The problem

Unlicensed products cost you more than sales:

Rogue resellers

Unlicensed sellers list counterfeit products, providing consumers with inferior products, damaging your brand's reputation.

Unlicensed products

Pirated goods show up where it's hardest for consumers to authenticate — online marketplaces.

Channel conflict

Your real partners lose trust when fake products aren't removed quickly.

Our proactive approach

Verify, surface, and remove unlicensed sellers and products.

You can't enforce what you can't see. VantageBP verifies marketplace sellers against your authorized list, surfaces the unauthorized storefronts and products, and runs the enforcement workflow for you — verification requests, identification, and takedowns — backed by a database of 100,000+ identified resellers and real investigative work.

Licensed product defense & investigation

Trace counterfeit goods to their source — then shut it down

Unauthorized manufacturing, distribution, and sale of licensed products erodes your pricing, reputation, and customer trust. We trace false products through supply chain analysis and turn that intelligence into marketplace enforcement.
