Presentation of eBay's partnership with Facebook Marketplace
Summary: fr_news_team announces a partnership between eBay and Facebook Marketplace, allowing eBay listings to gain more visibility by displaying them on Facebook Marketplace in the United States, Germany, and France. No action is required from sellers, and the entire purchasing process will take place via eBay, ensuring the usual security and protection. The selected listings come from various categories, based on shopping trends and listing quality. This partnership aims to attract new buyers and gives listings the chance to be visible internationally.
We are always looking for new ways to increase the visibility of your listings, both on and off eBay. We are pleased to announce that starting today, we are adding Facebook Marketplace to the list of channels where your listings can be displayed. This week, we are beginning the collaboration with a selection of pilot eBay listings, which will appear on Facebook Marketplace in the United States, Germany, and France.
No action is required on your part. Just keep listing your items on eBay and take advantage of greater visibility, as well as the opportunity to attract new buyers via Facebook Marketplace. The entire purchasing process, from product information requests to payments, will continue to be handled securely through eBay. This means that your transactions, order details, and seller protections will remain unchanged.
We will be sure to keep you informed of further updates as we expand the number of eBay listings that can be displayed on Facebook Marketplace, in order to attract new buyers and opportunities.
Frequently asked questions
What happens if an item is sold on Facebook Marketplace?
When an eBay item is sold via Facebook Marketplace, buyers are redirected to eBay to complete their purchase, following the same process as when they buy directly on eBay.fr. In addition, these sales are protected by the eBay Money Back Guarantee, as well as all other eBay policies and protections.
Which categories will be displayed on Facebook Marketplace?
Listings from various categories will be displayed on Facebook Marketplace, depending on factors such as current buying trends and listing quality.
Do I need to do anything to enable my listings to appear 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 display your inventory to interested buyers. As long as your account is in good standing, your listings could appear on one of these sites, including Facebook Marketplace, depending on user interest, buying trends, and the quality of your listings.
Will my listings only be visible to local buyers?
Facebook Marketplace displays a mix of local and international items. This means that your listings could be visible to buyers located outside your local market, depending on the delivery preferences you have set on eBay.
