CrosslistyHow to import Etsy listings to eBay
eBay has no one-click Etsy import. You have three options: download your Etsy listings as a CSV and fit them to an eBay bulk upload template, use a crosslisting tool that fills the eBay form, or copy each listing by hand. The CSV route handles many items, but needs care with categories and photos.
The shortcut: Crosslisty imports an Etsy listing and fills the eBay form in seconds, photos included. Free for 5 fills a day.
Add to Chrome, free- Etsy’s download covers active listings: title, description, price, quantity, tags, materials and image URLs.
- eBay’s bulk upload lives in Seller Hub Reports.
- eBay needs a category on each row, and photos must be hosted online.
- Etsy allows 140-character titles, and eBay allows 80, so shorten them.
Updated October 2026. Crosslisty is a Chrome extension (it also works in Brave and Edge) that copies a listing to the other marketplaces, fills each form for you, and removes sold items from your other listings.
Three ways compared
| Best for | Effort | Watch for | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Crosslisting tool | A few items a day | Low | Price, and which fields it fills |
| CSV and Reports upload | Many items at once | High | Categories, item specifics and photo links |
| By hand | A handful | Medium per item | Time spent on photos |
Way 1: the CSV route
- In Etsy Shop Manager go to Settings, Options, then Download Data, and download your listings.
- In eBay Seller Hub go to Reports, Uploads, and download the listing template.
- Copy Etsy’s columns into eBay’s: title, description, price and quantity.
- Add an eBay category and the required item specifics to each row.
- Paste in photo links. eBay does not accept image files through the template, so the photos must be hosted online.
- Upload a few rows first, and fix any errors before uploading the rest.
Check your own file’s column names, as they can change.
Way 2: a crosslisting tool
A tool reads the Etsy listing and fills the eBay form. The Etsy to eBay guide shows how: import the Etsy listing, press eBay and check the form. You still pick eBay’s item specifics where the tool cannot match them.
What to change for eBay
- Cut the title to 80 characters. Start with the brand, item and era.
- eBay allows up to 24 free photos, so all of your Etsy photos fit.
- Replace Etsy tags with item specifics: eBay’s buyers filter by them.
- Price for eBay’s fee of about 13.6% plus a per-order fee, against Etsy’s mix of fees.
Keep both in sync
Once an item is on both, a sale on one leaves the other live. End the other listing straight away. See how to avoid selling twice and crosslisting Etsy vintage to eBay.

Questions
Can I import my Etsy shop to eBay?
Not directly. Use a CSV and eBay’s Reports upload, a crosslisting tool or copy listings by hand.
Does the Etsy CSV include photos?
It includes image URLs. Etsy’s links may not suit a long-term eBay listing, so check them after upload.
Does eBay have a bulk upload?
Yes, in Seller Hub Reports, formerly known as File Exchange.
Are there integrations between eBay and Etsy?
We found no official link between them. Third-party tools fill that gap.
Crosslisty does these steps for you. Free for 5 fills a day, or $15 a month for unlimited crosslisting. Cancel anytime.
