This article aims to integrate multiple FAQs on the Wish platform, including the definition of “false propaganda” and its cases, the specific details of the A+ logistics plan, and how to obtain the “Wish Certified” badge, to help merchants more Understand and comply with platform policies well.

1. What is “false propaganda”?

Wish encourages merchants to use high-quality images and attractive text to describe products, but it is strictly prohibited to use untrue or unverified information to describe product quality, content, or logistics to mislead consumers into purchasing products. If a product is marked as False Claims, it means that the product information page for the product uses false or unsubstantiated information.

Common cases of “false propaganda”

  • Unverified product guarantees and warranties: Wish does not allow merchants to promote products using phrases such as “money back guarantee” or “lifetime warranty.”
  • Unauthorized use of certification agency logos: Wish prohibits merchants from using logos or other marketing materials from certification agencies such as FDA, UPS, FEDEX, USPS, or CE without authorization.
  • Unverified delivery time information: Merchants should not display delivery times in titles, product descriptions, or images to avoid confusing consumers.
  • Unauthorized use of the “Verified by Wish,” “Wish Express,” or “Wish Blue Pickup” icons: Counterfeiting or unauthorized use of these icons violates Wish’s intellectual property rights.
  • Watermarks, logos or trademarks of other e-commerce websites: Merchants are not allowed to use watermarks or trademarks of other e-commerce platforms on the Wish platform.
  • Unconfirmed price information: Wish does not encourage the use of images with prices on product detail pages.
  • Merchant contact information or referrer information: Wish does not encourage the use of merchant contact information or referrer information in product detail pages.

Do product pictures, titles and descriptions involve “false advertising”?

Wish’s “false promotion” policy applies to all content uploaded to the platform by merchants, including but not limited to images, titles, descriptions, prices, sizes, etc.

What is the difference between “false advertising” and “misleading products”?

If a merchant clearly describes the product for sale but contains false, unsubstantiated, or exaggerated information, the product may be flagged as “false advertising.” When a product deliberately deceives consumers into thinking they are buying another product, it will be considered a “misleading product.”
