As a shopper on Amazon, you've probably bought something that have warranty cards as a part of the products' insert. 

But most companies don't stand behind their warranty policy, or they just straight up have flimsy policies. 

Having a lifetime warranty means that you'll have to approve every warranty that comes in, no matter what. However, the bright side to this is that this almost always guarantees a 5-star review since you will actually be standing behind your own warranty policy. 

• Offering a lifetime warranty can help differentiate your products and build a solid review profile.
• Automating the warranty registration and claim process can save time and money, since you don't have to hire someone to approve warranties.
• Selling seasonal products can be challenging, but offering incentives for early registration and extending the product's use for other purposes can help mitigate the seasonality.
• Building a list through warranty registration is a TOS-compliant way to communicate with customers on Amazon.
• Choosing the right warranty duration and offering additional benefits can encourage customers to register and leave positive reviews.
