Outshifter product listings are universal, meaning they can be sold multiple places online simultaneously. You can create universal product listings manually or by syncing and importing products from your current eCommerce system.

LISTING MANUALY

To list products manually head over to Products by clicking the label icon in the main menu. Then press My Listings and Create New.

‍Please fill out all required fields:

IMAGES

• Product Image - The product image should clearly show your product, making it easy for any potential customer to see what the product is. We require this image to be on a white background. The best file type for images is JPEG. Images can have a maximum size of 2MB. However, make sure the images have good quality and high resolution, as we remove product listings that don't meet our quality standards.
• Cover Image - This is how the product will be displayed. We recommend using a photo with a non-white background, for instance a campaign or lifestyle image.
• Gallery Images - Here you can upload additional images of the product.
  

You can drag and drop images to rearrange their order.
