Create a New eBay Listing

Choose the eBay username (if you have multiple eBay usernames linked to your inkFrog account).

Select the eBay market for your listing.

The "Tell us about your product" field in inkFrog is used for adding eBay catalog product details to your listings. In this example, we've entered "Apple iPhone 7" and then clicked the search button. The results are displayed below. This feature helps streamline the listing process by associating your product with existing catalog information on eBay.

First, note that there are a few eBay category suggestions based on the entered keywords. You may choose the category here or browse for a different category later in the listing process.

Next, there are suggested products based on the keywords, displaying results from eBay's catalog of products. If you find a result that closely matches your product, you can select "Use this item," or you can simply close the window to continue with the listing creation without making a selection.

If you choose "Use this item," the title field and category selection in the listing page will be automatically filled in for you. You will also have the option of including eBay's catalog details and a stock photo with your listing.
