We're always looking for new ways to increase exposure to your listings, on and off eBay. Starting today, we're thrilled to announce that we're adding Facebook Marketplace to the growing roster of channels where your listings can be found. This week kicks off our collaboration, with a pilot of select eBay listings appearing on Facebook Marketplace in the US, Germany, and France.
There's no action required on your part. Simply keep listing on eBay as usual to enjoy the benefits of broader visibility and the chance to reach a new audience of buyers through Facebook Marketplace. The entire process, from product inquiries to payments, will continue to be securely handled through eBay. That means your transactions, order details, and seller protections will all remain unchanged.
Stay tuned for more updates as we work to expand the number of eBay listings that can appear on Facebook Marketplace, opening the door to new buyers and opportunities.
FAQ's
What happens when an item sells on Facebook Marketplace?
When an item from eBay sells through Facebook Marketplace, buyers will be redirected to eBay to finalize their purchase, following the same process as when they buy directly from eBay.com. Additionally, these sales will be protected by eBay's Money Back Guarantee and all other applicable eBay policies and protections.
Which categories are going to be shown on Facebook Marketplace?
Listings from a variety of categories will appear on Facebook Marketplace based on factors including current shopping trends and listing quality.
Do I need to do anything to enable my listings to show up on Facebook marketplace?
eBay is always looking for new ways to drive traffic to your listings. We already work with a number of partner sites to show your inventory to interested buyers. As long as your account is in good standing, your listings could appear on any of these partners, including Facebook Marketplace, based on user interest, shopping trends, and listing quality.
Will my items only be shown to local buyers?
Facebook Marketplace shows a mix of local and shipped items. That means your listings could appear to buyers outside of your local market, based on the shipping preferences that you set on eBay.
