Snapchat adds ability to showcase eBay listings

No primary category set

It might seem like a peculiar move but Snapchat has partnered with online marketplace eBay to add a new feature that lets users easily share eBay listings.

Starting today, Snapchatters can easily share eBay listings with their followers right into Snaps using the Snapchat Camera on Android and iOS. 

Snapchat cleverly grabs and retains attention from around 300 million people daily. You might be surprised to find out that the app is commonly used to share shopping moments. The platform boasts high engagement levels with shopping being one of the most popular reasons.

More than 142M buyers shop on eBay globally to find everything from the latest sneaker drops to rare, vintage handbags, and now, Snapchatters have a seamless way to share what they’ve been eyeing, or even what they are selling, right where conversations with real friends are already happening. 

How to share eBay listings on Snapchat:

  • Open the eBay app and select any listing
  • Tap the Share icon and then tap the “Snapchat” option to automatically jump to the Snapchat Camera with the automated eBay sticker
  • From there, create an original Snap with the eBay sticker, and layer on using any of our creative tools 
  • When a Snapchatter sends a Snap that includes an eBay sticker to their story or directly to their friends, the recipient or viewer will be able to tap the eBay sticker to jump back to the listing in the eBay app.
