How to Add a New Price Template
A price template sets custom prices for your eBay listings directly within the app and decides how your products sell, whether at a fixed price or through an auction. You define the pricing rules once, then apply the template to your products or profiles, which streamlines your selling and keeps pricing consistent across your catalog.
You create one on the Templates page by opening Add New Template and choosing Price. The first three sections are the same regardless of how you sell, and then the pricing section changes based on the listing type you choose.
Template name
Give the template a clear name in the Template name field so you can identify it across the app.
Round Off Price
When the Round Off Price toggle is on, the app rounds your prices to the nearest whole number, so a calculated price of $4.6 becomes $5. This keeps your eBay prices clean. Leave it off if you want prices to carry through exactly as calculated.
Listing Type and Duration
This is where you choose how the item sells. eBay offers two listing types:
- Fixed Price sets a specific price for immediate purchase, so buyers can buy right away.
- Auction-style lets buyers bid over a set period, and the highest bidder wins.
You pick one from the Listing Type dropdown, and that choice controls the Listing Duration field and which pricing section appears below.
- For a Fixed Price listing, the duration is set to GTC (Good 'Til Cancelled), meaning the listing runs until you end it, so the field is fixed.
- For an Auction-style listing, you choose how long the auction runs from the duration dropdown, and if the item doesn't sell in that window, you can choose to relist it.
From here, the form branches. Follow the section that matches your listing type.
If you chose Fixed Price: Fixed Listing Price
Fixed pricing gives buyers a clear price and lets them purchase instantly without bidding. You set it through the Final Price dropdown, which offers three methods:
- Flat Price lets you enter one specific price that's used for the listing. Choose this when you want an exact, fixed amount.
- Compare At Price uses your product's Shopify compare-at price as the eBay price. Choose this when you want eBay to follow that value from your store.
- Custom Price builds the eBay price by adjusting your base price rather than entering a fixed value. When you select it, a row appears where you choose Increase or Decrease, choose whether the adjustment is a Percentage or a fixed amount, and enter the value. The app then calculates the eBay price from your base price using that rule and shows the resulting formula as a preview.
If you chose Auction-style: Auction Listing Price
The auction type sells your product through bidding, where the highest bidder wins, and you can run it for a single unit or multiple quantities. You configure the starting price and two optional settings.
The Start Price dropdown sets the opening price that bidding begins at, and it offers three methods:
- Default Price uses your base price as the starting point.
- Compare At Price uses your Shopify compare-at price as the start.
- Custom Price builds the start price by adjusting your base price, using the same Increase or Decrease, percentage or fixed amount, and value controls described above.
Buyers then place bids from the start price, and when the auction ends, you sell to the highest bidder. Two optional checkboxes give you more control:
Buy it now price lets buyers skip the bidding and purchase immediately at a set price, while others can still bid. When you enable it, you set the Buy It Now amount using its own price method dropdown, which offers Custom Price, Flat Price, and Compare At Price. Choosing Custom Price gives you the same builder, where you set Increase or Decrease, percentage or fixed amount, and a value, with a formula preview and an Add more option to stack adjustments.
Use reserved price lets you set a hidden minimum, the lowest amount you're willing to accept. If the auction ends without any bid reaching it, you're not obligated to sell. When enabled, you set the reserve using a price method dropdown and a value field.
Saving the template
When your fields are set, select Save to create the template.
