Product visibility with Bay Promoted Listings

Increase product visibility and accelerate sales

Selling without promoting your product is like winking at a girl in the dark. No one knows what you have to offer and no one will respond

Fortunately, with the eBay Promoted Listings tool, you can boost your item exposure to active shoppers by a whopping 30%, therefore increasing the likelihood of making a sale. eBay Promoted Listings is a risk-free, easy to use service that allows sellers like yourself to boost your listings' visibility to your target market; especially during holidays, events and seasons which provide great opportunities to attract buyers and market your business. eBay Promoted Listings is available to eBay sellers in good standing.

Everything to gain and nothing to lose

Take a look at the many benefits offered by the eBay Promoted Listings service.

Only Pay When You Sell

Unlike many other advertising tools which are charged per impression or click, you only pay for the eBay Promoted Listings service when a buyer clicks on your ad AND goes on to buy the item within 30 days of the click.

No sale. No charge. Plus, you determine the fee you're willing to pay. Just choose a percentage of your item's final sale price before shipping and tax.

Boost Item Visibility across eBay by 30%

Your ad campaign will be placed over 50 different prime spots across eBay. The locations cover desktop, mobile and the eBay app as well as many other prominent pages including Search, View Item, My eBay and Browse.

Plus, some of these locations are exclusive and unique to Promoted Listings campaigns only. Bottom line is, with Promoted Listings, you’ll be able to maximise sales through increased item exposure. Which means a higher rate of being discovered by shoppers who are browsing on eBay.

You are the boss.

You’ll always be able to control your ad campaign. You will have a clear view of what you’ll pay upon a sale. There are no hidden costs.

You can access information on clicks, sales and spending at a touch of a button. You’ll also have real-time reporting at your disposal and can optimise, pause or stop your campaign at any time.

Bosses get bonuses too

eBay’s Top Rated sellers on Promoted Listings will receive $30 each quarter. Anchor and Enterprise Stores will receive an additional $25 each quarter.

Best of all, credits will be applied automatically once you start using the eBay Promoted Listings service. So just sit back and enjoy your bonuses on top of the increase in sales.

Super duper quick and easy

It takes just mere minutes to launch an ad campaign.

You don’t even have to worry about extra creative designs or selecting keywords that work.
