Shopify is one of the biggest platforms to develop an online brand shop. Shopify app-store has so many integration apps. These apps will help you to manage your e-commerce marketplaces like Walmart, eBay, Etsy, and others. So we can list products in eBay from Shopify using their dedicated app for the eBay marketplace. The eBay app provides you with the access for product listing, passing inventory management, and setting up pricing on your eBay seller central that pulls prices automatically from Shopify.
Fundamentals To List Products in eBay Via Shopify
To get started with the eBay marketplace via Shopify, all you need is the eBay app and your Shopify store connected together. By this, you can take control over your eBay channel from the Shopify backend. In this post, we will show the step-by-step process of listing products in eBay from Shopify.
To pass Shopify listings on eBay, we must follow some steps. First we have to find the unpublished items with Inventory. Items must have a barcode, SKu. After filling out every possible attribute, we can click “Save and Published.”
Now our integration is over from Shopify to eBay. After we save the product, eBay will catch all the information we saved previously in Shopify. eBay will also pull all your Shopify product descriptions, product pictures, pricing, and inventory. But no worries, you will find an option in the app that will allow you not to pass the Shopify attributes in eBay. If you don’t want to pass your pricing or inventory automatically, you can turn them off.
Step 1: Show Active Listing on Shopify to Publish Products in eBay
When we need to publish products on eBay from Shopify. We have to go to the eBay bar. Can you see the “Ebay” app in the Shopify backend? Click the eBay bar. Then the listings bar will be visible. Click the “Listings” bar. This will take us to the next page. Now click “Ready to Publish” Here we can find all the items that we can pass to ebay.
Step 2: Creating Title and Descriptions on Shopify to Publish Products in eBay
Select the item you want to publish in ebay from Shopify. This will turn you to the next page. As you know shopify and ebay algorithms are not the same. So we have to click “custom ebay title” then click “custom ebay description bar”. Now we can edit the titles and descriptions as they should be on ebay. But if we think the shopify descriptions title and categories are fine, we also can go with default settings. So we are scrolling down to the category section.
Step 3: Selecting Category on Shopify to Publish Products in eBay
Inside the category bar, we have a suggested category. But if this does not define our product accurately. We have to find the category that fits here. So this is the category that defines our product perfectly. Now let’s fill in the brand name.. Then fill in the type of the product.
Step 4: Setting Shipping, Payment and Return Policies on Shopify to Publish Products in eBay
By Scrolling down, we have to check the shipping, payment and return policies. We can see, our shipping, payment and return policies are accurate. After that, comes the image section. So the images are perfect as well. The important part is the inventory bar. We are now giving the inventory of this product to 1. And the ebay price will be the same as your shopify prices. But you can use conditions on these terms.
Step 5: Click the “Save and publish” on Shopify to Publish Products in eBay
Now we are scrolling up to Click the “Save and publish”. Now our listing is processed to publish into our ebay account.
Extra Tip: Don’t Forget to Check This!
We were more careful about all the steps. But before passing, we also collected the UPC from our trusted sources. Otherwise, Shopify will mention that issue and restrict the published products in eBay from Shopify.
- Available Inventory
- Attributes Fill In
This is a very simple process but you can’t be in a hurry while passing. We think you can also surely do the publishing process successfully.
