===== New Category Request Guide =====
----

In the **New Category Request** section, sellers can request additional product categories to better align with their products if they don’t see an existing category that fits.  
Follow these steps to submit a new category request:

==== Selecting an Available Category ====
Use the **Available Categories** dropdown to select the most relevant existing category.  
If you don’t find a category that closely matches your products, choose the closest one and proceed with your request.  

==== Providing a Request Reason ====
In the **Request Reason** field, explain why a new category is needed. This could include:  

  * Details about the type of products you intend to list under the new category.  
  * Reasons why the existing categories do not meet your needs.  

Be specific and concise (**minimum 30 characters, maximum 300 characters**).  

==== Submitting the Request ====
Once all information is complete, click the **Save** button to submit your category request.  
Your request will be reviewed by the ComeMarket team.  

==== Tracking Category Requests ====
The **Requested Category Statuses** section displays your past requests and their statuses (e.g., ''pending'', ''approved'', or ''denied'').  

If this section is empty, it means you currently have **no category requests under review**.
