Can a Shopify catalog be pushed to eBay automatically?

Yes, via dedicated apps (CedCommerce, Codisto, official eBay Shopify Integration). Seegea acts upstream so the catalog is clean before using these apps — otherwise you'll push rejected listings.

What are the required Item Specifics?

Varies by category. Brand, Color, Size, Material, EAN are the most frequent. eBay publishes the list per category in Seller Hub. Listings missing critical Item Specifics are downgraded in best match.

How many photos allowed?

Up to 24 photos per listing. Google image, neutral background recommended for the main one. eBay auto-resizes but photos under 500 px are penalized in the algorithm.

Selling on eBay: prepare your catalog before import

On eBay, your listing is both your storefront and your search engine. No room for a weak title or small photos: eBay's internal search penalizes immediately.

Good news: 80% of the work happens before eBay export. A clean Shopify or PrestaShop catalog pushes to Seller Hub or via a connector in a few clicks. The real work is source data quality.

The 3 eBay requirements that make the difference

Readable, exhaustive title

eBay allows 80 characters. Best-sellers use the full length: brand, model, main attribute, size or capacity, year. Weak titles surface on the last page.

Complete Item Specifics

Each category has its mandatory fields. Skipping or mis-filling them demotes the listing in best match. A clean grid avoids going product by product.

E-commerce quality photos

Neutral background, high resolution, multiple angles. Raw mobile photos repel buyers on eBay far more than on Amazon.

How Seegea prepares your catalog before eBay

Seegea isn't an eBay connector. It's the editing layer that saves you days before plugging in a CedCommerce, Codisto or official eBay app:

Enriched titles in 1 click

Seegea's AI fills brand + type + attributes in a 70-character title. Ready for eBay search.

eBay-compatible HTML descriptions

Structured descriptions with headings, bullet points, attributes — rendered cleanly by the eBay template.

Image normalization

WebP compression, 1600×1600 resize, neutral background — applied in bulk across a whole category.

Criterion	Manual approach	Seegea
Title optimization	Listing-by-listing retype	1-click AI on selection
Item Specifics	Entered only in eBay	Dedicated grid columns
Photos	1-by-1 upload in Seller Hub	Bulk preparation
GTIN / EAN	Excel retype	Inline editing
Post-publish edits	Listing by listing in eBay	Bulk edit + re-push

Golden rule: treat eBay as a second sales channel, not a dumping ground. A clean catalog, maintained in Shopify or PrestaShop, pushes to eBay with minimal friction — and can be updated without Excel roundtrips.

The daily reality of an eBay seller

eBay sellers who perform don't spend their day in Seller Hub. They maintain a clean catalog inside their e-commerce CMS, and drive the eBay feed around it. Seegea is the layer that makes this possible without a dedicated product team.

Built in France between Annecy and Chantilly, Seegea supports each new merchant by email and Google Meet. We look at your catalog together, identify the 20% of listings that drive 80% of sales, and prioritize those.

FAQ

eBay allows free listings (partial Item Specifics), Amazon imposes a shared catalog with ASIN. On eBay, editorial quality matters more: internal search weights title and description heavily.
