About Us

Prüfengel offers authentic consumer tests in which real users share their experiences with products. Our tests are based on practical applications in everyday life and reflect the opinions of consumers. As we focus on consumer tests, we do not carry out any material, long-term or laboratory tests. The tests are carried out by 1-2 independent consumers over a period of 7-14 days. The exact test conditions can be viewed in the test plan of the respective test report – click here to go directly to the test plan.

Manufacturers provide the tested products free of charge. We charge a one-off test fee for carrying out the tests. In addition, manufacturers pay an annual licence fee for the use of the Prüfengel seal. We also receive a commission for linking to manufacturers’ websites. These remunerations have no influence on our test results or ratings.

We guarantee transparency and a fair evaluation. For a detailed insight into our comprehensive evaluation process, please click here.

Security tests as the foundation for success in online retail

In the increasingly competitive online retail environment, product security is becoming more and more important. For Amazon sellers and online shops, security testing is essential to gain customer trust and maintain the integrity of their brand. These tests are not only a matter of compliance, but also a crucial factor in building a successful and sustainable business relationship with customers. In this article, we will detail the importance of product security testing, its benefits and its impact on the success of Amazon sellers and online shops.

Building trust through security tests

In a world where customers are increasingly concerned about the safety of the products they buy, safety testing is an effective way to build trust. By conducting safety tests and presenting the results, Amazon sellers and online shops can show that they care about the safety of their customers and are willing to invest in their well-being.

Differentiation in competition

In view of the intense competition on platforms such as Amazon, it is crucial for sellers to stand out from the competition. Safety testing provides an opportunity to position products as safe and reliable. Products that have passed safety tests often enjoy a higher reputation among customers and can offer a decisive competitive advantage.

Improving product placement and visibility

Safety certificates and seals resulting from these tests can improve a product’s visibility on e-commerce platforms such as Amazon. Products that are certified as safe are often ranked higher in search results, leading to greater visibility and potentially more sales.

Minimisation of returns and customer complaints

By carrying out safety tests, Amazon sellers and online shops can reduce the risk of customer complaints and returns. Products that meet safety standards are more likely to fulfil customer expectations and lead to higher customer satisfaction.

Valuable feedback for product improvements

Security tests provide valuable insights into the strengths and weaknesses of a product. This information is crucial for Amazon sellers and online shops to continuously improve their products and ensure that they meet the needs and security requirements of customers.

Long-term benefits and customer loyalty

By investing in safety tests, Amazon sellers and online shops can build long-term customer loyalty. Customers who know that products are regularly tested and certified as safe often develop greater loyalty to the shop and are more willing to buy again.

The role of safety tests in branding

Branding is a crucial aspect for Amazon sellers and online shops. Security tests help to strengthen the image as a trustworthy and reliable provider. They are a sign that a company values the safety and well-being of its customers.

Adaptation to changing consumer trends and market conditions

The e-commerce market is subject to constant change. Security tests enable Amazon sellers and online shops to react quickly to new trends and customer requirements. They ensure that products meet the latest security standards and fulfil the expectations of modern consumers.

Conclusion: Security tests as a strategic tool for online success

To summarise, security tests are far more than just a regulatory requirement for Amazon sellers and online shops. They are a crucial tool for gaining customer trust, ensuring product quality and building a strong brand identity. In an increasingly competitive online world, security testing is essential to stand out from the competition and ensure long-term business success.

Increasing competitiveness

Products that have been confirmed by safety tests enjoy increased credibility among customers. This leads to a clear competitive advantage in a market in which customers are placing more and more value on safe and reliable products.

Risk management and compliance

Carrying out safety tests is also an important part of risk management. They ensure that products comply with legal requirements and protect sellers from potential liability risks. This is particularly relevant for products that are subject to strict health and safety regulations.

Summary: Security testing as the key to success for Amazon sellers and online shops

In conclusion, conducting security tests is an essential step for Amazon sellers and online shops to position themselves successfully in the online world. Not only do they provide a way to ensure quality, but they are also an important marketing tool that helps to increase customer confidence, improve product placement and strengthen the brand. In a world where the safety and quality of products is becoming increasingly important, safety testing is a crucial factor in becoming a trusted supplier and achieving long-term success in e-commerce.
