What is Brand Status?
Brand Status is a setting that indicates the visibility of a brand to buyers.
By changing the status, you can control whether buyers can access the Brand Page.
Brand Status types
Select the Brand Status from the following three types:
- Active: The brand is public, and buyers can access it.
- Inactive: The brand is private, and buyers cannot access it.
