ZIK Analytics Turbo Scanner tool is a search engine that gives premium members access to over five million Amazon and Walmart products. Using this feature will allow you to significantly improve your product research. Here’s how you can use the Turbo Scanner - watch this video or read the article below.
Launch the Turbo Scanner tool
To get started, click the Advanced Tools icon on the left sidebar menu of your ZIK Analytics dashboard.
Select Turbo Scanner
From the list of available tools, select Turbo Scanner. This should redirect you to a dedicated panel for Turbo Scanner.
Adjusting Filters
In the Turbo Scanner dashboard, adjust all relevant filters to proceed. For instance, you’ll need to select a supplier (Amazon or Walmart) and choose the relevant categories that you want to view products from.
How Turbo Scanner filters work
Note that the availability of filters is based on the selected supplier. For instance, the filters available to use at Walmart are slightly different from those available at Amazon.
Suppliers
In the Supplier section, simply select choose your preferred supplier
Categories
The categories filter is based on your selected supplier. For instance, if you selected Amazon as your supplier, you’ll find categories that are relevant to the retail giant.
You can choose to select a specific category or all of them from the expanded category list before clicking the Save button.
Other Amazon Categories
The Only Prime checkbox will allow you to see products that have faster shipping handled by Amazon. This is usually an indication that such products will result in enhanced customer service on eBay.
The Include books checkbox simply allows you to include or exclude books in the final search results.
The Include DVDs/CDs checkbox allows you to include or exclude these items.
Rating
This affects the quality of products that show up in your final search results. The higher the rating, the higher the quality of the products. This means that setting the highest rating will ultimately lead to fewer products in your search results.
The recommended average rating is 3 stars as it ensures that you have products that offer a decent service. You could also turn off the rating filter to include new products without reviews in your search results.
Number of Reviews
This filter essentially allows you to search for products that have built a great history with your supplier like Amazon. It is recommended to keep the minimum count low to have a higher range of products in your search results.
You can start off with a minimum Review count of 10 to ensure that you’re not missing out on great products.
If you’ve turned off the rating filter, it is recommended that you leave the Review count blank.
Best Seller Ranking
The Best Seller ranking (BSR) filter is great for including products with high demand on Amazon. The highest performing number sells the highest amount on Amazon. For instance, you can select products that fall within the top 500 BSR on Amazon to show up in your search results. However, for a wider range of results, it is recommended that you adjust the filter for the top 5000 BSR.
30 Days Sale
The 30 Days Sale filter is for eBay. It allows you to adjust to include products that have had a minimum number of sales in the past 30 days. For instance, you could set this filter at 5 to include products that have had at least five sales in the past 30 days.
Price
This refers to the minimum and maximum price for products to include in your search results.
Number of Products
This is essentially the total number of products to include in your final search results.
Filter by Keywords
Filtering by keyword will allow you to look for specific products. For instance, you can search for products that have the word cat in their title.
Start Scan
Once you have adjusted all relevant filters, click on the Start New Scan button to start searching for products.
It is important to note that each time you perform a scan, even with the same filters, you will receive a unique set of results that exclude previously discovered products.
Viewing Scans
To view the scan result, simply click the "eye" button that represents your scan.
You will be redirected to a new window showing the full result of your scan. It shows the product image, title, product ID, price, 30 days sales, rating , BSR (for Amazon), reviews, and category.
Getting Products from Turbo Scanner
There are two options to get the products from Turbo Scanner:
Exporting to CSV file. You can choose between Export Selected items or Export all items
2. Uploading the product directly to your lister, click upload selected or upload all.

VeRO Signs and Risky Keywords
If you see red and yellow triangle signs in the product titles, keep in mind that these are VeRO signs and Risky keywords. Thus, it gives you the option to decide if you want to list the product or not. If you don’t want to take any risk, just avoid VeRO and risky keywords completely.
