My content isn't showing. What's going on? 

Double check that you've embedded the correct code on your website. If you have verified that this has been done correctly, but the content isn't displaying properly, please reach out to us for troubleshooting.

Can I customise content delivered by Content Driver? 

Unfortunately you won't be able to customise any of the specific brand content that's delivered via the service. You can control all the other descriptions and messaging on your webpage. As the product content is directly from the brand relating to the product you sell, it is best if the core appearance and messaging remains the same to leverage any additional marketing that the brand does. The last thing we want is to confuse the customer by having differing information across sellers.

Can I use this content on eBay and Amazon? 

We want to drive organic traffic through your direct sales channel, therefore Amazon and eBay aren’t our focus. Content Driver embeds with direct seller websites to ensure that products look their best and sell their best.  That said, you are welcome to screenshot our content from your website to use with your eBay or Amazon sub-stores. ‍If this solution isn’t a fit for you, reach out to us and we can discuss tailoring a content package to suit your needs.
