How to Get WooCommerce eBay Sync Using LitCommerce

Among many collections available, LitCommerce is a reliable and powerful multichannel selling tool that allows you to integrate eBay with WooCommerce in just four simple steps. Let’s discover how LitCommerce can make it!

Step 1: Connect WooCommerce to eBay

Let’s dive into our WooCommerce eBay integration detailed guidelines

• First, log into the LitCommerce app,  you can use your Google or Facebook account or create a new one. 

After successfully connecting WooCommerce, proceed to the next step–Connect to eBay. First, make sure that you already have an eBay account.

Here is how to connect eBay with LitCommerce: 

• Click the Connect button under the eBay logo in the Setup First Channel window. 
• Access your eBay account and grant LitCommerce the necessary permissions to integrate with eBay. 
• In the Setup First Channel section, select eBay as your additional sales channel. Enter a channel name,  and select your store’s region, then click Connect Your Account to integrate with LitCommerce.

• Log into your eBay account to start listing the products in the next step. 

Once finished, you’re taken back to the LitCommerce dashboard and finish step 1 to enable the WooCommerce eBay Sync feature.

Step 2: List & import products

We will offer in-depth clarifications for each situation to facilitate the flawless execution of all preferences

Case 1: List WooCommerce products to eBay

After you connect WooCommerce to LitCommerce, your WooCommerce products will automatically be imported to the LitCommerce app.

From here, you can start listing products on eBay right away.

1.1. Manual Publish

If you want to list certain products individually, you can follow these below steps.

Step 1: Select the products you want to list on eBay

• Navigate to the All Products section in the left sidebar.
• Select the products you want to (bulk selection is supported) to list on eBay by checking the corresponding boxes.
• Click Select Action and Add to Channel Drafts.

• Check the box beside the eBay logo and click Add As Draft Now.

Your product listings will be saved as drafts on eBay, allowing you to review and edit them before making them live. 

Step 2: Edit draft listings

eBay needs extra information that may not exist in WooCommerce, such as categories, business policies, and shipping rules. So, you need to edit draft listings before they go live.

To edit the draft listing, navigate to eBay on the left sidebar,

– Click on the title of the product you want to edit.

– Fill in the product’s info before posting your listing to eBay, such as:

• Description: LitCommerce uses AI to help optimize your product description. It adjusts content to match eBay’s standards while still letting you add your own keywords and details.

• Category: When you click the Category tab, LitCommerce will help you find a suggested category from the eBay system. This automated feature saves time compared to manual searching. However, you can manually browse or search for different categories on eBay to assign to your products.

Alternatively, you can apply Templates and Recipes to adjust product information in bulk. When you apply a template:  

• Any future changes to that template will automatically update all linked listings
• You save time by avoiding repeated manual edits

Available templates for eBay include:

• Category Template (required)
• Business Policies Template (required)
• Pricing Template (optional)
• Title & Description Template (optional)

Using different templates together creates a “recipe” that makes listing faster and more consistent.

Step 3: Save & Publish Live to eBay

Once everything is ready, click “Save & Publish Live to eBay” and the listing will be moved to the Active tab.

1.2. Quick Publish to eBay & Automated Listings

For a quick and efficient way to list multiple WooCommerce products on eBay, we recommend using Quick/Auto Publish to eBay. This feature lets you list multiple products at once from a single screen.

To get started, go to Add / Manage Sale Channels in the left menu. Select eBay, then click Quick/Auto List to eBay at the top.

Step 1: Select Products

You can choose which WooCommerce products you want to publish to eBay in two ways:

• Select All Products from your WooCommerce. Choose this if you want to publish all products from your WooCommerce store to eBay.
• Select Products from your WooCommerce that match specific conditions. This option lets you filter products using simple conditions, such as product type, vendor, tags and status.

For example, if you only want to list products from the “Winter” collection, select Product Type and set it to equals “Winter.”

Step 2: eBay Listing Setup

Now you need to apply templates to your WooCommerce products so they meet eBay’s listing requirements.

Once everything looks good, click Next to continue.

Step 3: Save and Schedule (Optional)

If you want to save your setup and automate future publishing, you can use the Automated Listings feature in this step.

• Turn on Save this setup for future use
• Give your setup a name so you can recognize it later 
• Enable Activate automatic publishing if you want listings to run on a schedule 
• Choose the timing options that fit your workflow

This feature is especially useful if you often add new products to WooCommerce and don’t want to list them on eBay manually each time. You can simply schedule this setup with your preferred update frequency, and LitCommerce will automatically publish new WooCommerce products to eBay for you.

Step 4: Publish to eBay

You’ll now see a summary of how many products will be listed and which templates are applied. 

When you’re ready, click Publish to eBay and LitCommerce will start listing your WooCommerce products on eBay automatically.

Case 2: Import eBay listings and create them on WooCommerce

In this second case, you want to build listings on WooCommerce by importing them from eBay. This guide applies when you have a live listing on eBay but not your WooCommerce store.

• On the left sidebar, go to your eBay store by selecting it from the sidebar menu in LitCommerce. 
• From your eBay interface, click on the Import from eBay button.

• Before starting the import, you’ll be prompted with a few more questions. Simply choose whether you’d like to re-import your eBay listings, auto-link products, or apply specific filters. Once everything is set, click Begin Import to proceed.

• Once the import is complete, go back to your eBay store in LitCommerce. You can see all eBay listings are now imported to the LitCommerce app. Select the products you want to list on WooCommerce,  click Select Action, then choose Create on WooCommerce.

Case 3: Integrate eBay with WooCommerce when having products on both eBay and WooCommerce

For those with identical products listed on both WooCommerce and eBay, linking them to manage sales and inventory effectively is crucial. 

There are two ways to link listing on LitCommerce. The first way is when you Import eBay listings. We have the option to auto-link listings, which you can select, and from there, the listings between eBay and WooCommerce will be linked automatically based on matching SKUs.

However, there may be instances where not all SKUs match. If that happens, here’s how you can manually link the same products across different sales channels: 

• A blue dot indicates linked products 
• A red dot shows unlinked items

If any products remain unlinked, hover over the red icon, click Link to a product, and manually select or enter the matching product SKU, then click Select button once you found your preferred item. 

Once your product linking is completed, the red icon will turn to blue, and you’ll receive a notification from LitCommerce.

Step 3: Turn on WooCommerce eBay sync

After listing and importing products and also linking them together on LitCommerce. Let’s move to the WooCommerce eBay sync step by activating the three sync features on volumes, prices, and orders. 

Click on the switches beside the features you would like to enable and confirm to activate it. 

In your eBay window, go to Channel Settings. You will see 3 sections there: Pricing, Inventory, and Order when scrolling down to each section.

Pricing synchronization

With this eBay WooCommerce sync feature, you can manage prices on LitCommerce:

For the eBay marketplace, LitCommerce has a Strikethrough Price (STP) setting. This feature informs buyers that their listed items have been reduced in price. This feature entails using a line that is “striking” the item’s original price, indicating a discount. The listing will display the amount of money saved alongside a new Buy It Now price for the item.

• To enable the price sync feature, turn on the Price Sync button, and LitCommerce will help you sync prices for your sales channel.
• If you switch on the Use Sale Price option, LitCommerce will sync the sale price instead. 
• You can set Price Rules for each channel to adjust and control pricing. These rules use the base price from your central catalog and apply the formula you’ve set before pushing updates to all listings on eBay. You can adjust the price of all your eBay listings by a specific amount or percentage. Once you’ve set the rules, they’ll automatically apply to all your listings.
• You can use the Price Rules feature to convert currency if you sell overseas.

Inventory synchronization

Besides pricing, switching Inventory sync buttons allows update the quantities on eBay to match WooCommerce, and any changes in the stock quantities in your main store will be reflected on eBay automatically LitCommerce will automatically update the inventory quantity on your eBay sales channels to match the quantity in your WooCommerce store. Also, let’s discover even more functions this feature offers:

• Keep the product active allows you to keep your product in eBay active if the product in the WooCommerce store is in status private/draft/archived.
• eBay Out of Stock Control helps you allows you to determine what happens when the stock of a product reaches 0 on eBay. You can keep the listing alive but mark it as out of stock or let the listing end when the stock quantity reaches 0 on eBay.
• Auto relist allows you to determine whether LitCommerce will automatically relist a product when it becomes available again in WooCommerce. You can automatically relist the product with the same listing details as before without deleting the old listing and do it manually. LitCommerce is now supporting 2 options: Auto Relist Fixed-price items and Auctions on eBay.

• Inventory rules: can create certain inventory rules to instantly adjust the displayed quantity on eBay in line with those on WooCommerce. Once you enable this feature, you can edit a particular Quantity, together with the Minimum Quantity and Maximum Quantity you want to show on eBay via this rule.

For example, the quantity in your WooCommerce is 500. If you set the maximum quantity per item to 200, then your quantity on eBay will appear as 200. This WooCommerce eBay sync feature is a useful technique to create scarcity in your listings, hide how many you actually have from other sellers, and get around eBay’s selling limits.

Order synchronization

Continue scrolling down to the Order section. The WooCommerce eBay sync feature on LitCommerce saves your effort in managing multiple channels by allowing order synchronization. In specific, new eBay orders can be synced into WooCommerce, allowing you to manage and fulfill everything from your WooCommerce dashboard.

To enable this, make sure the Import Orders to Main Store option is switched on. When customers place new orders, inventory quantities are automatically reduced across all connected channels. From now on, you can supervise and fulfill your order flow from both channels in just one place. In addition, here are some more functions on this feature: 

• Order with Unlinked Products Notifications option will allow us to send an email when you have an unlinked order on LitCommerce that can not be imported to WooCommerce on LitCommerce.
• Import Orders with Unlinked Products enables even unlinked products to be imported into WooCommerce. In addition, when products are imported into WooCommerce, linked products will have their stock updated, but unlinked products won’t. 
• There are other order sync options such as Order Number Prefix, Import Order Without Tax, Customers Notification, Disable New Order Notification, Order with Unliked Products Notification.

Other settings

LitCommerce also offers additional sync options, such as SKU sync, title, description sync.

And:

• Auto Trim Title option to auto fit your title to meet eBay’s 80-character limit.
• Clean Listing  Description option to auto remove Javascript, Cookie, iframe html tag from description since they are not allowed by eBay

Carrier service mapping

Carrier service mapping lets you map your WooCommerce carrier to an eBay carrier, so any order fulfilled through WooCommerce will show the correct tracking carrier on eBay.

Step 4: Manage orders on WooCommerce

After enabling the order sync feature, you can manage all your WooCommerce orders through the WooCommerce dashboard. 

There are 5 main tabs on the order page: All, Open, Completed, Ready to Ship and Unlinked. This dashboard will be your central hub for tracking and managing orders across all your sales channels.
