Wix Stores: Managing How Products Are Listed on eBay
4 min read
After you connect your Wix store and eBay shop, products from both appear in the eBay tab of your Wix dashboard.
Note:
Digital and hidden Wix products cannot be listed on eBay and do not appear in the eBay tab.
Now you can decide which products from one channel you want sell on the other and which products you want to merge.
In this article, learn how to:
Listing Wix Stores products on eBay
You can list your Wix Stores products on eBay just as they are in Wix or make changes to suit the eBay marketplace. Here you can also decide on an eBay best offer setting and edit your eBay shipping location.
Notes:
- Categories: To sell on eBay, it is important that your products are listed in the correct category. Wix products are automatically assigned to a relevant eBay category. You can review which category each product was assigned to and update it, if necessary.
- Settings and policies: Each Wix product you list on eBay is automatically assigned your default eBay settings and policies. Note that the default policies can be updated on the settings page. Additionally, you can customize them per product.
To list Wix products in your eBay store:
- If not already there, go to the eBay tab in your Wix site's dashboard.
- In the Product Overview, click Unpublished to view the list of Wix products that are currently not listed on eBay.
- Select an option:
- Publish without reviewing the product: Hover over the relevant product and click Publish.
- Review and manage the product, then publish:
- Hover over a product and click the Manage Product arrow.
- Review the information that will be listed on eBay (i.e. the image, product name, description, etc.)
- (Optional) Customize the product for eBay: You can make changes to any of the product information. This allows you to have, for example, one product name in Wix and another product name in eBay.
Important: If you select this option for a particular field (e.g. product name) they are no longer linked. This means that when you change the name in Wix, the name doesn't change in eBay.- Click the Customize for eBay toggle next to any fields to enable editing (e.g. product image, name, etc.).
- Edit the field.
- Select an eBay Best Offer setting.
- (Optional) Edit your eBay shipping location.
- Click Save & Publish.
Tip: To save your changes without publishing, click the More Actions icon
.
- Hover over a product and click the Manage Product arrow.
After you successfully list your Wix products on eBay, you can view them by clicking Published.
Merge identical products
If you have been selling the same product in your Wix store and on eBay, you can merge them so they are managed as one product.
To merge Wix and eBay products:
- If not already there, go to the eBay tab in your Wix site's dashboard.
- In the Product Overview, click Unlinked to Wix to view the list of eBay products that are currently not listed in Wix.
- Hover over a product and click the Manage Product arrow.
- Select an option:
- Click Approve this match to merge the eBay product to the suggested Wix product.
- Click Choose a different product to select the product you want to merge and click Save.
List eBay products in Wix
The products you have in eBay cannot automatically be added to your Wix store. You can, however, add the product in your Wix dashboard. When you're done, you can merge the two products following the instructions above. After merging, the products are managed as one.
