](https://recon.bot/) - [Recon: pricing](https://recon.bot/pricing/) - [Recon: Shopify App Store listing](https://apps.shopify.com/recon-bot) - [Knockoff: homepage](https://knockoff.co/) - [IPzest: pricing](https://ipzest.app/pricing) - [Red Points: pricing](https://www.redpoints.com/pricing/) - [Red Points: self-serve plans](https://www.redpoints.com/self-serve/) - [MarqVision: homepage](https://www.marqvision.com/) - [MarqVision: pricing](https://www.marqvision.com/pricing) - [Corsearch: homepage](https://corsearch.com/) - [Corsearch: about](https://corsearch.com/about/) - [Corsearch: Yellow Brand Protection](https://corsearch.com/yellow/) - [BrandShield: homepage](https://www.brandshield.com/) - [Bolster: homepage](https://bolster.ai/) - [Takedown.co: homepage](https://takedown.co/) --- # The best Amazon brand protection services and tools in 2026 Source: https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/best-amazon-brand-protection-services · Updated 15 Oct 2026 ## TL;DR - For an Amazon brand that wants copied listings filed for it, Takedown is first here: a person checks every listing, including Google Lens matches for your photos, nothing is filed until you approve the case, its team files, and it watches US trademark filings in your classes. - Amazon Brand Registry is free with a registered or pending trademark and worth enrolling in whatever else you buy, because most services, Takedown included, file through the same Report a Violation tool. - If you will approve or file reports yourself, IP Moat (from $105 a month for one marketplace, its team files what you approve) and Brand Protector ($199 a month, unlimited, you file) are the published-price options. - For all 19 Amazon domains in one plan (Red Points), unauthorised-reseller programmes (Gray Falkon, from $6,500 a month) or lawyers behind repeat sellers (MarqVision), those are the specialists; Takedown searches up to nine Amazon storefronts in your scan scope. - Every price and feature here is from the vendor's own site, with the date it was read; Takedown starts at $500 a month, month to month, with a free 360° report of what is copying your brand. Amazon brand protection is finding listings on Amazon that use your trademark, your photos or your product without permission, and getting them removed through Amazon's own reporting tools. This page is for a brand selling on Amazon that has to decide whether Amazon's free tools are enough, and which service to add if they are not. We run Takedown and rank it first, so this is partisan. Every claim is sourced to the vendor's own site and dated; where we can't back something up, we left it out. Where a vendor does not publish a price, we say so. ## What counts as Amazon brand protection On Amazon, brand protection means reporting listings that infringe your trademark, copyright or patent through Report a Violation (inside Brand Registry) or the public Report Infringement form, and keeping counterfeits off your own listing. Paid services file through those same doors. What you pay them for is finding the listings, building the evidence, choosing the right claim type and keeping your acceptance rate high. Three things are not it: - **Removing a genuine reseller.** A listing for a genuine item you simply did not authorise is a different problem, and Amazon will reject it as an IP report. Minimum advertised price policing is sold separately, by tools such as [TrackStreet](https://www.trackstreet.com/). - **Seller account reinstatement.** Getting a suspended seller account back is account-health work between you and Amazon. It removes nobody else's listing. - **Creator piracy removal.** Pirated video and content are handled by companies such as [Takedown.co](https://takedown.co/), a separate company from Takedown. ## What an Amazon brand needs from it - **A registered trademark.** Brand Registry needs an active registration or a pending application filed through Amazon's IP Accelerator, and counterfeit claims on amazon.com need a federally registered mark. Without one, copied photos and descriptions can still be reported as copyright. - **The Amazon stores you sell in.** amazon.com alone, or .co.uk, .de and .fr as well. Coverage varies by vendor and by plan. - **Matching on your photos, not only your name.** Many copies drop or swap the logo and never use the brand name. - **The right claim type and a high acceptance rate.** Rejected notices count against you, including for Project Zero, which needs a 90% acceptance rate to join. - **A clear answer to who files.** You, a Registered Agent you add in Brand Registry, or an agent using the Report Infringement form with your authorisation. - **Test buys where Amazon asks for them.** Reporting a specific counterfeit offer through the Report Infringement form needs a test buy. ## The options, ranked for an Amazon seller *Prices from Amazon's and vendors' own sites, read 4 October 2026 and re-read 14 October 2026* | Option | Best for | Who files | Published price | |---|---|---|---| | [Takedown](#takedown) | Copies that use your photos, not your name | Our team, after you approve each case | From $500/month | | [Amazon Brand Registry](#brand-registry) | Every trademarked brand, first | You, or a Registered Agent | Free (Transparency codes are paid) | | [IP Moat](#ip-moat) | Copies on Amazon alone, filed cheaply | IP Moat, after you approve each listing | From $105/month for one marketplace | | [Brand Protector](#brand-protector) | Unlimited volume, you file | You sign off; some filings you finish | $199/month or $1,499/year | | [Red Points](#red-points) | All 19 Amazon domains at a published price | You (self-serve) or its team (managed) | About $1,397/month self-serve for one trademark on Amazon; managed quoted | | [IPzest](#ipzest) | A no-card trial before paying | You; its team on Enterprise | From $148/month | | [Gray Falkon](#gray-falkon) | Unauthorised resellers and counterfeiters at scale | Gray Falkon | From $6,500/month | | [MarqVision](#marqvision) | Repeat sellers, with law firms behind the takedowns | MarqVision | Not published | Takedown is first because it is the only service on this list whose own site states all four of these: a person checks every listing before you see it; nothing is filed in your name until you approve the case; its own team files, through Amazon's process with your registrations attached; and new US trademark filings in your goods classes are watched. Brand Protector watches filings but you review every match and finish some filings yourself. IP Moat files the listings you approve, but its site does not describe its own review of each one or a filing watch. Each of those is checkable on the vendors' pages listed under sources. Takedown matches on your product photos through Google Lens as well as your name, searches amazon.com, .co.uk, .de and .fr plus eBay, AliExpress, Alibaba, Temu and TikTok Shop, copycat stores and Meta ads, and works month to month with a free 360° report before you pay. Brand Registry is second only because it is a programme, not a service: it finds nothing for you, and you should enrol in it whatever else you buy. After that the order is the lowest published price that covers Amazon properly, then managed services by how much of an Amazon seller's problem they cover. Gray Falkon and MarqVision rank last because they are priced and built for larger brands, not because they do the job worse. ### Takedown (our service) https://www.trytakedown.com/services/counterfeit-listing-removal - **Best for:** A brand whose Amazon copies use its product photos without its name, which wants a person to check every listing and to approve each case before anyone files. - **What it does:** Searches amazon.com, .co.uk, .de and .fr by default, and .it, .es, .nl, .se and .pl when you add them to your scan scope, plus Google Lens matches for your product photos wherever they appear, and eBay, AliExpress, Alibaba, Temu, TikTok Shop, DHgate and Chrono24 listings, copycat stores, and Meta and TikTok ads. It also searches Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube and Threads for accounts using your brand name, and watches US (USPTO) trademark filings in your goods classes. A person checks every listing, you approve each case, and our team files through Amazon's process with your registrations attached, and with the host and registrar for copycat stores. - **Price:** From $500 a month, month to month with no annual lock-in. The quote comes with a free 360° report of what is copying your brand. **The better buy when** the copies never use your brand name. In our [Kitsch case](https://www.trytakedown.com/research/kitsch-air-dry-cream-lookalikes) we found 37 lookalike listings, 18 of them with the logo removed or swapped, and the [TRIP case](https://www.trytakedown.com/research/trip-amazon-brand-listings) found 24+ listings selling under another seller's brand in TRIP's photos. **Honest trade-offs:** up to nine Amazon storefronts in your scope rather than every one, where Red Points prices all 19. Its trademark watch covers US (USPTO) filings only. Etsy, Walmart and SHEIN are reached through reverse image search, and app stores are not covered. There is no legal arm, so a seller who relists after every removal is MarqVision's kind of case, not ours. ### Amazon Brand Registry https://sell.amazon.com/brand-registry - **Best for:** Any brand with a registered or pending trademark that sells on Amazon, before it pays anyone else. - **What it does:** Report a Violation for IP, policy and regulatory issues; Amazon's automated protections; Project Zero, which lets qualifying brands remove counterfeit listings themselves, in 22 countries; and Transparency serial codes that Amazon checks before a unit ships. You file, or a Registered Agent you add does. It needs an active registered trademark, or a pending application filed through Amazon's IP Accelerator, and your logo on the products. - **Price:** 'Free to enroll and use'; Project Zero and automated protections are free. Transparency codes are paid per code, at a price not shown on the page. Read 4 October, re-read 14 October 2026. **Honest trade-offs:** it does not find the listings for you, it covers Amazon only, and every notice is your work. Project Zero needs Report a Violation use in the last six months with at least a 90% acceptance rate, and you must keep 99% accuracy to stay in. Without Brand Registry you can still use Amazon's [Report Infringement form](https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/amazon-report-infringement), but reporting a specific offer needs a test buy, and counterfeit reports need a registered trademark. **The better buy when** you can keep up with the reports yourself. Try it for a month before paying for any service on this page; if the copies stay in the dozens, you may not need anyone else. ### IP Moat https://ipmoat.ai/ - **Best for:** A Shopify brand whose copies are on Amazon alone, which wants to approve each listing and have the removal filed for about $100 a month. - **What it does:** Scans marketplaces for copies of the products you sync from Shopify. You approve listings in a dashboard; IP Moat's system and team file the removals and handle objections, escalations and resubmissions. Amazon on Essential; eBay, Etsy, Alibaba, AliExpress, Walmart, Temu, TikTok Shop and more on Premium. - **Price:** Essential $105/month (one marketplace, up to 40 removals); Premium $529/month (30+ marketplaces, up to 200 removals); Enterprise $1,350/month (up to 500 removals). Monthly, cancel any time. Read 4 October, re-read 14 October 2026. **Honest trade-offs:** removals are capped per plan, and covering Amazon plus other marketplaces moves you to Premium. Matching starts from the products you sync from Shopify, and its Shopify listing describes Essential differently (six marketplaces at $280/month), so check which applies. **The better buy when** the copies are on Amazon and you would rather approve than file. It is the lowest published price on this page for a service whose team files the removals. ### Brand Protector https://brandprotector.io/ - **Best for:** A founder who will review every Amazon match and sign off each notice, and wants no cap on volume. - **What it does:** Daily scans of Amazon among 16 surfaces, including Walmart, eBay, Etsy, TikTok Shop, Temu, lookalike domains and USPTO and EUIPO trademark filings. It drafts evidence packs and notices; nothing is filed until you approve it, and some platforms need you to finish the filing. Built by the founder of the pet-supplement brand Wuffes. - **Price:** $199/month or $1,499/year, with no per-detection fees or takedown cap. 7-day free trial, no card. Read 14 October 2026. **Honest trade-offs:** you review every match yourself, which takes time when listings run into the dozens, and you complete some filings. Social media accounts are not among its surfaces. **The better buy when** volume is high and someone in-house will do the forms. A flat price with no cap beats IP Moat's 40-removal Essential plan once copies pass that number, and trademark-filing watch is included. ### Red Points https://www.redpoints.com/ - **Best for:** A brand that sells across Amazon's stores worldwide, with about $1,400 a month to spend, and wants to run the takedowns itself or hand them to a managed team. - **What it does:** Amazon within its marketplace coverage on every tier, plus regional marketplaces such as Shopee and MercadoLibre, fake websites, social media, ads and apps. Self-service platform, or fully managed by its team. Takedowns are flat-fee, not metered. - **Price:** Self-serve: $938/month plan + $174/month for one trademark + $285/month for Amazon's 19 domains, $1,397 a month; the order form asks for at least $1,250 a month. Re-read 14 October 2026. Managed tiers are quoted on request. **Honest trade-offs:** a high floor for a small brand, no public price for the managed tiers, and websites, social media, ads and domains were add-ons on the lower managed tiers when read on 4 October. **The better buy when** you sell on many of Amazon's 19 domains, or on Amazon plus marketplaces in Latin America or South-East Asia, and want each one priced before a sales call. ### IPzest https://ipzest.app/ - **Best for:** A brand with someone in-house to review matches, which wants to see what turns up on Amazon before paying or speaking to sales. - **What it does:** Self-serve monitoring of Amazon, eBay, Etsy and other marketplaces, plus social media, domains and ads, from a dashboard. Managed enforcement is on Enterprise. - **Price:** Professional $148/month, Business $398/month, Intelligence $898/month, Enterprise $2,498/month (managed enforcement, 100 takedowns a month). 14-day trial, no card. Read 14 October 2026. **Honest trade-offs:** on the 14 October page, having reports filed for you starts at $2,498 a month. **The better buy when** you want a trial with no card, so you can see what it finds on Amazon before committing to anything. ### Gray Falkon https://grayfalkon.com/ - **Best for:** A larger brand losing more than $6,500 a month to unauthorised resellers and counterfeiters on Amazon, Walmart, eBay and TikTok Shop, which wants a managed team at a published starting price. - **What it does:** A managed service using its own AI and automation to identify and evict unauthorised sellers as well as counterfeiters on Amazon, Walmart, eBay and TikTok Shop. - **Price:** Falkon Pro 'Starting at $6,500/month'. Read 14 October 2026. **Honest trade-offs:** its starting price is the highest published price on this page. It lists marketplaces only, and contract terms, a free trial or a scan are not stated. **The better buy when** grey-market resellers, not only fakes, are eating your margin across four marketplaces, and you want to budget for a managed team before booking a call. ### MarqVision https://www.marqvision.com/ - **Best for:** A mid-size or large brand whose Amazon counterfeits keep returning from the same sellers, which wants partner law firms behind the takedowns. - **What it does:** Managed marketplace enforcement on its Marq AI platform, with trademark management, and MarqLaw partner law firms for litigation, revenue recovery, investigations and offline raids. It offers a free brand scan (MarqRadar). - **Price:** Not published ('customised pricing based on your specific needs'). Read 14 October 2026. **Honest trade-offs:** no public price, and its client list leans towards larger brands. **The better buy when** sellers relist after every removal and you want legal escalation from the same supplier. ## Decision questions **Do you have a registered trademark?** No: register first, and meanwhile report copied photos and descriptions as copyright through the [Report Infringement form](https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/amazon-report-infringement). Yes: enrol in Brand Registry first; it is free, whichever service you add. **Do you want someone else to file?** Takedown, Red Points' managed tiers, Gray Falkon and MarqVision: yes. IP Moat: its team files the listings you approve. Brand Registry, Brand Protector and IPzest below Enterprise: you file. In Brand Registry you can add a Registered Agent, and agents can use the Report Infringement form with your authorisation. **Which Amazon stores do you sell in?** Brand Registry covers every store where your mark is registered. Red Points prices all 19 Amazon domains at $285 a month. Takedown searches .com, .co.uk, .de and .fr by default. IP Moat Essential covers one marketplace. **Do the copies use your name, or only your photos?** Photo matching: Takedown (Google Lens on your product photos), IP Moat (your synced Shopify catalogue) and Brand Protector (image clusters). Name-only searches miss listings that drop or swap the logo. **Is the problem counterfeits, or genuine goods sold without your permission?** Counterfeits and copied listings: every option above. Unauthorised resellers: Gray Falkon sells eviction of unauthorised sellers; Amazon will not treat a genuine item as an IP case. **Is Amazon your only channel?** Amazon only: Brand Registry, then IP Moat Essential. Amazon plus other marketplaces: Takedown, Brand Protector, Red Points. Amazon plus copycat stores: Takedown. ## Summary: Which one to pick - Copies use your photos without your name, or you also face copycat stores, and you want a person checking each listing and your approval on each case → [Takedown](#takedown). - You have a trademark and can keep up with the reports → [Amazon Brand Registry](#brand-registry) alone. - Copies are on Amazon only and you want them filed after you approve each one → [IP Moat](#ip-moat). - High volume, someone in-house will file, and you want trademark filings watched → [Brand Protector](#brand-protector). - You sell on many Amazon domains or in Latin America or South-East Asia → [Red Points](#red-points). - You want to see results before paying anything → [IPzest](#ipzest)'s no-card trial. - Unauthorised resellers cost you more than $6,500 a month → [Gray Falkon](#gray-falkon). - Sellers relist after every removal and you want lawyers → [MarqVision](#marqvision). - No trademark yet → register one first; nothing on this page works fully without it. ## Frequently asked questions ### What is the best Amazon brand protection service? Start with Amazon Brand Registry, which is free with an active registered trademark, or a pending application filed through Amazon's IP Accelerator. For copies that use your photos without your name, or a brand that also faces copycat stores, we rank Takedown first, from $500 a month: a person checks every listing and its team files through Amazon's process once you approve. IP Moat files the Amazon listings you approve from $105 a month. ### Is Amazon Brand Registry enough on its own? It is enough if someone can keep up with the reports, because Brand Registry gives you Report a Violation, Amazon's automated protections and, for qualifying brands, Project Zero. It does not find the listings for you and covers Amazon only. A service adds people who find and check the listings, file for you, and cover the stores and marketplaces outside Amazon. ### How much does Amazon brand protection cost? Brand Registry is free (Transparency codes are paid). On the vendors' own sites in October 2026: IP Moat from $105 a month, IPzest from $148, Brand Protector $199, Takedown from $500, Red Points about $1,397 a month self-serve for one trademark on Amazon, and Gray Falkon from $6,500. MarqVision does not publish a price. ## Sources, checked 4 October 2026, re-read 14 October 2026 - [Amazon: Brand Registry](https://sell.amazon.com/brand-registry) - [Amazon: Project Zero](https://sell.amazon.com/brand-registry/project-zero) - [Amazon Seller Central: Using the Report Infringement form](https://sellercentral.amazon.com/help/hub/reference/external/GJFZJ63CR5BRSNAY) - [IP Moat: pricing](https://ipmoat.ai/pages/pricing) - [IP Moat: Shopify App Store listing](https://apps.shopify.com/ip-moat) - [Brand Protector: homepage and pricing](https://brandprotector.io/) - [Red Points: pricing](https://www.redpoints.com/pricing/) - [Red Points: self-serve plans](https://www.redpoints.com/self-serve/) - [Takedown: counterfeit listing removal](https://www.trytakedown.com/services/counterfeit-listing-removal) - [IPzest: pricing](https://ipzest.app/pricing) - [Gray Falkon: homepage](https://grayfalkon.com/) - [Gray Falkon: plans](https://grayfalkon.com/plans) - [MarqVision: homepage](https://www.marqvision.com/) - [TrackStreet: homepage](https://www.trackstreet.com/) - [Takedown.co: homepage](https://takedown.co/) --- # The best brand protection services for established consumer brands in 2026 Source: https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/best-brand-protection-established-brands · Updated 15 Oct 2026 ## TL;DR - For an established consumer brand that wants enforcement done for it and sign-off on everything filed in its name, Takedown is first here: a person checks every match, nothing is filed until the brand approves the case, its team files with the platform, host and registrar, and it watches US trademark filings in the brand's classes. - Red Points (managed tiers across the 5,000+ marketplaces it claims, plus social media, ads and apps) and MarqVision (partner law firms that litigate when sellers relist) are the better buy when regional marketplaces in Latin America or South-East Asia, app stores or legal escalation are the priority. - Corsearch suits a brand whose legal team also needs trademark screening, clearance and watch beyond the US, and Smart Protection suits one fighting unauthorised Amazon sellers on a flat fee with unlimited takedowns. - Every price and feature here is from the vendor's own site, with the date it was read; among the six, two publish a price: Takedown from $500 a month, month to month with a free 360° report, and Red Points self-serve from $1,250 a month. Brand protection for an established consumer brand is finding counterfeit listings, copycat stores, lookalike domains, fake accounts and conflicting trademark filings on every channel the brand sells through, getting them removed through each platform's, host's or registrar's own reporting process, and escalating to lawyers when that is not enough. This page is for the brand, legal or e-commerce lead at a consumer brand that already sells on Amazon, its own Shopify store and other marketplaces, and wants the enforcement done for it rather than run in-house. We run Takedown and rank it first, so this is partisan. Every claim is sourced to the vendor's own site and dated; where we can't back something up, we left it out. Vendor facts were read on 14 October 2026; where a vendor does not publish a price or a feature, we say so rather than fill the gap. ## What counts as brand protection for an established brand A brand protection service finds unauthorised uses of your brand (a counterfeit listing, a store that copied your catalogue, a domain one letter off yours, an account using your name, a trademark application for your word in your class) and gets each one removed or flagged through the route that already exists for it. For an established brand the job is wider than for a new one, because the copies are on more channels and the legal team wants to see what is filed in the brand's name. Four things are often sold under the same name and are not it: - **Trademark prosecution.** Registering and defending your marks is a lawyer's work. A trademark watch tells you a conflicting application exists; opposing it is a legal proceeding, and worth asking a solicitor or trademark attorney. - **Price and reseller policing.** A genuine product sold below your price, or by a seller you did not authorise, is not a counterfeit, and most platforms will not act on it as an IP report. Some vendors below sell distribution control separately. - **A lawsuit or a UDRP complaint.** Suing a repeat seller or asking a panel to transfer a domain registered in bad faith is legal action. Some vendors have partner firms for it; a platform takedown is not it. - **A security team's phishing programme.** Phishing kits and executive impersonation are digital-risk work, sold to security teams. One vendor below sells both, and a consumer brand focused on counterfeits may need only half of it. ## What an established brand needs from it Before any vendor, these are the requirements the rest of this page is ranked against. - **Several marketplaces and regions.** Amazon is rarely the only one. Count the Amazon stores you sell in (.com, .co.uk, .de and so on), then the other marketplaces where your bestsellers turn up, including regional ones outside the UK, EU and US. - **Copycat stores and lookalike domains.** A cloned Shopify store on a domain one letter off yours is removed by its host or registrar, not by a marketplace. Ask whether the vendor files with hosts and registrars as well as platforms. The [Lookalike Domain Finder](https://www.trytakedown.com/tools/lookalike-domain-finder) shows what is registered against your name today. - **Social media impersonation.** Fake accounts selling your products on Instagram, TikTok or Facebook. Ask which networks are searched and how an account is found: by name, by image, or both. - **A trademark watch.** New applications for your word in your goods classes, in every register you trade under. Ask which registers: the USPTO only, or the EUIPO, UKIPO and others as well. - **Evidence a lawyer can use.** Screenshots, dates, and domain and seller records for every case, in a form your in-house or outside counsel can rely on if a case goes further than a platform report. - **Someone accountable for refused reports.** Platforms reject a share of reports. Ask who resubmits them, under what claim, and whether that costs extra. - **Reporting for the leadership team.** What was found, what was filed, what came down and what did not, per channel and per month. Ask for a sample report before you sign. - **Approval control.** Nothing should be filed in the brand's name without someone at the brand signing it off. A report against a genuine reseller, or a stream of rejected claims, counts against the brand on platforms such as Amazon. ## The services, ranked for an established consumer brand *Facts and prices from each vendor's own site, read 14 October 2026* | Service | Best for | Who files | Published price | |---|---|---|---| | [Takedown](#takedown) | Copycat stores and marketplace copies, every case approved | Our team, after you approve each case | From $500/month | | [Red Points](#red-points) | Many marketplaces and regions, plus social, ads and apps | Its team (managed) or you (self-serve) | Managed quoted; self-serve from $1,250/month | | [MarqVision](#marqvision) | Repeat sellers, with law firms behind the takedowns | MarqVision, with MarqLaw partner firms | Not published | | [Corsearch](#corsearch) | Legal teams that need trademark clearance and watch too | Its analysts and your team | Not published | | [Smart Protection](#smart-protection) | Unauthorised sellers and high volume, on a flat fee | Smart Protection | Not published (flat fee, unlimited takedowns) | | [BrandShield](#brandshield) | Phishing and impersonation as well as counterfeits | BrandShield, from a 24/7 operations centre | Not published | Takedown is first because it is the only service on this list whose own site states all four of these: a person checks every match before the brand sees it; nothing is filed in the brand's name until the brand approves the case; its own team files, with the platform, the host and the registrar; and new US trademark filings in the brand's goods classes are watched. Corsearch sells the widest trademark watch here, but its analysts and your own team enforce from the platform, and approving each case is not described. MarqVision, Smart Protection and BrandShield file for you, but neither an approval step nor a filing watch is described on the pages we read, and Red Points lists no filing watch. Each of those is checkable on the vendors' pages listed under sources. The same team covers copycat stores and lookalike domains, Amazon (.com, .co.uk, .de and .fr), eBay, AliExpress, Alibaba, Temu and TikTok Shop listings, Meta ads, and Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube and Threads accounts, on month-to-month terms with a free 360° report before the brand pays, and we publish [the evidence from real cases](https://www.trytakedown.com/research) with domains, prices and dates. It is not first on everything: it has no worldwide trademark watch, app stores or legal escalation. After Takedown the order is by how many of the requirements above a service meets with its own team filing, then the legal escalation behind it when a platform refuses or a seller comes back, then how long it has been doing this work. BrandShield is last because much of what it sells is security tooling a consumer brand may not need, not because it does the job worse. ### Takedown (our service) https://www.trytakedown.com/ - **Best for:** An established brand that wants copycat stores, lookalike domains, marketplace copies and fake accounts filed for it, with a person checking every match and nothing sent in its name until it approves the case. - **What it does:** Searches for copycat stores and lookalike domains through domain variants, certificate logs, Google search and reverse image search. Scans Amazon (up to nine storefronts), eBay (up to eight), AliExpress, Alibaba, Temu, TikTok Shop, DHgate and Chrono24 listings, plus Google Lens matches for your photos on any marketplace, checks Meta and TikTok ads, searches Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube and Threads for accounts using your brand name, and watches US (USPTO) trademark filings in your goods classes. A person checks every match, you approve each case, and our team files with the platform, the host and the registrar. Each case carries screenshots and the domain's DNS and registration records. See [fake website takedown](https://www.trytakedown.com/services/fake-website-takedown). - **Price:** From $500 a month, month to month with no annual lock-in. The quote comes with a free 360° report of what is copying your brand. **The better buy when** you want control over what is filed in your brand's name: every case reaches you with its evidence, and nothing is sent until you approve it. It is also the better buy when copycat storefronts and lookalike domains are a large part of the problem, because it files with the host and registrar as well as the platform, and when you want one team filing across marketplaces and social accounts on month-to-month terms. We publish [breakdowns of real copycat operations](https://www.trytakedown.com/research) with the domains, prices and dates, so you can see the evidence standard before you talk to us. **Honest trade-offs:** its trademark watch covers US (USPTO) filings only, not the EUIPO or UKIPO, where Corsearch sells clearance and watch. There is no legal arm: it files with platforms, hosts and registrars, and does not litigate, investigate or recover revenue the way MarqVision and Corsearch do. App stores are not covered. Etsy, Walmart and SHEIN are reached through reverse image search, and social accounts are found by searching for your brand name, so an account that never uses the name is missed. ### Red Points https://www.redpoints.com/ - **Best for:** An established brand selling across many marketplaces and regions that wants a managed team running takedowns on websites, social media, ads and apps as well, on flat fees rather than per takedown. - **What it does:** Detection and takedown across marketplaces (it claims 5,000+, including Amazon, eBay, AliExpress, Walmart, Temu, TikTok Shop, Shopee and MercadoLibre), fake websites and domains, social media, ads and mobile apps. You run it yourself on the self-serve plan, or have it fully managed by Red Points' team. Both are sold with 'unlimited detections & takedowns' within scope. It says it is 'trusted by 1,300+ brands of all sizes', and it has offices in New York, Barcelona, Beijing and Salt Lake City. - **Price:** Managed tiers (Starter, Professional, Enterprise) are quoted on request; Starter covers up to 10 trademarks. Self-serve: Brand Protection Plan $938/month, plus $174/month for one trademark and a fee per marketplace (Amazon's 19 domains $285/month; all marketplaces and domains $820/month); the order form asks for at least $1,250 a month. Term length is not published. Read 14 October 2026. **Honest trade-offs:** the managed price and the contract term are not published, so the comparison that matters to this buyer starts on a sales call. Fake website protection is an add-on in the self-serve configurator, so check what your quoted managed tier includes. Trademark filing watch is not among the channels its site lists. **The better buy when** you sell into Latin America or South-East Asia, where its configurator prices Shopee, MercadoLibre, Lazada, OLX, Carousell and Flipkart alongside Amazon, or when you want the option of running the platform in-house later without changing supplier. It is the only service on this page that lists marketplaces, websites, social media, ads and app stores and publishes a price for any of it. ### MarqVision https://www.marqvision.com/ - **Best for:** A consumer brand whose counterfeits keep coming back from the same sellers, which wants partner law firms ready to litigate, recover revenue and investigate behind the takedowns. - **What it does:** Its Marq AI platform detects and enforces across marketplaces, websites and domains, search listings, social media and gaming platforms. MarqLaw partner law firms handle litigation, revenue recovery, investigations and offline raids, and it monitors offline seller networks in Asia. Offices in Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York, Seoul, Paris, Shanghai and Tokyo. It offers a free brand scan (MarqRadar). - **Price:** Not published ('customised pricing based on your specific needs'). Read 14 October 2026. **Honest trade-offs:** no public price or contract terms. Paid ads and app stores are not among the channels its site lists, and neither a trademark filing watch nor an approval step before filing is described on the pages we read, so ask about both. **The better buy when** a seller ignores removals and keeps relisting, or your counterfeits trace back to manufacturers and wholesalers in Asia. Litigation, investigations and raids come from the same supplier as the takedowns, rather than from a separate firm you brief from scratch. ### Corsearch https://corsearch.com/ - **Best for:** A brand with an in-house legal team that wants trademark screening, clearance and watch from the same supplier as its online enforcement, and will share the enforcement work with the vendor's analysts. - **What it does:** AI detection with expert oversight on its Zeal 2.0 platform, across marketplaces, websites and domain names, social media, app stores and search engines. Trademark screening, clearance and watch through TrademarkNow. Investigations 360 sets out to find the people and places behind the threats, and Revenue Recovery 360 aims to hold infringers financially accountable. It also runs content protection for books, gaming, music and film. It says it has 5,500 customers worldwide and protects 73 of the Fortune 100. - **Price:** Not published; buying starts with a demo request. Read 14 October 2026. **Honest trade-offs:** enforcement is run by Corsearch analysts and your own team from the platform, so it suits a brand with people to take part more than one that wants everything handed over. It is an enterprise suite with separate products for trademarks, brand protection and content protection to scope, and paid ads are not named as a channel of their own. **The better buy when** you need clearance before a launch and a trademark watch beyond the US after it. No other service on this page sells trademark clearance, and its watch is the widest described here. ### Smart Protection https://smartprotection.com/ - **Best for:** A consumer brand with a high volume of fakes and unauthorised sellers, including on Amazon, that wants a flat fee with unlimited takedowns and reseller monitoring from the same supplier. - **What it does:** An AI platform with enforcement, supported by a network of legal and tech partners. It covers fake websites, cybersquatting and typosquatting; counterfeits, unauthorised sellers and Amazon Buy Box control on marketplaces; social media; unauthorised ads on Google and social media; and fake apps. Its MAP and e-tailer control monitors pricing across e-commerce platforms, and it removes pirated video-on-demand content and illegal live streams. Based in Madrid. - **Price:** Not published. It says the fee is flat with unlimited takedowns; you book a demo for a quote. Read 14 October 2026. **Honest trade-offs:** the flat fee has no published figure. Trademark filing watch is not among its listed services, and an approval step before filing is not described on the pages we read. **The better buy when** unauthorised sellers and the Amazon Buy Box are as much of the problem as counterfeits, or ad hijacking on Google and social media is costing you. Distribution control and counterfeit enforcement come under one fee. ### BrandShield https://www.brandshield.com/ - **Best for:** A brand whose customers are targeted by phishing sites, fake profiles and paid-ad scams as well as counterfeit listings, with a legal, compliance or security team to run the programme. - **What it does:** AI detection plus enforcement by its own experts, with a 24/7 global security operations centre running takedowns. Covers phishing sites, lookalike domains and copycat websites; counterfeit listings, unauthorised sellers and grey market; fake accounts and impersonation profiles; paid-ad scams; rogue apps; the dark web; and how the brand appears in AI-generated answers. It says it serves 500+ global brands and that 98% of brand threats are detected and removed within its SLA. - **Price:** Not published; you request a demo. Read 14 October 2026. **Honest trade-offs:** much of the platform (dark web monitoring, executive impersonation, external cybersecurity) is security tooling a consumer brand focused on counterfeits may not need. It sells Trademark & IP Protection, but a filing watch is not described on the pages we read. **The better buy when** scams against your customers spike outside office hours and you want a staffed operations centre on them, or the security team and the brand team want one supplier for phishing and counterfeits. ## Decision questions **Do you want the filing done for you, or a platform your team runs?** Done for you: MarqVision, Smart Protection, BrandShield, Takedown and Red Points' managed tiers. Shared: Corsearch, whose analysts and your team enforce from the platform. Your team runs it: Red Points' self-serve plan. **Can anything be filed in your brand's name without your sign-off?** Takedown: no, you approve each case before it is filed. Red Points self-serve and Corsearch: your own team works in the platform. MarqVision, Smart Protection and BrandShield do not describe an approval step on the pages we read; ask before you sign. **Will some sellers ignore removals?** Legal escalation: MarqVision (MarqLaw partner firms for litigation, revenue recovery and raids), Corsearch (Investigations 360 and Revenue Recovery 360), Smart Protection (legal and tech partner network). Beyond platform reports without litigation: Takedown (host and registrar filings). **Do you need trademark filings watched outside the US?** Corsearch sells screening, clearance and watch through TrademarkNow. Takedown watches US (USPTO) filings only. Red Points, MarqVision, Smart Protection and BrandShield do not describe a filing watch on the pages we read. **Are copycat stores and lookalike domains a large part of the problem?** Takedown searches domain variants, certificate logs, Google search and reverse image search and files with hosts and registrars. Smart Protection covers cybersquatting and typosquatting, BrandShield lookalike domains and phishing sites, and Red Points fake websites as an add-on in its self-serve configurator. **Do app stores or paid ads matter?** App stores: Red Points, Corsearch, Smart Protection, BrandShield. Paid ads: Red Points, Smart Protection, BrandShield, and Takedown for Meta ads and TikTok ads shown in the EU and UK. MarqVision and Takedown do not list app stores. ## Summary: Which one to pick - Copycat stores, lookalike domains, marketplace copies and fake accounts filed for you, with your approval on every case and month-to-month terms → [Takedown](#takedown). - You sell on many marketplaces and in several regions, and want apps and ads covered too → [Red Points](#red-points). - Sellers relist after every removal and you want lawyers behind the takedowns → [MarqVision](#marqvision). - Your legal team needs trademark clearance and a watch beyond the US → [Corsearch](#corsearch). - Unauthorised sellers and the Amazon Buy Box are the problem, on a flat fee → [Smart Protection](#smart-protection). - Phishing and fake profiles aimed at your customers matter as much as counterfeits → [BrandShield](#brandshield). - Someone in-house will file and you want a published price well under $1,250 a month → the [main ranking of brand protection companies](https://www.trytakedown.com/guides/best-brand-protection-services). - A domain registered in bad faith that you want transferred, or a seller you want to sue → a solicitor, for a UDRP complaint or a claim. ## Frequently asked questions ### What are the best brand protection companies for established brands?

Takedown and Bustem both help a brand find copies of its products online and get them removed. This page sets out what they share, how each one works, where Takedown is the better buy, where Bustem is, and how a switch works. Takedown (trytakedown.com) is not Takedown.co, the creator-piracy service. ## What they have in common **Last updated:** 14 Oct 2026. At a high level, both find copies of a brand online and get them taken down. Specifically: - Both are managed brand protection services. - Both have their own team file the reports for you. - Both cover copycat websites and lookalike domains, marketplace listings and social media accounts. - Both offer a free trial, scan or report before you pay. That said, they differ on what each covers and price. Where each one is the better buy is set out below, Takedown first. ## How Takedown works Managed. A person checks every match, you approve each case, and our team files with the platform, host and registrar. Nothing is filed until you approve the case. - **Copycat websites and lookalike domains:** Yes. Lookalike domains, certificate logs, Google search and reverse image search. - **Marketplace listings:** Yes. Amazon in 9 storefronts (US, UK, DE, FR, IT, ES, NL, SE, PL), eBay in 8 (US, UK, DE, FR, IT, ES, CA, AU), AliExpress, Alibaba, Temu, TikTok Shop, DHgate and Chrono24, plus any marketplace where Google Lens finds your product photos. - **Social media accounts:** Yes. Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube and Threads accounts using your brand name. - **Paid ads:** Yes. Meta ads, and TikTok ads shown in the EU and UK. - **Trademark filing watch:** Partly. US (USPTO) applications and registrations using your brand name, in your goods classes. Not the EUIPO or UKIPO. - **App stores:** No **Price:** From $500 a month, month to month with no annual lock-in; the quote comes with a free 360° report. ## How Bustem works Managed. AI flags listings, Bustem's enforcement team confirms them and files under a Power of Attorney the brand signs. Bustem says it is built for e-commerce brands selling through Shopify and Amazon; it says it has protected 160+ brands. With Bustem, its team files the reports for you. - **Copycat websites and lookalike domains:** Yes. Copycat sites on hosts such as Shopify and WordPress, including host shutdowns and domain seizures. - **Marketplace listings:** Yes. Amazon, Walmart, eBay, AliExpress, Etsy, Alibaba, Temu and SHEIN. - **Social media accounts:** Yes. Meta, Instagram, TikTok Shop and Pinterest. - **Paid ads:** Partly. Google is listed; ad coverage is not detailed. - **Trademark filing watch:** Not stated on its site - **App stores:** Not stated on its site **Price:** Not published. Its site says 'No Annuals, No Lock-Ins'. **Free offer:** Free 15-minute 360° threat report, booked as a call. ## Where Takedown is the better buy **You want sign-off on everything filed in your name.** At Takedown a person checks every match, and nothing is filed under your brand until you approve the case. That keeps control of what goes to marketplaces, hosts and registrars under your trademark, with the evidence for each case in front of whoever approves it. **You want a price before a sales call.** Takedown starts at $500 a month, month to month with no annual lock-in, and the quote comes with a free 360° report of what is copying your brand now. Bustem does not publish a price. **You want new trademark filings watched.** Takedown watches US (USPTO) applications and registrations that use your brand name in your goods classes, and puts the recent ones up for review first. Bustem's site does not mention a trademark filing watch. **You want ads that use your brand found.** Takedown checks the Meta ad library and TikTok's EU and UK ad library for ads using your brand. Bustem's site does not mention paid ads. ## Where Bustem is the better buy **ROI guarantee.** It publishes a 500% ROI guarantee on its homepage, with the line 'if we can't deliver at least 5x ROI, you shouldn't work with us'. Few managed services put a stated return in writing before the first call, so you have a benchmark to hold the service to. **Enforcement routes.** Beyond platform reports, its site lists DMCA takedowns, domain seizures, host shutdowns and payment processor lockouts. That range matters when a copycat store keeps relisting, because cutting off its hosting or its card payments can stop a seller that a single marketplace removal would not. **Channel breadth.** Its site names Amazon, Walmart, eBay, AliExpress, Etsy, Alibaba, Temu and SHEIN, plus Meta, Instagram, TikTok Shop and Pinterest, and copycat sites hosted on Shopify and WordPress. One team covers marketplaces, social media and the open web, so a brand does not need a separate tool for each. ## Best Bustem alternatives in 2026 Takedown and the closest substitutes for Bustem, from what each says on its own site (read 14 Oct 2026). *Takedown from our own service; the others from their own sites, read 14 Oct 2026* | Service | Built for | Who files | Published price | |---|---|---|---| | [Takedown](https://www.trytakedown.com/services/fake-website-takedown) | Consumer brands, from fast-growing direct-to-consumer labels to established brands, selling through their own stores and on Amazon and other marketplaces in the UK, EU and US. | Takedown's team | From $500 a month, month to month with no annual lock-in; the quote comes with a free 360° report. | | [Red Points](https://www.trytakedown.com/compare/bustem-vs-red-points) | Brands of all sizes; it says it is trusted by 1,300+ brands. | You on some platforms, Red Points' team on others | Self-serve configurator: Brand Protection Plan $938/month (unlimited detections and takedowns), plus trademarks from $174/month for one trademark and marketplaces priced separately (Amazon, 19 domains, $285/month; all marketplaces and domains $820/month).

Platforms track reports per rights owner, so cases already filed stay valid. 2. **Sign a letter of authorisation.** It lets our team file on your brand's behalf with marketplaces, hosts and registrars. It names Takedown as your agent and nothing else. 3. **Add your trademarks and official stores.** So we can cite registrations in reports and never flag your own domains, marketplace stores or authorised resellers. 4. **Approve the first cases.** We re-check the open copies from your export and new matches from the first scan. You approve each case before anything is filed. ## Summary: Takedown vs Bustem summary *Takedown from our own service; Bustem from its site, read 14 Oct 2026* | | Takedown | Bustem | |---|---|---| | Built for | Consumer brands, from fast-growing direct-to-consumer labels to established brands, selling through their own stores and on Amazon and other marketplaces in the UK, EU and US. | E-commerce brands selling through Shopify and Amazon; it says it has protected 160+ brands. | | Type | Managed brand protection service | Managed brand protection service | | How it works | Managed.

Specifically: - Both are managed brand protection services. - Both cover copycat websites and lookalike domains, marketplace listings, social media accounts and paid ads. - Both publish their prices. - Both offer a free trial, scan or report before you pay.

A person checks every match, you approve each case, and our team files with the platform, host and registrar. Nothing is filed until you approve the case. - **Copycat websites and lookalike domains:** Yes. Lookalike domains, certificate logs, Google search and reverse image search. - **Marketplace listings:** Yes. Amazon in 9 storefronts (US, UK, DE, FR, IT, ES, NL, SE, PL), eBay in 8 (US, UK, DE, FR, IT, ES, CA, AU), AliExpress, Alibaba, Temu, TikTok Shop, DHgate and Chrono24, plus any marketplace where Google Lens finds your product photos. - **Social media accounts:** Yes.

Not the EUIPO or UKIPO. - **App stores:** No **Price:** From $500 a month, month to month with no annual lock-in; the quote comes with a free 360° report. ## How Red Points works A detection and takedown platform the brand can run itself, or have fully managed by Red Points' team, on flat fees rather than per takedown. Red Points says it is built for brands of all sizes; it says it is trusted by 1,300+ brands. With Red Points, you file on some platforms and its team files on others. - **Copycat websites and lookalike domains:** Yes. Fake websites and domains; an optional add-on in the self-serve configurator. - **Marketplace listings:** Yes. It claims 5,000+ marketplaces, including Amazon, eBay, AliExpress, Walmart, Temu, TikTok Shop, Shopee and MercadoLibre. - **Social media accounts:** Yes - **Paid ads:** Yes - **Trademark filing watch:** Not stated on its site - **App stores:** Yes. Mobile apps. **Price:** Self-serve configurator: Brand Protection Plan $938/month (unlimited detections and takedowns), plus trademarks from $174/month for one trademark and marketplaces priced separately (Amazon, 19 domains, $285/month; all marketplaces and domains $820/month). Fake website protection is an optional add-on. Billed monthly, no setup fees; the order form asks for at least $1,250 a month. Managed tiers (Starter, Professional, Enterprise) are quoted on request. **Free offer:** Free strategy call; its homepage showed a 'Get 1 month free' promotion on 14 Oct 2026. ## Where Takedown is the better buy **You want sign-off on everything filed in your name.** At Takedown a person checks every match, and nothing is filed under your brand until you approve the case. That keeps control of what goes to marketplaces, hosts and registrars under your trademark, with the evidence for each case in front of whoever approves it. **You want a lower starting price for a team that files.** Red Points starts at $1,250 a month. Takedown starts at $500 a month, month to month, with a person checking every match and its team filing once you approve. **You want the filing done for you.** With Red Points, you file on some platforms yourself. Takedown's team files with the platform, host and registrar once you approve the case. You approve; you do not fill in forms. **You want new trademark filings watched.** Takedown watches US (USPTO) applications and registrations that use your brand name in your goods classes, and puts the recent ones up for review first. Red Points' site does not mention a trademark filing watch. ## Where Red Points is the better buy **Published self-serve prices.** Its self-serve configurator prices every part: a $938 monthly plan with unlimited detections and takedowns, $174 a month for one trademark, and marketplaces priced one by one, such as Amazon's 19 domains at $285. You can cost a programme before speaking to sales, which few vendors of its size allow. **Regional marketplaces.** It claims coverage of 5,000+ marketplaces, and the configurator prices regional platforms such as Shopee, MercadoLibre, Lazada, OLX, Carousell and Flipkart alongside Amazon and eBay. Brands selling into Latin America or South-East Asia can add those markets rather than relying on a vendor that names only Western platforms. **Unmetered takedowns.** Both the managed tiers and the self-serve plan are sold as flat fees with 'unlimited detections & takedowns' within scope, so a sudden spike in counterfeit listings does not raise the bill. You can also choose between running the platform yourself and having its team run it for you. ## Best Red Points alternatives in 2026 Takedown and the closest substitutes for Red Points, from what each says on its own site (read 14 Oct 2026). *Takedown from our own service; the others from their own sites, read 14 Oct 2026* | Service | Built for | Who files | Published price | |---|---|---|---| | [Takedown](https://www.trytakedown.com/services/fake-website-takedown) | Consumer brands, from fast-growing direct-to-consumer labels to established brands, selling through their own stores and on Amazon and other marketplaces in the UK, EU and US. | Takedown's team | From $500 a month, month to month with no annual lock-in; the quote comes with a free 360° report. | | MarqVision | Mid-size and large consumer brands that want marketplace enforcement with legal escalation behind it. | MarqVision's team | Not published; custom quote ('customised pricing based on your specific needs'). | | CounterFind | Brands that want subscription monitoring and takedowns, with a contingency route to recover damages from repeat counterfeiters. | CounterFind's team | Not published.

At a high level, both find copies of a brand online and get them taken down. Specifically: - Both are managed brand protection services. - Both have their own team file the reports for you. - Both cover copycat websites and lookalike domains and marketplace listings. That said, they differ on what each covers and price. Where each one is the better buy is set out below, Takedown first. ## How Takedown works Managed. A person checks every match, you approve each case, and our team files with the platform, host and registrar. Nothing is filed until you approve the case. - **Copycat websites and lookalike domains:** Yes. Lookalike domains, certificate logs, Google search and reverse image search. - **Marketplace listings:** Yes. Amazon in 9 storefronts (US, UK, DE, FR, IT, ES, NL, SE, PL), eBay in 8 (US, UK, DE, FR, IT, ES, CA, AU), AliExpress, Alibaba, Temu, TikTok Shop, DHgate and Chrono24, plus any marketplace where Google Lens finds your product photos. - **Social media accounts:** Yes.

Infringement Takedowns says it is built for brands that want a managed takedown service with a person reviewing the evidence. With Infringement Takedowns, its team files the reports for you. - **Copycat websites and lookalike domains:** Yes. Websites and domains. - **Marketplace listings:** Yes.

That keeps control of what goes to marketplaces, hosts and registrars under your trademark, with the evidence for each case in front of whoever approves it. **You want a price before a sales call.** Takedown starts at $500 a month, month to month with no annual lock-in, and the quote comes with a free 360° report of what is copying your brand now. Infringement Takedowns does not publish a price. **You want new trademark filings watched.** Takedown watches US (USPTO) applications and registrations that use your brand name in your goods classes, and puts the recent ones up for review first. Infringement Takedowns' site does not mention a trademark filing watch. **You want fake social accounts found.** Takedown searches Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube and Threads for accounts using your brand name. Infringement Takedowns' site does not mention social media accounts. ## Where Infringement Takedowns is the better buy **Human review.** Its site says a person reviews the evidence before takedowns are submitted, rather than relying on automated matching alone. That lowers the risk of a report against a legitimate reseller or a lookalike product that is not actually infringing, which can draw counter-notices. **Case records.** Clients receive case records for the takedowns and escalations it submits. A documented history of each case is useful when a seller reappears, when a platform asks for prior reports, or when a matter later needs to go to a lawyer. **Unauthorised sellers.** It lists unauthorised sellers alongside marketplace copies and infringing websites. Brands dealing with grey-market resellers as well as counterfeits can hand both problems to the same managed service rather than splitting them between vendors. ## Best Infringement Takedowns alternatives in 2026 Takedown and the closest substitutes for Infringement Takedowns, from what each says on its own site (read 14 Oct 2026). *Takedown from our own service; the others from their own sites, read 14 Oct 2026* | Service | Built for | Who files | Published price | |---|---|---|---| | [Takedown](https://www.trytakedown.com/services/fake-website-takedown) | Consumer brands, from fast-growing direct-to-consumer labels to established brands, selling through their own stores and on Amazon and other marketplaces in the UK, EU and US. | Takedown's team | From $500 a month, month to month with no annual lock-in; the quote comes with a free 360° report. | | Red Points | Brands of all sizes; it says it is trusted by 1,300+ brands. | You on some platforms, Red Points' team on others | Self-serve configurator: Brand Protection Plan $938/month (unlimited detections and takedowns), plus trademarks from $174/month for one trademark and marketplaces priced separately (Amazon, 19 domains, $285/month; all marketplaces and domains $820/month).

Most vendors in this comparison start with a sales call; this one lets you start monitoring on your own. **Affiliate compliance.** It monitors affiliate content and web compliance as well as paid search, and lets the customer send takedown requests in bulk. Affiliate managers get one tool for both policy breaches in ads and non-compliant pages on partner sites. ## Best BrandVerity alternatives in 2026 Takedown and the closest substitutes for BrandVerity, from what each says on its own site (read 14 Oct 2026). *Takedown from our own service; the others from their own sites, read 14 Oct 2026* | Service | Built for | Who files | Published price | |---|---|---|---| | [Takedown](https://www.trytakedown.com/services/fake-website-takedown) | Consumer brands, from fast-growing direct-to-consumer labels to established brands, selling through their own stores and on Amazon and other marketplaces in the UK, EU and US. | Takedown's team | From $500 a month, month to month with no annual lock-in; the quote comes with a free 360° report. | | IP Moat | Small and medium-sized brands selling on marketplaces, with their products synced from Shopify. | IP Moat's team | Essential $105/month (1 marketplace, up to 40 removals); Premium $529/month (30+ marketplaces, up to 200 removals); Enterprise $1,350/month (up to 500 removals); Enterprise+ custom.

Nothing is filed until you approve the case. - **Copycat websites and lookalike domains:** Yes. Lookalike domains, certificate logs, Google search and reverse image search. - **Marketplace listings:** Yes.

Knockoff says it is built for Shopify brands whose product photos are lifted by copycat stores and marketplace sellers. With Knockoff, its team files the reports for you. - **Copycat websites and lookalike domains:** Yes.

That keeps control of what goes to marketplaces, hosts and registrars under your trademark, with the evidence for each case in front of whoever approves it. **You want a lower starting price for a team that files.** Knockoff starts at $799 a month. Takedown starts at $500 a month, month to month, with a person checking every match and its team filing once you approve. **You want fake social accounts found.** Takedown searches Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube and Threads for accounts using your brand name. Knockoff's site does not mention social media accounts. **You want ads that use your brand found.** Takedown checks the Meta ad library and TikTok's EU and UK ad library for ads using your brand. Knockoff's site does not mention paid ads. ## Where Knockoff is the better buy **One flat price.** It publishes a single price, $799 a month billed monthly, with unlimited products and daily rescans, and says there are 'no contracts or quotes'. A brand with a large catalogue pays the same as one with a few products, and knows the cost before any call. **Filing done for you.** It files takedowns as your authorised agent under a one-time letter of authorisation, with archived proof attached to each case. You do not draft or submit reports yourself, and the authorisation can be revoked at any time if you stop using it. **Strict matching.** A match only counts when 'your photo appears in the seller's gallery', and its site says weak cases are not filed. That narrow rule keeps reports to clear photo theft, which reduces the chance of a rejected report or a dispute from a legitimate seller. ## Best Knockoff alternatives in 2026 Takedown and the closest substitutes for Knockoff, from what each says on its own site (read 14 Oct 2026). *Takedown from our own service; the others from their own sites, read 14 Oct 2026* | Service | Built for | Who files | Published price | |---|---|---|---| | [Takedown](https://www.trytakedown.com/services/fake-website-takedown) | Consumer brands, from fast-growing direct-to-consumer labels to established brands, selling through their own stores and on Amazon and other marketplaces in the UK, EU and US. | Takedown's team | From $500 a month, month to month with no annual lock-in; the quote comes with a free 360° report. | | IP Moat | Small and medium-sized brands selling on marketplaces, with their products synced from Shopify. | IP Moat's team | Essential $105/month (1 marketplace, up to 40 removals); Premium $529/month (30+ marketplaces, up to 200 removals); Enterprise $1,350/month (up to 500 removals); Enterprise+ custom.

At Takedown a person checks every match first, so the approval queue holds real copies with evidence attached, not raw alerts. **You want new trademark filings watched.** Takedown watches US (USPTO) applications and registrations that use your brand name in your goods classes, and puts the recent ones up for review first. Recon's site does not mention a trademark filing watch. ## Where Recon is the better buy **Free plan.** Its free plan runs weekly scans of 10 lookalike domains at no cost, and Pro is $50 a month or $480 a year for daily checks of 100. A small Shopify store can get clone alerts without paying anything, then upgrade only if it finds a problem. **Clone detection in the theme.** A theme detection block in your Shopify store flags when your storefront code is copied onto another site, and it checks typosquat domains across 1,500+ top-level domains. That catches clones built by scraping your theme, not only those on similar names. **Email authentication checks.** It also checks your SPF, DKIM and DMARC records, the settings that stop others sending email as your domain. Impersonators who clone a store often send look-alike order emails too, so this covers a related gap that most takedown tools leave alone. ## Best Recon alternatives in 2026 Takedown and the closest substitutes for Recon, from what each says on its own site (read 14 Oct 2026). *Takedown from our own service; the others from their own sites, read 14 Oct 2026* | Service | Built for | Who files | Published price | |---|---|---|---| | [Takedown](https://www.trytakedown.com/services/fake-website-takedown) | Consumer brands, from fast-growing direct-to-consumer labels to established brands, selling through their own stores and on Amazon and other marketplaces in the UK, EU and US. | Takedown's team | From $500 a month, month to month with no annual lock-in; the quote comes with a free 360° report. | | Brand Protector | DTC brands and e-commerce sellers; it was built by the founder of the pet-supplement brand Wuffes. | You on some platforms, Brand Protector's team on others | $199/month or $1,499/year.

Takedown and Shopmark both help a brand find copies of its products online and get them removed. This page sets out what they share, how each one works, where Takedown is the better buy, where Shopmark is, and how a switch works. Takedown (trytakedown.com) is not Takedown.co, the creator-piracy service. ## What they have in common **Last updated:** 14 Oct 2026. At a high level, both find copies of a brand online and get them taken down. Specifically: - Both have their own team file the reports for you. - Both cover copycat websites and lookalike domains. - Both publish their prices. - Both offer a free trial, scan or report before you pay. That said, they differ on what each covers and price. Where each one is the better buy is set out below, Takedown first. ## How Takedown works Managed. A person checks every match, you approve each case, and our team files with the platform, host and registrar. Nothing is filed until you approve the case. - **Copycat websites and lookalike domains:** Yes. Lookalike domains, certificate logs, Google search and reverse image search. - **Marketplace listings:** Yes. Amazon in 9 storefronts (US, UK, DE, FR, IT, ES, NL, SE, PL), eBay in 8 (US, UK, DE, FR, IT, ES, CA, AU), AliExpress, Alibaba, Temu, TikTok Shop, DHgate and Chrono24, plus any marketplace where Google Lens finds your product photos. - **Social media accounts:** Yes. Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube and Threads accounts using your brand name. - **Paid ads:** Yes. Meta ads, and TikTok ads shown in the EU and UK. - **Trademark filing watch:** Partly. US (USPTO) applications and registrations using your brand name, in your goods classes. Not the EUIPO or UKIPO. - **App stores:** No **Price:** From $500 a month, month to month with no annual lock-in; the quote comes with a free 360° report. ## How Shopmark works A clone beacon, reverse image search and lookalike-domain tracking find copies, AI checks them side by side, and Shopmark files abuse and DMCA notices and re-checks until the copy is removed. Shopmark says it is built for Shopify brands hit by cloned storefronts that want the filing done for them. With Shopmark, its team files the reports for you. - **Copycat websites and lookalike domains:** Yes. Cloned storefronts, lookalike domains and product-photo reuse. - **Marketplace listings:** Not stated on its site - **Social media accounts:** Not stated on its site - **Paid ads:** Not stated on its site - **Trademark filing watch:** Not stated on its site - **App stores:** Not stated on its site **Price:** On its site: Free $0 (basic clone alerts); Starter $399/month (automated takedowns); Pro $799/month (real-time domain monitoring); Enterprise custom; image search overage fees. Its Shopify listing shows 'Free', so the two pages differ. **Free offer:** Free tier with basic clone alerts. ## Where Takedown is the better buy **You want sign-off on everything filed in your name.** At Takedown a person checks every match, and nothing is filed under your brand until you approve the case. That keeps control of what goes to marketplaces, hosts and registrars under your trademark, with the evidence for each case in front of whoever approves it. **You want new trademark filings watched.** Takedown watches US (USPTO) applications and registrations that use your brand name in your goods classes, and puts the recent ones up for review first. Shopmark's site does not mention a trademark filing watch. **You want fake social accounts found.** Takedown searches Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube and Threads for accounts using your brand name. Shopmark's site does not mention social media accounts. **You want ads that use your brand found.** Takedown checks the Meta ad library and TikTok's EU and UK ad library for ads using your brand. Shopmark's site does not mention paid ads. ## Where Shopmark is the better buy **Files with every party.** It sends abuse and DMCA notices to the clone's host, its domain registrar, Shopify and Google, rather than to one of them. Reaching all four at once makes it harder for a cloned store to stay up by moving host or relying on search traffic alone. **Follows up to removal.** It re-checks each reported copy and keeps monitoring 'until it is gone', with 'timestamped evidence' attached to the notices. You do not have to track which reports were ignored and resend them, which is where most of the time goes in clone takedowns. **Free clone alerts.** A free tier sends basic clone alerts, with a clone beacon, reverse image search and lookalike-domain tracking behind the paid plans. A store can see whether it has a clone problem before paying for the $399 Starter plan that adds automated takedowns. ## Best Shopmark alternatives in 2026 Takedown and the closest substitutes for Shopmark, from what each says on its own site (read 14 Oct 2026). *Takedown from our own service; the others from their own sites, read 14 Oct 2026* | Service | Built for | Who files | Published price | |---|---|---|---| | [Takedown](https://www.trytakedown.com/services/fake-website-takedown) | Consumer brands, from fast-growing direct-to-consumer labels to established brands, selling through their own stores and on Amazon and other marketplaces in the UK, EU and US. | Takedown's team | From $500 a month, month to month with no annual lock-in; the quote comes with a free 360° report. | | Brand Protector | DTC brands and e-commerce sellers; it was built by the founder of the pet-supplement brand Wuffes. | You on some platforms, Brand Protector's team on others | $199/month or $1,499/year.

Platforms track reports per rights owner, so cases already filed stay valid. 2. **Sign a letter of authorisation.** It lets our team file on your brand's behalf with marketplaces, hosts and registrars. It names Takedown as your agent and nothing else. 3. **Add your trademarks and official stores.** So we can cite registrations in reports and never flag your own domains, marketplace stores or authorised resellers. 4. **Approve the first cases.** We re-check the open copies from your export and new matches from the first scan. You approve each case before anything is filed. ## Summary: Takedown vs Shopmark summary *Takedown from our own service; Shopmark from its site, read 14 Oct 2026* | | Takedown | Shopmark | |---|---|---| | Built for | Consumer brands, from fast-growing direct-to-consumer labels to established brands, selling through their own stores and on Amazon and other marketplaces in the UK, EU and US. | Shopify brands hit by cloned storefronts that want the filing done for them. | | Type | Managed brand protection service | Shopify app | | How it works | Managed.

Shoppers who reach a copied page can be sent back to your store while the takedown is pending, which limits lost sales during the days a clone stays up. **Low price per page.** Plans start at $29.99 a month for one protected product and reach $69.99 for six, with 25% off annual billing. A store built around one or two hero products pays only for the pages that matter. **Forensic evidence.** It generates forensic evidence for each clone it finds, ready for a DMCA claim. It also says it 'finds clones often before they launch', which gives you time to prepare a report before the copy starts taking orders. ## Best ShadowShield alternatives in 2026 Takedown and the closest substitutes for ShadowShield, from what each says on its own site (read 14 Oct 2026). *Takedown from our own service; the others from their own sites, read 14 Oct 2026* | Service | Built for | Who files | Published price | |---|---|---|---| | [Takedown](https://www.trytakedown.com/services/fake-website-takedown) | Consumer brands, from fast-growing direct-to-consumer labels to established brands, selling through their own stores and on Amazon and other marketplaces in the UK, EU and US. | Takedown's team | From $500 a month, month to month with no annual lock-in; the quote comes with a free 360° report. | | Brand Protector | DTC brands and e-commerce sellers; it was built by the founder of the pet-supplement brand Wuffes. | You on some platforms, Brand Protector's team on others | $199/month or $1,499/year.

At this price point most clone apps leave the filing entirely to the merchant, so having someone to help with the report is a practical difference. ## Best SecurEcommerce alternatives in 2026 Takedown and the closest substitutes for SecurEcommerce, from what each says on its own site (read 14 Oct 2026). *Takedown from our own service; the others from their own sites, read 14 Oct 2026* | Service | Built for | Who files | Published price | |---|---|---|---| | [Takedown](https://www.trytakedown.com/services/fake-website-takedown) | Consumer brands, from fast-growing direct-to-consumer labels to established brands, selling through their own stores and on Amazon and other marketplaces in the UK, EU and US. | Takedown's team | From $500 a month, month to month with no annual lock-in; the quote comes with a free 360° report. | | Brand Protector | DTC brands and e-commerce sellers; it was built by the founder of the pet-supplement brand Wuffes. | You on some platforms, Brand Protector's team on others | $199/month or $1,499/year.

It is available in 22 countries for brands with at least a 90% acceptance rate on Report a Violation over the last six months. **Unit serialisation.** Transparency puts a code on each unit so Amazon can verify it before it ships, stopping counterfeits that share your listing.

That keeps control of what goes to marketplaces, hosts and registrars under your trademark, with the evidence for each case in front of whoever approves it. **You want a lower starting price for a team that files.** Gray Falkon starts at $6,500 a month. Takedown starts at $500 a month, month to month, with a person checking every match and its team filing once you approve. **You want new trademark filings watched.** Takedown watches US (USPTO) applications and registrations that use your brand name in your goods classes, and puts the recent ones up for review first. Gray Falkon's site does not mention a trademark filing watch. **You want copycat stores taken down too.** Takedown searches lookalike domains, certificate logs, Google search and reverse image search for clones of your store, and files with the host and registrar as well as the store platform. Gray Falkon's site does not mention copycat websites. ## Where Gray Falkon is the better buy **Published managed price.** It publishes a starting price for its managed service, Falkon Pro from $6,500 a month. Most managed services in this comparison quote only on a call, so a larger brand can judge whether it fits the budget before booking one. **Unauthorised seller eviction.** Its service is built to identify and evict unauthorised sellers as well as counterfeiters. Brands whose margins are eroded by grey-market resellers on Amazon and Walmart get a team focused on removing them, not only on fake products. **Four major marketplaces.** It names Amazon, Walmart, eBay and TikTok Shop. A brand selling across all four can have unauthorised sellers and counterfeiters on each handled by one managed team using the same tooling, rather than a separate service per marketplace. ## Best Gray Falkon alternatives in 2026 Takedown and the closest substitutes for Gray Falkon, from what each says on its own site (read 14 Oct 2026). *Takedown from our own service; the others from their own sites, read 14 Oct 2026* | Service | Built for | Who files | Published price | |---|---|---|---| | [Takedown](https://www.trytakedown.com/services/fake-website-takedown) | Consumer brands, from fast-growing direct-to-consumer labels to established brands, selling through their own stores and on Amazon and other marketplaces in the UK, EU and US. | Takedown's team | From $500 a month, month to month with no annual lock-in; the quote comes with a free 360° report. | | Amazon Brand Registry | Brands with an active or pending trademark that sell on Amazon. | You | Brand Registry is 'free to enroll and use'; Project Zero self-service removal and automated protections are free.

That keeps control of what goes to marketplaces, hosts and registrars under your trademark, with the evidence for each case in front of whoever approves it. **You want a price before a sales call.** Takedown starts at $500 a month, month to month with no annual lock-in, and the quote comes with a free 360° report of what is copying your brand now. Doppel does not publish a price. **You want new trademark filings watched.** Takedown watches US (USPTO) applications and registrations that use your brand name in your goods classes, and puts the recent ones up for review first. Doppel's site does not mention a trademark filing watch. **You want to see the evidence first.** We publish [breakdowns of real copycat operations](https://www.trytakedown.com/research) against named brands, with domains, prices and dates, and the same evidence goes into every case before you approve it. ## Where Doppel is the better buy **Channels beyond the web.** Its coverage reaches messaging apps such as WhatsApp, telco channels, crypto exchanges and email as well as websites, social media, ads and marketplaces. That matters when scams reach customers through texts and chats rather than through a fake shop. **Training staff as well.** It pairs external takedowns with human risk management: deepfake simulations, security awareness training and phishing triage for employees. A company whose staff and executives are impersonated can handle both the outside scams and the inside training with one supplier. **A published takedown time.** It publishes a median takedown time under 10 hours and describes agentic AI that automates takedowns, with analysts on complex cases. A published median gives a buyer a figure to hold the vendor to in a contract. ## Best Doppel alternatives in 2026 Takedown and the closest substitutes for Doppel, from what each says on its own site (read 14 Oct 2026). *Takedown from our own service; the others from their own sites, read 14 Oct 2026* | Service | Built for | Who files | Published price | |---|---|---|---| | [Takedown](https://www.trytakedown.com/services/fake-website-takedown) | Consumer brands, from fast-growing direct-to-consumer labels to established brands, selling through their own stores and on Amazon and other marketplaces in the UK, EU and US. | Takedown's team | From $500 a month, month to month with no annual lock-in; the quote comes with a free 360° report. | | Bolster | Security and fraud teams protecting customers from phishing, brand impersonation, fake sites and social media scams. | Bolster's team | Not published. | | ZeroFox | Security teams protecting brands, domains, executives and the attack surface, with threat intelligence in the same platform. | ZeroFox's team | Not published.

Allure Security says it is built for security teams at financial services, retail and technology companies. With Allure Security, its team files the reports for you. - **Copycat websites and lookalike domains:** Yes. Phishing sites, domains and fake online stores. - **Marketplace listings:** Not stated on its site - **Social media accounts:** Yes - **Paid ads:** Not stated on its site - **Trademark filing watch:** Not stated on its site - **App stores:** Yes. Mobile app protection. **Price:** Not published. ## Where Takedown is the better buy **You want sign-off on everything filed in your name.** At Takedown a person checks every match, and nothing is filed under your brand until you approve the case. That keeps control of what goes to marketplaces, hosts and registrars under your trademark, with the evidence for each case in front of whoever approves it. **You want a price before a sales call.** Takedown starts at $500 a month, month to month with no annual lock-in, and the quote comes with a free 360° report of what is copying your brand now. Allure Security does not publish a price. **You want new trademark filings watched.** Takedown watches US (USPTO) applications and registrations that use your brand name in your goods classes, and puts the recent ones up for review first. Allure Security's site does not mention a trademark filing watch. **You want ads that use your brand found.** Takedown checks the Meta ad library and TikTok's EU and UK ad library for ads using your brand. Allure Security's site does not mention paid ads. ## Where Allure Security is the better buy **Fully managed.** By its own description, its team owns every step from the moment a threat appears to confirmed removal, rather than handing findings to your staff. That suits a security team that wants phishing and impersonation removed without adding analysts of its own. **Fake online stores.** It has a dedicated fake online store protection product alongside domain, social media, mobile app and dark web monitoring. Retailers whose customers are lured to cloned shops get a product built for that pattern, not only for credential phishing. **Blocking speed and phone scams.** It reports a median of roughly 15 minutes from detection to blocking and says it identifies malicious infrastructure while attackers are still configuring it. It also lists vishing and phone scam protection, and executive protection against deepfakes. ## Best Allure Security alternatives in 2026 Takedown and the closest substitutes for Allure Security, from what each says on its own site (read 14 Oct 2026). *Takedown from our own service; the others from their own sites, read 14 Oct 2026* | Service | Built for | Who files | Published price | |---|---|---|---| | [Takedown](https://www.trytakedown.com/services/fake-website-takedown) | Consumer brands, from fast-growing direct-to-consumer labels to established brands, selling through their own stores and on Amazon and other marketplaces in the UK, EU and US. | Takedown's team | From $500 a month, month to month with no annual lock-in; the quote comes with a free 360° report. | | Bolster | Security and fraud teams protecting customers from phishing, brand impersonation, fake sites and social media scams. | Bolster's team | Not published. | | ZeroFox | Security teams protecting brands, domains, executives and the attack surface, with threat intelligence in the same platform. | ZeroFox's team | Not published.

It calls this going beyond takedown, and it covers the hours before any removal. **Victim-level visibility.** It says it shows in real time which individual customers clicked a phishing link or fell victim, so the fraud team can secure those accounts. Removal alone does not tell you who was already caught before the site came down. **Account takeover focus.** It targets account takeover, credential stuffing, man-in-the-middle and remote desktop attacks, and reports 21 million+ takeovers roadblocked in one month. Banks and airlines fighting account takeover get a product aimed squarely at that problem. ## Best Memcyco alternatives in 2026 Takedown and the closest substitutes for Memcyco, from what each says on its own site (read 14 Oct 2026). *Takedown from our own service; the others from their own sites, read 14 Oct 2026* | Service | Built for | Who files | Published price | |---|---|---|---| | [Takedown](https://www.trytakedown.com/services/fake-website-takedown) | Consumer brands, from fast-growing direct-to-consumer labels to established brands, selling through their own stores and on Amazon and other marketplaces in the UK, EU and US. | Takedown's team | From $500 a month, month to month with no annual lock-in; the quote comes with a free 360° report. | | Bolster | Security and fraud teams protecting customers from phishing, brand impersonation, fake sites and social media scams. | Bolster's team | Not published. | | ZeroFox | Security teams protecting brands, domains, executives and the attack surface, with threat intelligence in the same platform. | ZeroFox's team | Not published.

Takedown (trytakedown.com) is not Takedown.co, the creator-piracy service. ## What they have in common **Last updated:** 14 Oct 2026. At a high level, both find copies of a brand online and get them taken down. Specifically: - Both cover copycat websites and lookalike domains and social media accounts. - Both offer a free trial, scan or report before you pay. That said, they differ on who does the work, what each covers and price. Where each one is the better buy is set out below, Takedown first. ## How Takedown works Managed. A person checks every match, you approve each case, and our team files with the platform, host and registrar. Nothing is filed until you approve the case. - **Copycat websites and lookalike domains:** Yes. Lookalike domains, certificate logs, Google search and reverse image search. - **Marketplace listings:** Yes. Amazon in 9 storefronts (US, UK, DE, FR, IT, ES, NL, SE, PL), eBay in 8 (US, UK, DE, FR, IT, ES, CA, AU), AliExpress, Alibaba, Temu, TikTok Shop, DHgate and Chrono24, plus any marketplace where Google Lens finds your product photos. - **Social media accounts:** Yes. Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube and Threads accounts using your brand name. - **Paid ads:** Yes. Meta ads, and TikTok ads shown in the EU and UK. - **Trademark filing watch:** Partly.

CloudSEK says it is built for enterprise security teams; it says 1,000+ cybersecurity teams use its products. With CloudSEK, you file on some platforms and its team files on others. - **Copycat websites and lookalike domains:** Yes. Phishing and brand impersonation. - **Marketplace listings:** Not stated on its site - **Social media accounts:** Yes - **Paid ads:** Not stated on its site - **Trademark filing watch:** Not stated on its site - **App stores:** Yes **Price:** Not published. **Free offer:** Free tools: URL Analyser, Deepfake Analyser, ThreatLens, Mobile App Analyser and Data Exposure Checker. ## Where Takedown is the better buy **You want sign-off on everything filed in your name.** At Takedown a person checks every match, and nothing is filed under your brand until you approve the case. That keeps control of what goes to marketplaces, hosts and registrars under your trademark, with the evidence for each case in front of whoever approves it. **You want a price before a sales call.** Takedown starts at $500 a month, month to month with no annual lock-in, and the quote comes with a free 360° report of what is copying your brand now. CloudSEK does not publish a price. **You want the filing done for you.** With CloudSEK, you file on some platforms yourself. Takedown's team files with the platform, host and registrar once you approve the case. You approve; you do not fill in forms. **You want matches checked before they reach you.** CloudSEK leaves reviewing matches to you. At Takedown a person checks every match first, so the approval queue holds real copies with evidence attached, not raw alerts. ## Where CloudSEK is the better buy **Free tools.** It offers free tools including a URL Analyser for phishing links, a Deepfake Analyser, a Mobile App Analyser, a Data Exposure Checker and ThreatLens, a live feed of scams and brand abuse. A team can check suspicious links and apps without a contract. **Attack paths, not alerts.** It connects brand risk, data leaks, dark web chatter and exposed assets into an attack graph and flags the paths that are exploitable. A security team gets fewer isolated alerts and a view of how an impersonation could lead to a breach. **AI attack surface.** Its AIVigil product watches for exposed AI infrastructure, leaked AI credentials and shadow AI, alongside XVigil's phishing and brand impersonation monitoring. Technology companies running AI products can cover both from one supplier. ## Best CloudSEK alternatives in 2026 Takedown and the closest substitutes for CloudSEK, from what each says on its own site (read 14 Oct 2026). *Takedown from our own service; the others from their own sites, read 14 Oct 2026* | Service | Built for | Who files | Published price | |---|---|---|---| | [Takedown](https://www.trytakedown.com/services/fake-website-takedown) | Consumer brands, from fast-growing direct-to-consumer labels to established brands, selling through their own stores and on Amazon and other marketplaces in the UK, EU and US. | Takedown's team | From $500 a month, month to month with no annual lock-in; the quote comes with a free 360° report. | | Bolster | Security and fraud teams protecting customers from phishing, brand impersonation, fake sites and social media scams. | Bolster's team | Not published. | | ZeroFox | Security teams protecting brands, domains, executives and the attack surface, with threat intelligence in the same platform. | ZeroFox's team | Not published.

Source: https://www.trytakedown.com/compare/bustem-vs-red-points · Updated 14 Oct 2026 ## TL;DR - Weigh Takedown alongside both: a managed brand protection service for consumer brands: a person checks every match, you approve each case, and its team files across marketplaces, copycat stores and lookalike domains, social accounts and ad libraries, with new US trademark filings in your classes watched, from $500 a month. - Pick Bustem if you want one team to file across marketplaces, social media and copycat sites, with no annual contract. - Pick Red Points if you sell across many regional marketplaces and want each one priced and covered under a flat fee. - Every fact about Bustem and Red Points is from their own sites, read 14 Oct 2026.

This page starts with Takedown, then sets out what Bustem and Red Points share, where they differ, and how to move from one to the other. ## Before you choose: Takedown [Takedown](https://www.trytakedown.com/services/fake-website-takedown) is a managed brand protection service for consumer brands: a person checks every match, you approve each case, and its team files across marketplaces, copycat stores and lookalike domains, social accounts and ad libraries, with new US trademark filings in your classes watched. It starts at $500 a month, month to month, and the quote comes with a free 360° report of what is copying your brand, so you can weigh it against both before you pay. - **You want sign-off on everything filed in your name.** At Takedown a person checks every match, and nothing is filed under your brand until you approve the case. That keeps control of what goes to marketplaces, hosts and registrars under your trademark, with the evidence for each case in front of whoever approves it. - **You want a price before a sales call.** Takedown starts at $500 a month, month to month with no annual lock-in, and the quote comes with a free 360° report of what is copying your brand now. Bustem does not publish a price. - **You want new trademark filings watched.** Takedown watches US (USPTO) applications and registrations that use your brand name in your goods classes, and puts the recent ones up for review first. Bustem's site does not mention a trademark filing watch. ## What Bustem and Red Points have in common **Last updated:** 14 Oct 2026. At a high level, both find copies of a brand online and get them taken down. Specifically: - Both are managed brand protection services. - Both cover copycat websites and lookalike domains, marketplace listings and social media accounts. - Both offer a free trial, scan or report before you pay. That said, they differ on who does the work, what each covers and price, and on some of these Bustem is the better buy, on others Red Points is. ## Who does the work **Bustem.** Managed. AI flags listings, Bustem's enforcement team confirms them and files under a Power of Attorney the brand signs. With Bustem, its team files the reports for you. **Red Points.** A detection and takedown platform the brand can run itself, or have fully managed by Red Points' team, on flat fees rather than per takedown. With Red Points, you file on some platforms and its team files on others. ## What each one covers **Bustem** - **Copycat websites and lookalike domains:** Yes. Copycat sites on hosts such as Shopify and WordPress, including host shutdowns and domain seizures. - **Marketplace listings:** Yes. Amazon, Walmart, eBay, AliExpress, Etsy, Alibaba, Temu and SHEIN. - **Social media accounts:** Yes. Meta, Instagram, TikTok Shop and Pinterest. - **Paid ads:** Partly. Google is listed; ad coverage is not detailed. - **Trademark filing watch:** Not stated on its site - **App stores:** Not stated on its site **Red Points** - **Copycat websites and lookalike domains:** Yes. Fake websites and domains; an optional add-on in the self-serve configurator. - **Marketplace listings:** Yes. It claims 5,000+ marketplaces, including Amazon, eBay, AliExpress, Walmart, Temu, TikTok Shop, Shopee and MercadoLibre. - **Social media accounts:** Yes - **Paid ads:** Yes - **Trademark filing watch:** Not stated on its site - **App stores:** Yes. Mobile apps. ## Price - **Bustem:** Not published. Its site says 'No Annuals, No Lock-Ins'. - **Red Points:** Self-serve configurator: Brand Protection Plan $938/month (unlimited detections and takedowns), plus trademarks from $174/month for one trademark and marketplaces priced separately (Amazon, 19 domains, $285/month; all marketplaces and domains $820/month). Fake website protection is an optional add-on. Billed monthly, no setup fees; the order form asks for at least $1,250 a month. Managed tiers (Starter, Professional, Enterprise) are quoted on request. A published price usually means software you run yourself, with caps on removals or marketplaces. An unpublished one usually means people do the reviewing and filing, and the quote depends on how many brands and platforms you need covered. Ask what the tier you are quoted actually includes. ## Where each one is the better buy **Bustem** - **ROI guarantee:** It publishes a 500% ROI guarantee on its homepage, with the line 'if we can't deliver at least 5x ROI, you shouldn't work with us'. Few managed services put a stated return in writing before the first call, so you have a benchmark to hold the service to. - **Enforcement routes:** Beyond platform reports, its site lists DMCA takedowns, domain seizures, host shutdowns and payment processor lockouts. That range matters when a copycat store keeps relisting, because cutting off its hosting or its card payments can stop a seller that a single marketplace removal would not. - **Channel breadth:** Its site names Amazon, Walmart, eBay, AliExpress, Etsy, Alibaba, Temu and SHEIN, plus Meta, Instagram, TikTok Shop and Pinterest, and copycat sites hosted on Shopify and WordPress. One team covers marketplaces, social media and the open web, so a brand does not need a separate tool for each. **Red Points** - **Published self-serve prices:** Its self-serve configurator prices every part: a $938 monthly plan with unlimited detections and takedowns, $174 a month for one trademark, and marketplaces priced one by one, such as Amazon's 19 domains at $285. You can cost a programme before speaking to sales, which few vendors of its size allow. - **Regional marketplaces:** It claims coverage of 5,000+ marketplaces, and the configurator prices regional platforms such as Shopee, MercadoLibre, Lazada, OLX, Carousell and Flipkart alongside Amazon and eBay. Brands selling into Latin America or South-East Asia can add those markets rather than relying on a vendor that names only Western platforms. - **Unmetered takedowns:** Both the managed tiers and the self-serve plan are sold as flat fees with 'unlimited detections & takedowns' within scope, so a sudden spike in counterfeit listings does not raise the bill. You can also choose between running the platform yourself and having its team run it for you. ## Limits to know about - **Bustem:** It does not publish a price; cost and scope are set on a call. - **Bustem:** Trademark filing watch and app stores are not among the channels its site lists. - **Bustem:** The brand signs a Power of Attorney and completes an intake form before Bustem files on its behalf. - **Red Points:** The self-serve route has a high floor: the $938 plan fee is charged on top of trademarks and marketplaces, and the order form asks for at least $1,250 a month. - **Red Points:** The managed tiers (Starter, Professional, Enterprise) are quoted on request, and the contract term is not published. - **Red Points:** Fake website protection is a separate add-on in the self-serve configurator rather than part of the base plan. ## Pick Bustem if… pick Red Points if… **Pick Bustem if:** - You want one team to file across marketplaces, social media and copycat sites, with no annual contract. - You want a written ROI guarantee to measure the service against. - You want enforcement that reaches hosts and payment processors, not only platform reports. **Pick Red Points if:** - You sell across many regional marketplaces and want each one priced and covered under a flat fee. - You want to choose between running takedowns yourself and handing them to a managed team. - You need fake websites, social media, ads and mobile apps covered alongside marketplaces. ## Switching between them 1. **Export your open cases.** Ask the vendor you are leaving for every open and recently filed report, with its evidence. Platforms track reports per rights owner, so reports already filed stay valid after you switch. 2. **Authorise the new vendor.** Sign its letter of authorisation or power of attorney, and revoke the old one with each platform where you registered an agent (Amazon Brand Registry, eBay VeRO, TikTok Shop IPPC). 3. **Hand over your registrations and allowlist.** Trademark numbers, official domains, marketplace stores and authorised resellers, so the new vendor never reports your own listings. ## Summary: Bustem vs Red Points summary *From each company's own site, read 14 Oct 2026* | | Bustem | Red Points | |---|---|---| | Built for | E-commerce brands selling through Shopify and Amazon; it says it has protected 160+ brands. | Brands of all sizes; it says it is trusted by 1,300+ brands. | | Type | Managed brand protection service | Managed brand protection service | | How it works | Managed.

Source: https://www.trytakedown.com/compare/brandshield-vs-bustem · Updated 14 Oct 2026 ## TL;DR - Weigh Takedown alongside both: a managed brand protection service for consumer brands: a person checks every match, you approve each case, and its team files across marketplaces, copycat stores and lookalike domains, social accounts and ad libraries, with new US trademark filings in your classes watched, from $500 a month. - Pick BrandShield if phishing and impersonation matter to you as much as counterfeit listings. - Pick Bustem if you want one team to file across marketplaces, social media and copycat sites, with no annual contract. - Every fact about BrandShield and Bustem is from their own sites, read 14 Oct 2026. BrandShield is an enterprise brand protection suite; Bustem is a managed brand protection service, so they are usually bought by different teams. This page starts with Takedown, then sets out what BrandShield and Bustem share, where they differ, and how to move from one to the other. ## Before you choose: Takedown [Takedown](https://www.trytakedown.com/services/fake-website-takedown) is a managed brand protection service for consumer brands: a person checks every match, you approve each case, and its team files across marketplaces, copycat stores and lookalike domains, social accounts and ad libraries, with new US trademark filings in your classes watched. It starts at $500 a month, month to month, and the quote comes with a free 360° report of what is copying your brand, so you can weigh it against both before you pay. - **You want sign-off on everything filed in your name.** At Takedown a person checks every match, and nothing is filed under your brand until you approve the case. That keeps control of what goes to marketplaces, hosts and registrars under your trademark, with the evidence for each case in front of whoever approves it. - **You want a price before a sales call.** Takedown starts at $500 a month, month to month with no annual lock-in, and the quote comes with a free 360° report of what is copying your brand now. BrandShield does not publish a price. - **You want new trademark filings watched.** Takedown watches US (USPTO) applications and registrations that use your brand name in your goods classes, and puts the recent ones up for review first. BrandShield's site does not mention a trademark filing watch. ## What BrandShield and Bustem have in common **Last updated:** 14 Oct 2026. At a high level, both find copies of a brand online and get them taken down. Specifically: - Both have their own team file the reports for you. - Both cover copycat websites and lookalike domains, marketplace listings and social media accounts. - Neither publishes a price; both quote after a call. That said, they differ on what each covers, and on some of these BrandShield is the better buy, on others Bustem is. ## Who does the work **BrandShield.** AI detection plus enforcement by its own experts, with a 24/7 global security operations centre running takedowns. With BrandShield, its team files the reports for you. **Bustem.** Managed. AI flags listings, Bustem's enforcement team confirms them and files under a Power of Attorney the brand signs. With Bustem, its team files the reports for you. ## What each one covers **BrandShield** - **Copycat websites and lookalike domains:** Yes. Phishing sites, lookalike domains and copycat websites. - **Marketplace listings:** Yes. Counterfeit listings, unauthorised sellers and grey market. - **Social media accounts:** Yes. Fake accounts, impersonation profiles and scam pages. - **Paid ads:** Yes. Paid ad scams. - **Trademark filing watch:** Not stated on its site. It sells Trademark & IP Protection; filing watch is not described on the pages we read. - **App stores:** Yes. Rogue app monitoring. **Bustem** - **Copycat websites and lookalike domains:** Yes. Copycat sites on hosts such as Shopify and WordPress, including host shutdowns and domain seizures. - **Marketplace listings:** Yes. Amazon, Walmart, eBay, AliExpress, Etsy, Alibaba, Temu and SHEIN. - **Social media accounts:** Yes. Meta, Instagram, TikTok Shop and Pinterest. - **Paid ads:** Partly. Google is listed; ad coverage is not detailed. - **Trademark filing watch:** Not stated on its site - **App stores:** Not stated on its site ## Price - **BrandShield:** Not published. - **Bustem:** Not published. Its site says 'No Annuals, No Lock-Ins'. Neither publishes a price. Ask each for the same thing in writing: which platforms the quoted tier covers, whether takedowns are capped, who resubmits rejected reports, and the notice period. ## Where each one is the better buy **BrandShield** - **Phishing and counterfeits together:** It covers phishing sites, lookalike domains, executive impersonation and social media scams alongside counterfeit listings and grey-market sellers. A brand facing fraud against its customers as well as fakes on marketplaces can keep both with one supplier and one platform. - **A 24/7 operations centre:** It says a global security operations centre works round the clock and that 98% of brand threats are detected and removed within its SLA. For brands whose scams spike outside office hours, a staffed operations centre matters more than a dashboard alone. - **AI answers, ads and the dark web:** It monitors AI platforms for misleading or infringing sources that affect how a brand appears in AI-generated answers, and lists paid-ad scam protection and dark web monitoring. That suits a brand worried about how scams reach customers beyond marketplaces and websites. **Bustem** - **ROI guarantee:** It publishes a 500% ROI guarantee on its homepage, with the line 'if we can't deliver at least 5x ROI, you shouldn't work with us'. Few managed services put a stated return in writing before the first call, so you have a benchmark to hold the service to. - **Enforcement routes:** Beyond platform reports, its site lists DMCA takedowns, domain seizures, host shutdowns and payment processor lockouts. That range matters when a copycat store keeps relisting, because cutting off its hosting or its card payments can stop a seller that a single marketplace removal would not. - **Channel breadth:** Its site names Amazon, Walmart, eBay, AliExpress, Etsy, Alibaba, Temu and SHEIN, plus Meta, Instagram, TikTok Shop and Pinterest, and copycat sites hosted on Shopify and WordPress. One team covers marketplaces, social media and the open web, so a brand does not need a separate tool for each. ## Limits to know about - **BrandShield:** It does not publish a price; you request a demo. - **BrandShield:** Much of the platform (dark web monitoring, executive impersonation, external cybersecurity) is security tooling that a brand focused on counterfeits may not need. - **Bustem:** It does not publish a price; cost and scope are set on a call. - **Bustem:** Trademark filing watch and app stores are not among the channels its site lists. - **Bustem:** The brand signs a Power of Attorney and completes an intake form before Bustem files on its behalf. ## Pick BrandShield if… pick Bustem if… **Pick BrandShield if:** - Phishing and impersonation matter to you as much as counterfeit listings. - You want a 24/7 operations centre running takedowns rather than your own staff. - You want how your brand appears in AI-generated answers monitored too. **Pick Bustem if:** - You want one team to file across marketplaces, social media and copycat sites, with no annual contract. - You want a written ROI guarantee to measure the service against. - You want enforcement that reaches hosts and payment processors, not only platform reports. ## Switching between them 1. **Export your open cases.** Ask the vendor you are leaving for every open and recently filed report, with its evidence. Platforms track reports per rights owner, so reports already filed stay valid after you switch. 2. **Authorise the new vendor.** Sign its letter of authorisation or power of attorney, and revoke the old one with each platform where you registered an agent (Amazon Brand Registry, eBay VeRO, TikTok Shop IPPC). 3. **Hand over your registrations and allowlist.** Trademark numbers, official domains, marketplace stores and authorised resellers, so the new vendor never reports your own listings. ## Summary: BrandShield vs Bustem summary *From each company's own site, read 14 Oct 2026* | | BrandShield | Bustem | |---|---|---| | Built for | Brands from SMBs to enterprises, with legal, compliance and security teams named among its buyers; it says it serves 500+ global brands. | E-commerce brands selling through Shopify and Amazon; it says it has protected 160+ brands. | | Type | Enterprise brand protection suite | Managed brand protection service | | How it works | AI detection plus enforcement by its own experts, with a 24/7 global security operations centre running takedowns. | Managed.

With BrandShield, its team files the reports for you. **Red Points.** A detection and takedown platform the brand can run itself, or have fully managed by Red Points' team, on flat fees rather than per takedown.

Fake website protection is an optional add-on. Billed monthly, no setup fees; the order form asks for at least $1,250 a month. Managed tiers (Starter, Professional, Enterprise) are quoted on request. A published price usually means software you run yourself, with caps on removals or marketplaces.

You can cost a programme before speaking to sales, which few vendors of its size allow. - **Regional marketplaces:** It claims coverage of 5,000+ marketplaces, and the configurator prices regional platforms such as Shopee, MercadoLibre, Lazada, OLX, Carousell and Flipkart alongside Amazon and eBay. Brands selling into Latin America or South-East Asia can add those markets rather than relying on a vendor that names only Western platforms. - **Unmetered takedowns:** Both the managed tiers and the self-serve plan are sold as flat fees with 'unlimited detections & takedowns' within scope, so a sudden spike in counterfeit listings does not raise the bill. You can also choose between running the platform yourself and having its team run it for you. ## Limits to know about - **BrandShield:** It does not publish a price; you request a demo. - **BrandShield:** Much of the platform (dark web monitoring, executive impersonation, external cybersecurity) is security tooling that a brand focused on counterfeits may not need. - **Red Points:** The self-serve route has a high floor: the $938 plan fee is charged on top of trademarks and marketplaces, and the order form asks for at least $1,250 a month. - **Red Points:** The managed tiers (Starter, Professional, Enterprise) are quoted on request, and the contract term is not published. - **Red Points:** Fake website protection is a separate add-on in the self-serve configurator rather than part of the base plan. ## Pick BrandShield if… pick Red Points if… **Pick BrandShield if:** - Phishing and impersonation matter to you as much as counterfeit listings. - You want a 24/7 operations centre running takedowns rather than your own staff. - You want how your brand appears in AI-generated answers monitored too. **Pick Red Points if:** - You sell across many regional marketplaces and want each one priced and covered under a flat fee. - You want to choose between running takedowns yourself and handing them to a managed team. - You need fake websites, social media, ads and mobile apps covered alongside marketplaces. ## Switching between them 1. **Export your open cases.** Ask the vendor you are leaving for every open and recently filed report, with its evidence.
