Create a Listing (Product)
How to create a listing as a platform user
Definition
The listing deposit refers to the process of publishing a Product listing on the platform, enabling vendors to offer a single physical item for sale at a fixed reference price. Buyers can then purchase the item directly online or contact the vendor beforehand.
To deposit a listing, users must be registered and logged into the platform. The Log In and Register options must be utilized to gain access to this feature.
In a non-switch platform configuration, only vendors can create listings.
Triggering the listing creation workflow
To understand how this step is reached during the listing process creation, refer to the Rendering Type Selection (Commoditized) section in the documentation.
Step 1 of 3 — About your listing
Listing title
✓
Short, clear title — the first thing a buyer will see
Description
✓
Free-text description of the item
Media
Images / Files / Videos tabs
An automatic translation is set up by default. Any non-manually translated fields are automatically translated into the platform's other languages, unless the vendor enters their own translation for a given language (language selector at the top of the form).
✓ Click Continue to proceed to Step 2 of 3.
Step 2 of 3 — Price & conditions
Category
✓
Category assigned to the listing
Base price
✓
Reference price, all taxes included Your income - Automatically calculated from the Base price, once the vendor's platform fees are deducted Platform fees - Vendor-side service fees, automatically calculated (not editable)
Allow online purchase
Checkbox — enables direct online purchase on this listing (if unchecked, buyers can only contact the vendor)
Delivery available
Toggle — indicates whether delivery is offered for this item
Delivery / hand-off terms
Free-text field describing hand-off or delivery conditions
✓ Once the offer is complete, click Proceed to Step 3 of 3.
Step 3 of 3 — Attributes & Address of the listing
Set your attributes
Attributes provide an additional layer of information to describe a listing. They are structured, searchable entities that are associated with specific categories. The available attributes may vary depending on the category selected for a listing. A "*" symbol displayed on the right side of an attribute field indicates that the attribute is mandatory. For detailed instructions on creating and managing attributes, refer to the Listing Attributes Management section.
Set the adress of the listing
The Address section allows the vendor to provide the location where the item is located / can be picked up. The following details are expected:
Country (dropdown)
City
✓
ZIP Code
Street Number
Street Name
If the full address is not mandatory on the listing, the user can click the arrow icon to hide the ZIP, Number, and Street fields.
Confirm Address checks the information and displays the location on the map.
Publishing the listing
At the conclusion of the listing deposit process, the user must check "I accept the Terms and Conditions" and select either:
Publish your listing
Save as a draft — creates the listing without publishing it; it is marked as Hidden in the user's dashboard.
Show a listing on the platform
The user can review the listing information entered through their dashboard.
Path: Dashboard > Listings > [Listing name] > Presentation
Update a listing
Navigation Steps
During the listing deposit process, the user can update the listing's information by clicking "Back to step X", which redirects to the previous step to edit the previously entered information.
Languages management
The vendor can also update the listing's translations manually via the language icon. The user selects the desired language from the list of available languages. Any field not manually translated remains automatically translated by default.
Once the listing deposit process is complete, additional settings can be managed through the vendor dashboard — see the related article: Edit a Listing (Product).
Delete a listing
Users cannot delete a listing during the listing deposit process, as it is not yet published — they can, however, interrupt the deposit process.
A published listing can be deleted through the vendor's listing dashboard — see: Edit a Listing (Product).
