Required for Display in ChatGPT Listings
The seller_name attribute identifies the merchant or store name associated with each product offer.
It is displayed to users in ChatGPT and partner shopping experiences to indicate who sells or fulfills the product.
When to use
This field is required for all offers listed in ChatGPT’s product experiences.
It ensures clear attribution and helps differentiate multiple sellers for the same product.
[seller_name]should:- Match your brand or store name as users recognize it.
- Remain consistent across all feeds and marketplaces.
- Avoid unnecessary terms such as “official” or “best prices”.
- Be limited to 70 characters or fewer.
Format
- Type: String (UTF-8 text)
- Character limit: 70
- Repeated field: No
- Schema.org property:
Offer.seller
Examples:
| Format | Example |
|---|---|
| Text feed | seller_name: Example Store |
| XML feed | <seller_name>Example Store</seller_name> |
Relationship with external_seller_id (Google)
In Google Merchant Center, the external_seller_id attribute serves as a technical identifier for the seller,
while seller_name provides the public-facing display name shown to users.
| Attribute | Purpose | Example |
|---|---|---|
external_seller_id | Internal or numeric seller identifier (used by Google) | 1234567890 |
seller_name | Display name visible to users in ChatGPT | Example Store |
In SharpFeed, only
seller_nameis required for visibility in ChatGPT.
You may optionally keep a technical seller reference internally for synchronization with Google feeds.

- Keep the name under 70 characters.
- Maintain consistency across your feeds and platforms.
- Don’t use promotional or descriptive text (“Fast Shipping Store”).
