Retaining Promotions while Auto-Relisting (No Smart Promotions)

When you end and relist a listing outside of eBay, all listing data and configurations carry over—except for the promotional ad rate and sale events (more on that below). If you use promoted listings, eBay will not automatically retain your ad rate when relisting through Flipwise unless you adjust your eBay settings. Following the instructions below will create a rule-based promotional ad campaign that gets automatically applied to all new listings.

It also means you don't have to apply a promotional ad rate to every new listing you create; the rule will apply it for you automatically.

Finally, this also allows Flipwise to maintain the promotional ad rate when it performs an end and relist of a listing with a promotional ad rate defined. To set this up,

1. Go to your eBay Seller Hub.
2. Click Advertising in the main navigation, then select Campaigns.
3. Click Create a new campaign (top right).
4. Select "Promote Your Listings".
5. Choose General as the campaign strategy, then click Add Listings.
6. At the top, select Rule-Based, and configure conditions to include:
   1. All categories
   2. Any price range
   3. All brands
   4. Any condition
7. Click the Create new rule button.
8. Select Fixed Ad Rate and enter your preferred percentage.
9. Give your campaign a name.
10. Ensure the Campaign Duration is set to Continuous.
11. Click Launch.

With this rule-based campaign in place, all new listings listed on eBay, including any relisted through Flipwise, will have the specified promotional rate automatically applied, which eliminates the need to reapply it manually.
