People love sharing and talking about their favorite products on social media—and Snapchat users have been taking social media by storm. Whether you’ve got your own following, or you encourage your buyers to share with theirs, Snapchat’s a great way to get some buzz around your business.

Now, sharing listings on Snapchat is easier (and more fun) than ever. We’ve worked with Snapchat to create a quick, easy way to turn listings into eye-catching snaps right from the eBay app.

With just one tap, create a Snapchat-ready design with listing details, an image, and a tappable link back to your eBay listing. Created in collaboration with Snapchat, this new template is ready to share as-is—or you can get creative with stickers, text, and effects to make your listing stand out. Remember to encourage your buyers to share snaps of items they’re excited about with their Snapchat friends.

Explore this feature directly from your Active Listings, or any listing, on the eBay app.

Ready to give it a try? Make sure you’re on the latest version of the eBay app and logged into Snapchat. Tap the Share icon at the top of a listing page or the Active Listings page, select the Snapchat icon, and start sharing!

Stay tuned—we’ll be expanding this feature to more pages within the eBay app over the coming months.


Of course, still no word on the discounted final value fee social sharing incentive that sellers have been eagerly awaiting ever since it was announced as "coming soon" at eBay Open Online August 2021.

Would you post eBay listings to social media for reduced fees?
eBay’s 2.5% FVF social sharing incentive has no official release date, but sellers are already weighing pros & cons.

Let us know when you think of the new Snapchat share option on the eBay app in the comments below!
