What is Facebook Marketplace?

Facebook Marketplace was introduced in late 2016 as an alternative option to buying and selling products or services in commonplace instead of posting in Facebook groups. Here any Facebook users can list a product publicly on the Marketplace and which will reach potential customers and contact the seller directly in this platform. Facebook marketplace is equivalent to eBay and Craigslist. Anyone can sell an item on Marketplace as long as Facebook approves the listing, based on its Commerce Policies.

Users can browse different home appliances, vehicles, and various eCommerce products and services based on categories and subcategories. The Facebook marketplace contains advanced search features so that users can filter searches by price, location, etc., and you can also share listings with your friends who might be interested. Built as a peer-to-peer platform, if anyone wants to purchase on Facebook Marketplace, it’s done through Messenger.

Over the past few years, Facebook Marketplace has rapidly grown in popularity and is now used by over 800 million people in 90 different countries every month.

Users can boost their existing Marketplace listings to increase their products reach so that they sell faster. These boosted listings are marked as “Sponsored by seller” label under the promoted post.
