Discount amount #
The discount amount depends on the product category, promotion mechanics, and prices for similar products on other marketplaces. We calculate the discount based on the median product price in the last 30 days.
For example, if the median price of a product is 900 rubles, we’ll ask you to offer a discount on this price.
To participate in promotions, set a minimum discount of:
- 5% for products with a regular price up to 10,000 rubles,
- 500 rubles for products more expensive than 10,000 rubles.
Product price shouldn’t be higher than the competitors' on other marketplaces. Ozon discounts and seller coupons aren’t taken into account.
If the price doesn’t meet these conditions, the product will be highlighted in red. We’ll ask you to change its price, otherwise Ozon may exclude your products from promotions.

Products that can participate in promotions #
You can participate in promotions with any products except for alcohol, electronic cigarettes, and smoking supplies.
To participate in the promotions, your products must meet at least two of the following requirements:
- less than 10% of complaints about the product;
- less than 10% of refunds, unpurchased products, and unclaimed orders;
- the average product rating not less than 3.
If you add into promotion the products that are uploaded less than 60 days ago, we don’t take into account complaints about them, their reviews, and average rating.
Add products to promotions #
You can add or remove products from promotions and change the discount amount at any time until the promotion ends.
Boosting promotional products #
In the app and on the Ozon website, we’ll:
- Create a separate page for each sale.
- Put a sticker on the PDP about participation in the sale and a promotional price.
- Show the stocks counter on the PDPs on promotion days.
- Add a filter by promotional products to the website search.
- Raise the products in search results and catalog.
- Launch TV commercials and ads on radio and on social media, place outdoor advertising in large cities, and send notifications to customers.
You can boost the promotion of your products using special tools. For example, raise products above other participants of the promotion: in the Prices and promotions → Ozon promotions section click Boost your promotions.
Products that don’t participate in the promotions will drop in search results and catalog. It’ll be more difficult for customers to find them.
Track the participation effect #
You can track the participation effect in your personal account in the Analytics section:
- by promotions: their schedule is compatible with the sales schedule, so that it’s more convenient to track the participation effect;
- by the sales schedule: it most clearly shows how sales are growing at the moment.
Price check #
If the product discount doesn’t meet the promotion requirements, we highlight it in red on the Current tab. For the product to participate in the promotion, adjust its price to the one recommended in the Promotion price column.
If you don’t adjust the price, we can stop promoting the product. We send you an email and a notification in your personal account beforehand. After that you have 3 business days to change the price to the recommended one.
