# About the Official Contributions Program

Amazon.com manufacturers and vendors can communicate with their customers in an official capacity through comments on Customer Reviews and Customer Questions and Answers.

Vendors will receive reporting on Customer Reviews and Customer Q&A through Vendor Central to help stay current with activity on their products.

When enrolled in the Official Contributions program, Amazon will ask authorized contributors for the manufacturer to answer certain Customer Questions & Answers questions. When answered, an official "Manufacturer" badge on the answer will indicate to customers that this was posted in an official capacity by someone associated with the product.

An authorized contributor officially associated with a product has the ability to add a highlighted comment on a review. Official comments can add to the review by answering customer queries or clarifying information about the product. Comments are highlighted only if we can verify that it comes from an authenticated creator of the product or from an official Amazon representative. Once authenticated, posters are given the "Manufacturer" badge that show their relationship with the product.

Note: If you are a vendor, please check in Vendor Central's Resource Center for "Official Contributions FAQs" to learn more and get started.
