eBay launches new store features to help sellers prepare for peak season!

Recently, eBay released an announcement that it will launch new features for sellers, including a dedicated Seller Center store tab and a new "About" tab. These new features will help sellers increase the value of their products by telling stories about their stores and products, increase traffic while displaying sellers' inventory, and make it easier for sellers to prepare for the peak season.

eBay said that the new features have a total of six options, their names and specific functions are as follows:

1. Dedicated Store tab in Seller Central

Sellers can easily set up and manage their store through the one-stop shop of Seller Central, and access all the latest store features.

2. About tab

Sellers can fill in a self-introduction through the "About" tab in the store to add a story (attached value) to the product.

3. Inventory Bar

Sellers can choose which items buyers see first by adding inventory bars. The inventory bar themes include "Featured Items", "Just Launched", "Holiday Collection", etc. A maximum of 4 inventory bars can be added, with a maximum of 6 items each.

4. Store Policies

Sellers can use the tool to communicate with buyers to set expectations for shipping, returns, and business policies.

5. Visual Category

Sellers can add up to 6 categories in the visual “Shop by Category” section, each with its own custom image.

6. Marketing Banners

This tool allows sellers to set up clickable marketing banners to attract buyers' attention and highlight products, sales, or promotions.

In addition, eBay emphasized that it has upgraded its in-store search tools. Searches in sellers' stores will display all the same filters and search tools available in eBay's regular searches. When buyers search directly in sellers' stores, they can find sellers' products more easily. eBay will use this tool to help sellers provide buyers with a better consumer experience.

Subsequently, eBay said that in the coming weeks and months, sellers will see more enhancements to eBay Stores, including the ability to add videos to the "About" tab to give buyers a better understanding of the seller's store and business.
