How IP Accelerator works

Step 1

Log in to Seller Central

Log in to Seller Central, or sign up for a selling account if you don’t already have one. We recommend using a Professional selling account so you can take advantage of a full range of services.

Step 2

Access IP Accelerator

Access IP Accelerator anytime from the Seller Central main menu by clicking Apps and Services, then Explore Services. Select IP Accelerator from the drop-down menu, click Search, then explore the list of service providers.

Step 3

Contact a provider

After selecting a provider, review their information and click Contact Provider. Enter information about your request in the pop-up, then click Submit Request. Providers should respond within two business days.

Note: If you’ve already created a Brand Registry account, make sure the email address associated with your request matches the address you use to log into Brand Registry.

Step 4

Register your trademark

Your service provider will guide you through each step of the trademarking process. Once your trademark application has been filed with the appropriate trademark or intellectual-property office, your provider will notify you that you’re ready to enroll in Brand Registry.

Step 5

Enroll your brand

Create a Brand Registry account using the same credentials as your Seller Central account, then submit your Brand Registry application.
