Introduction
Lazada continuously updates its policies to create a fair marketplace. Recently, the platform has enforced stricter rules on product pricing and promotional discounts. For multi-store sellers, manually checking each shop for compliance is time-consuming and prone to errors. Violations can lead to listing removals, account penalties, or even suspension. This guide walks you through the essential Lazada pricing and promotion requirements and shows how SpeedSell's multi-store management tools can help you stay compliant effortlessly.

Key Steps
1. Understand Lazada's Pricing and Promotion Rules
Lazada prohibits misleading pricing practices, such as artificially inflating the original price to make discounts appear larger. Key requirements include:
- The original price must be the actual selling price within the past 30 days.
- Discounted prices must be genuine and not exceed platform-defined maximum discount rates.
- Bundle and flash sale prices must follow additional restrictions.

2. Use SpeedSell to Unify Price Management Across Shops
Instead of logging into each shop separately, SpeedSell provides a centralized dashboard where you can view and update prices across all your Lazada stores. This ensures consistency and reduces the risk of one shop using an incorrect price that violates policy.
3. Set Up Promotion Approval Workflows
SpeedSell allows you to create custom workflows for promotions. For example, before a discount campaign goes live, a manager can review price changes against compliance rules. This extra layer of review helps catch potential violations early.
4. Monitor Price History and Compliance
Use SpeedSell's reporting tools to track price changes across shops. Generate reports showing price history and compare them against Lazada's requirements. If any suspicious activity is detected, you can quickly investigate and correct it.
5. Train Your Team with SpeedSell's Shared Environment
SpeedSell's browser isolation feature allows you to create separate, isolated store environments. Train your staff on proper pricing practices within these sandboxed profiles without affecting live stores. This reduces the chance of accidental non-compliant uploads.
By integrating SpeedSell into your daily operations, you not only save time but also build a systematic compliance process. For a deeper look at how SpeedSell can transform your multi-store management, visit the official product features page.
