Crosslist from Bidzzy to eBay — Automatically
Bidzzy costs you nothing and eBay is free for UK private sellers. Run both without typing a listing twice.
- Bidzzy: a UK-mainland-only marketplace, company incorporated June 2026. Sellers pay nothing whatsoever — no listing fee, no commission, and Stripe’s processing charge absorbed by Bidzzy rather than by you.
- eBay: over 130 million active buyers across 190 markets, and zero fees for UK private sellers since September 2024.
- For a UK private seller this pair is free on both sides. That is genuinely unusual, and it is the reason not to choose between them.
- eBay takes the stock Depop and Vinted won’t — books, vinyl, homeware, pet gear, craft supplies, and the electricals Bidzzy started accepting in August 2026. Bidzzy’s category list and eBay’s overlap far more than a fashion marketplace would.
- Titles need attention: Bidzzy allows 100 characters, eBay allows 80. FLUF cuts on a word boundary, so front-load brand and model.
- Sync runs one way today, and we would rather say so. Sell on eBay and the Bidzzy listing is withdrawn. Sell on Bidzzy first and nothing propagates yet — Bidzzy sold-detection is built but deliberately unarmed until a real Bidzzy order has been seen.
- Cost: 7 days for £1, then plans from £9/month (Starter — 300 products). There is no free plan.
Why crosslist from Bidzzy to eBay?
Bidzzy sellers report a consistent pattern in their own communities: the listings pick up views and impressions, and then very little happens. That is what a three-month-old marketplace looks like from the inside. Bidzzy Ltd was incorporated on 3 June 2026, its iOS app arrived that month, and its homepage counts members in the tens of thousands. eBay has been running since 1995 and reports an active-buyer base above 130 million. The listing you already wrote does not need moving; it needs a second home where somebody is already searching.
The economics of this particular pair are unusually favourable, and they are worth spelling out because most crosslisting decisions involve a fee trade-off and this one largely does not. Bidzzy’s terms state plainly that it is free to use for sellers — no listing fee, no monthly fee, no commission on the sale price — and that standard payment-processing fees are absorbed by Bidzzy rather than deducted from the seller. Meanwhile eBay UK removed private-seller fees in September 2024: a UK private seller pays no listing fee and no final value fee, with the buyer paying a Buyer Protection fee instead. If you are a private seller clearing a house, both channels cost you nothing, and the only real cost of running both is the time it takes to duplicate the listings — which is the problem this page is about.
If you sell as a registered business the calculation changes on the eBay side only: eBay business sellers still pay category-based final value fees. Bidzzy remains free either way, though business sellers there carry a longer payout hold — Bidzzy releases private sellers’ funds after a 72-hour buyer-protection window from delivery, and business sellers’ funds after the statutory 14-day cancellation window.
| Bidzzy | eBay | |
|---|---|---|
| Scale | Community in the tens of thousands; no audited figure published | Over 130 million active buyers |
| Reach | UK mainland only, both buying and selling | 190 markets |
| Seller fees | None at all | £0 for UK private sellers; category final value fees for business sellers |
| Buyer fees | 5% + 80p, minimum £1, capped at £15 | Buyer Protection fee |
| Format | Fixed price with offers — despite the name, no auction | Fixed price and timed auction |
| Postage | Integrated and mandatory — labels generated in-app, buyer pays, tracked | Your own eBay postage policy |
| Payouts | Pull-only from a wallet; private sellers after a 72-hour window from delivery | On eBay’s schedule, typically within days of the sale |
| Discovery | In-app browse, a published ranking algorithm, newest-first | Search — on eBay and on Google |
Two things about Bidzzy genuinely favour it once buyers do arrive, and they are worth keeping listings there for. The first is the £15 cap on the buyer’s protection fee, which neither eBay nor Vinted nor Depop publishes an equivalent of — on a £400 item a Bidzzy buyer pays materially less on top. The second is that Bidzzy publishes its ranking algorithm openly, including the fact that photo count, description length, seller rating and price do not affect placement, and that no seller appears more than twice in a buyer’s feed. That is a level of transparency no large marketplace offers, and it makes Bidzzy a genuinely low-effort place to keep stock listed while eBay does the selling.
How to crosslist from Bidzzy to eBay
Neither channel needs the browser extension, which makes this one of the simplest pairs to set up.
Bidzzy is a credentials channel: you supply your Bidzzy email and password once, they are exchanged for a session token, and the password is then discarded. Every read, crosslist, price change and withdrawal after that runs server-side. eBay is an OAuth channel: you authorise FLUF once through eBay’s own consent screen, and everything runs server-side from then on too. Nothing has to stay open on your computer for either.
- Sign up for FLUF Connect and open the Channels page.
- Connect Bidzzy with your email and password.
- Connect eBay through eBay’s consent screen, picking the eBay site you sell on.
- Import your Bidzzy listings. FLUF reads title, description, price, brand, size, category, subcategory, condition, colour, fabric and photos, and skips drafts and deleted rows so you never index stock that is not really there.
- Review the mapping — the eBay category and the shortened title are the two that matter.
- Select and crosslist, singly or in bulk.
- FLUF uploads the photos, publishes the eBay listing, and links the two so stock can stay in step.
If you run more than one eBay store, connect each separately. FLUF pins every operation to the connection that created the listing, which is what stops a revision or an ending being fired at the wrong store.
What transfers — field and category mapping
Bidzzy holds a surprisingly complete record and eBay wants a structured one, so most of this is straightforward. The two friction points are the title length and eBay’s item specifics.
| Field | Bidzzy (source) | eBay (destination) | What FLUF does |
|---|---|---|---|
| Title | 100 characters, minimum 5 | 80 characters | Cut to 80 on a word boundary, never mid-word — the tail is what goes |
| Description | 2,000 characters, minimum 15 | Effectively unlimited, HTML allowed | Carried across in full — nothing is lost in this direction |
| Photos | Up to 20 accepted, minimum 3 required | Up to 24 | FLUF sends up to 12 across; all of them fit comfortably on eBay |
| Price | price_gbp |
Listing price | Carried straight across on a UK eBay site |
| Brand | Dedicated brand field | Brand item specific, often required | Passed through as the Brand specific |
| Size | Dedicated size field | Size item specific, per category | Mapped into the category’s size specific |
| Colour | Dedicated colour field | Colour item specific | Carried across — one fewer blank than most sources leave |
| Fabric | Dedicated fabric field | Material item specific | Carried into Material where the eBay category has it |
| Condition | Six values (see below) | Numeric condition IDs, varying by category | Mapped value to ID |
| Category | Category plus subcategory | Deep eBay taxonomy with per-category required specifics | Mapped to the closest leaf; override before publishing where it matters |
| SKU | Bidzzy has no SKU field at all | Supported and useful | Nothing to carry — FLUF tracks the link internally |
| Parcel size, package band, letterbox flag | Used by Bidzzy’s own postage engine | No equivalent | Not transferred — eBay uses your own postage policy |
Condition — six values into eBay’s numeric IDs
Bidzzy grades condition as new with tags, new without tags, new with defects, very good, good, or satisfactory. eBay uses numeric condition IDs that differ by category, and FLUF maps value to ID. Two are worth checking by hand. New with defects is a grade eBay does not really have in clothing; it lands at the closest honest equivalent and the defect belongs in the description. And in the electricals categories Bidzzy started accepting in August 2026, eBay draws harder distinctions than Bidzzy does between refurbished, used and for-parts — if you list electricals, look at those before publishing in bulk.
Item specifics, and where Bidzzy helps more than most sources
eBay asks for structured item specifics per category and ranks partly on how completely they are filled. Most source channels leave FLUF guessing at colour and material. Bidzzy does not — it has dedicated colour and fabric fields, so crosslisted listings arrive on eBay with more of the specifics filled than a Depop or Vinted source would manage. FLUF fills what your data supports and leaves the rest blank rather than inventing values, because a wrong specific is worse for search than a missing one. Check the first few listings in each new category, fill any gaps once, and later items in that category follow the pattern.
The 80-character title, and how to stop it hurting
This is the one place a Bidzzy listing loses information. Bidzzy gives you 100 characters and eBay allows 80, so a full-length Bidzzy title arrives trimmed. The fix is in the source, not the destination: put brand, item type and size in the first sixty characters of your Bidzzy title and the eBay version stays a good listing whatever gets cut. Titles that open with adjectives spend their most valuable characters on words nobody searches for.
Category overlap, and the items eBay handles better
Bidzzy is not a fashion-only marketplace, which makes eBay a far better crosslisting destination for it than a fashion platform would be. Bidzzy’s permitted list covers clothing, shoes, bags and accessories; pet clothing, beds, leads and grooming; home textiles, tableware and decorations; books, music, vinyl, DVDs and comics; board games, puzzles, trading cards, stamps, coins, musical instruments and craft supplies; sports and outdoors; sealed health and beauty; fancy dress; and baby and nursery gear. Since a policy update effective 15 August 2026 it also accepts a wide range of electricals, from laptops and phones to small kitchen appliances.
Almost all of that has a well-established eBay category with real buyer demand behind it — and several of those categories are ones where eBay is the natural first destination, not the second. Trading cards, coins, stamps, vinyl, musical instruments and collectible board games are eBay’s historic core. If those sit in your Bidzzy catalogue getting views and no offers, they are the first things to crosslist.
Bidzzy refuses a lot that eBay allows: digital goods, accounts and services of any kind; gift cards, vouchers and event tickets; food and drink; alcohol and tobacco; large furniture; used safety equipment such as child car seats and bike helmets; plants, seeds and soil; prescription eyewear; and used underwear or swimwear unless brand new and sealed. If a chunk of your eBay stock falls into those, it has nowhere to go on Bidzzy — which is a reason to treat Bidzzy as a place your fashion and homeware also live, rather than a complete mirror of your eBay shop.
One operational difference to plan around: Bidzzy’s postage is integrated and mandatory. Its terms require sellers to use the label the platform generates through its logistics partner and to dispatch within five calendar days, and using a different carrier voids tracking, insurance and buyer-protection cover on that order. eBay leaves postage entirely to you. So a crosslisted item has two different despatch processes depending on which channel it sells on, and it is worth having both clear in your head before the first order arrives.
What syncs, and what doesn’t
| Event | What happens | Timing |
|---|---|---|
| Item sells on eBay | The Bidzzy listing is withdrawn automatically | Next sales-detection sweep — 15 to 90 minutes by plan |
| Item sells on Bidzzy | Nothing yet. Remove it from your other channels yourself | — |
| Price changed in FLUF | Pushed to both channels | Within minutes |
| Description edited in FLUF | Pushed to both channels | Within minutes |
| Item deleted in FLUF | Withdrawn from both | Within minutes |
| Edit made directly in the Bidzzy or eBay app | Read back on the next index, not mirrored across | Next index |
FLUF’s Bidzzy sold-detection is written and wired but held in a capture-armed state: it emits no sale signals until a real Bidzzy order body has been observed. That is deliberate. Guessing at a new marketplace’s order and status vocabulary and wiring the guess to a delist is exactly how a crosslisting tool mass-delists a seller’s live listings everywhere at once. So Bidzzy watches and records, and the first genuine order teaches it the shape. Until then, if something sells on Bidzzy first, end the eBay listing yourself.
Two Bidzzy-specific things to hold in mind while reconciling. First, an accepted offer on Bidzzy does not reserve the item — Bidzzy’s own FAQ says it stays available at the full asking price and the first completed payment wins, so an accepted offer is not a sale and is not a reason to end your eBay listing. Second, Bidzzy has five item statuses and only one of them means buyable; an item marked as reserved is committed to someone even though it looks live. FLUF’s index accounts for that, but if you are eyeballing your Bidzzy dashboard, do not read “reserved” as “still available”.
eBay’s revision API replaces the item specifics block rather than merging into it, so a price or description update pushed from FLUF sends the full set each time. If you have hand-edited specifics directly on eBay that FLUF does not know about, make the same edit in FLUF so it survives the next revision. This affects every tool that revises eBay listings, not just this one.
Before and after FLUF Connect
Doing it by hand
- Open Bidzzy and find the listing.
- Download each photo.
- Start a new eBay listing.
- Upload the photos.
- Rewrite the title to fit 80 characters and lead with searchable words.
- Paste the description.
- Find the eBay category.
- Re-enter brand, size, colour, material, condition, type, department — whatever the category demands.
- Set the price and pick your postage policy.
- Publish, then record that this item is live in two places.
- When it sells, remember to pull the other listing.
Eight to ten minutes an item, with eBay’s item specifics doing most of the damage. Across a hundred Bidzzy listings that is more than a working day — and the final step is the one that becomes a cancelled eBay order and a defect on your account when you forget it.
With FLUF Connect
- Select the Bidzzy listings you want on eBay.
- Crosslist.
- Spot-check the trimmed titles and the category mapping on a handful.
And in the direction that matters most — eBay being where the sale is more likely to land — the withdrawal step stops being your job.
Automation on this pair
| Feature | Bidzzy | eBay |
|---|---|---|
| Crosslisting in and out | Yes | Yes |
| Bulk operations | Yes | Yes |
| Withdraw when sold elsewhere | Yes | Yes |
| Sale detection feeding other channels | Not yet — capture-armed, see above | Yes |
| Price and description updates | Yes | Yes |
| Automated relisting | No — Bidzzy’s own auto-renew is the equivalent, set it in the app | Yes |
| Offer management | No — Bidzzy has its own seller offer rules in-app | Yes, against eBay Best Offer |
| Order import | Not yet | Yes |
eBay is where FLUF’s automation does the work on this pair. Crosslisted stock that sits for weeks will attract Best Offers, and answering them by hand is the reason most sellers leave Best Offer switched off; offer management accepts, counters or declines against a floor price you set, so you can leave it on. Automated relisting keeps eBay listings from going stale in search.
On the Bidzzy side, the equivalents live inside Bidzzy itself. It has auto-renew, which resets a listing’s date on a 30, 60 or 90-day cycle and matters because Bidzzy’s published ranking is newest-first. It also has seller offer rules that auto-accept above a threshold, auto-decline below one and counter in between, scoped to all listings, a category or a single item. FLUF does not duplicate those — set them up in the Bidzzy app and let both sides run their own automation.
What it costs
FLUF Connect is a paid tool. Every new account starts with 7 days for £1 — the rest of the first month is charged after those seven days, so you are not paying more, just not all of it up front. After that it is a monthly plan. There is no free plan.
| Plan | Monthly | Active products | Sales-detection interval |
|---|---|---|---|
| Starter | £9 | 300 | 90 minutes |
| Growth | £19 | 1,000 | 60 minutes |
| Seller | £49 | 2,500 | 45 minutes |
| Pro | £99 | 5,000 | 30 minutes |
| Super Seller | £299 | Unlimited | 15 minutes |
Crosslisting, inventory sync, automated relisting, offer management and bulk operations are included on every plan rather than sold as add-ons — the plan you pick changes how many products you can hold active and how often FLUF re-checks your channels for sales, not which features you get. The full table is on the pricing page. Every plan covers all your connected channels, not just the two on this page.

Frequently Asked Questions
FLUF Connect is £1 for your first 7 days, then plans from £9/month (Starter — 300 active products). There is no free plan. Bidzzy itself charges sellers nothing at all, and eBay UK charges private sellers nothing since September 2024 — so for a UK private seller both marketplaces are free and FLUF is the only cost.
Long ones will. Bidzzy allows 100 characters and eBay allows 80, so FLUF trims on a word boundary rather than mid-word. Whatever sits at the end is what goes, so put brand, item type and size in the first sixty characters of your Bidzzy title.
Not yet. A sale on eBay withdraws the Bidzzy listing automatically. A sale on Bidzzy does not currently stock the item out elsewhere — FLUF's Bidzzy sold-detection is written but deliberately held until a real Bidzzy order has been observed, because guessing at a new marketplace's order shape is how a tool mass-delists live listings. Until then, end the eBay listing yourself.
No. Bidzzy is a credentials channel — you connect with your email and password, which are exchanged for a session token before the password is discarded. eBay is a standard OAuth connection. Both run server-side, so nothing has to stay open on your computer.
The collectibles. Trading cards, coins, stamps, vinyl, musical instruments and board games are eBay's historic core and usually its strongest demand, and Bidzzy accepts all of them. If those are sitting on Bidzzy collecting views and no offers, crosslist them before the clothing.
Only if you sell as a business. eBay UK removed private-seller fees in September 2024, so a private seller pays no listing fee and no final value fee, with the buyer paying a Buyer Protection fee instead. UK business sellers still pay category-based final value fees.
Differently on each, which is worth planning for. Bidzzy's postage is integrated and mandatory — it generates the label through its own logistics partner, the buyer pays at checkout, and using a different carrier voids tracking, insurance and buyer-protection cover. Sellers must dispatch within five calendar days. eBay leaves postage entirely to your own eBay postage policy.
No. Bidzzy's own FAQ says that when a seller accepts an offer the item stays available at the full asking price and the first completed payment secures it. Do not end an eBay listing on the strength of an accepted Bidzzy offer — wait for the payment to complete.
Yes. Every FLUF plan covers all your connected channels, so the same Bidzzy inventory can go to eBay, Depop, Vinted, Whatnot and the rest in one pass, and sold-out sync covers every channel an item is live on.
