beginner ~6 min read Updated 2025-11-20

Connecting Depop to FLUF Connect

Depop is one of the most popular platforms for vintage and fashion resale. FLUF offers two connection methods to suit your workflow.

Prerequisites

Method 1: Chrome Extension (Recommended)

This is the fastest and most reliable way to connect Depop.

Step 1: Install FLUF Utility Chrome Extension

  1. Visit the Chrome Web Store
  2. Search for "FLUF Utility" or use the install link provided in the connection modal
  3. Click Add to Chrome
  4. The extension icon will appear in your Chrome toolbar

Step 2: Log Into Depop

  • Open a new Chrome tab
  • Go to depop.com
  • Log in to your Depop account
  • Keep this tab open in the background

    • Step 3: Connect in FLUF

  • Navigate to Connect → Channels
  • Click Add Channel and select Depop
  • Select Chrome Extension Method
  • Click Connect with Chrome Extension
  • FLUF will automatically detect your Depop session
  • Connection completes in seconds!
    • How it works: The Chrome Extension securely reads your Depop session cookie from your browser and shares it with FLUF. Your password is never stored.

    Method 2: Magic Link (Alternative)

    If you can't use Chrome Extension, use Depop's Magic Link authentication.

    Step 1: Request Magic Link

  • Navigate to Connect → Channels
  • Click Add Channel and select Depop
  • Select Magic Link Method
  • Enter your Depop email address
  • Click Send Magic Link

    • Step 2: Get Magic Link from Email

  • Check your email for "Log In To Depop" from Depop
  • DO NOT CLICK THE LINK — this will log you into Depop's website instead
  • Right-click the "Log in to Depop" button in the email
  • Select Copy Link Address (Chrome) or Copy Link (Firefox/Safari)
  • The link will look like: https://webapi.depop.com/api/auth/email/...

    • Step 3: Paste Magic Link in FLUF

  • Return to the FLUF Connect window
  • Paste the full magic link URL into the input field
  • Click Connect
  • FLUF will authenticate using the magic link
    • Critical: 2FA must be disabled on your Depop mobile app for Magic Link to work. Enable it again after connecting if needed.

    What Happens After Connecting

  • ✅ FLUF verifies your Depop authentication
  • ✅ Your existing Depop listings are imported (may take 2-5 minutes)
  • ✅ You can now crosslist new items to Depop
  • ✅ Sales on Depop trigger automatic inventory sync across all channels
  • ✅ Depop connection status appears on the Channels page

    • Sync Behavior

  • Sync method: Polling-based (not webhooks)
  • Sync frequency: Every 6 hours
  • What syncs: New listings, sold items, price changes, inventory updates
  • Webhook support: Not available (Depop has no official API)

    • Re-authentication

    Depop sessions can expire. You'll need to reconnect if:

  • You change your Depop password
  • Your session token expires (typically 30-60 days)
  • You log out of Depop manually

    • How to reconnect:

  • Go to Channels
  • Click the Reconnect button on your Depop card
  • Follow the same connection method you used initially
