An end to greenwashing in the EU. EmpCo comes into force on 27 September 2026

AI graphics on Allegro, Amazon and Kaufland – what changes will the AI Act bring?

The use of artificial intelligence to remove backgrounds from thumbnails, generate virtual product set-ups or create backgrounds for advertising banners has become commonplace in e-commerce. The use of generators such as Midjourney, DALL-E and ChatGPT has enabled a significant reduction in the costs of visual design.  However, the entry into force of the European Parliament and Council Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 (the so-called AI Act) has, however, introduced a specific legal framework for anyone publishing AI-generated material in online shops and on marketplaces. Will an AI generator place a visible caption on your photo? Amongst sellers, there has been Read more

Q4 begins in the summer. How should you prepare your marketplace sales?

For many retailers, the fourth quarter only really begins in November, when major sales campaigns get underway and customers start looking for presents. In practice, this is already a period of intense sales activity, rather than a time for calmly preparing offers, testing adverts or planning stock levels.  Preparations for the most important period in e-commerce begin much earlier. July and August should be spent analysing results, selecting key products and organising the product catalogue. In September, it is worth starting to test offers and campaigns, whilst October should be set aside for final tweaks and ensuring Read more

High ROAS, zero profit? Check whether the advert is paying off

ROAS is one of the most frequently analysed metrics in marketplace advertising campaigns. Sellers monitor it on Allegro, Amazon, eMAG and other platforms to assess whether their advertising budget is delivering the expected results.  A high ROAS looks good on paper and is often used as an argument for increasing spending. The problem arises when, despite rising sales, the account does not show a significant increase in profit. The company is fulfilling more orders, the warehouse has more work, and turnover is rising, but the final financial result Read more

8 data errors that prevent the algorithm from displaying your listing

A listing may look attractive, feature good photos and have an accurate description, yet still perform poorly. The reason? The customer understands what you’re selling, but the marketplace or search engine algorithm is unable to recognise the product correctly.

Platforms analyse not only the content of the description, but also the category, specifications, variants, identifiers and the consistency of all data. Below are eight mistakes that most commonly limit a listing’s visibility.   1. Incorrect category A product may be well described, but if it ends up in Read more

How to sell on ChatGPT and Google? An AI-powered shopping service

Until recently, customers would type short search terms into search engines, such as „upright hoover” or „running shoes”. Today, they are increasingly asking more detailed questions: Which lightweight vacuum cleaner for a flat with a cat should I choose for up to 1,500 zł? Such queries are directed not only to Google, but also to ChatGPT, Gemini and other AI assistants. A traditional search engine may display hundreds of results, whereas an assistant usually tries to highlight a few products best suited to the user’s needs. For a retailer, this means that their product range must Read more

How do young people influence the whole family’s shopping? Allegro

Young consumers are increasingly not only searching for products online, but also influencing the purchasing decisions of the whole family. They send links, compare offers, and highlight trendy brands and new products. At the same time, they are keen to draw on their parents’ experience and take their recommendations on board. As a result, online shopping is becoming an intergenerational process, in which one person finds a product, another assesses its value for money, and yet another makes the payment. Shopping as a family team effort For many teenagers, their first experiences with e-commerce Read more
