Listing Rules for OfferUp Pro

These guidelines explain what you can and cannot include in your OfferUp Pro listings. To help your items shine and ensure a smooth selling experience, follow these guidelines to create your listings. 

Note

OfferUp may remove any listings that do not adhere to these guidelines.


Photos 

  • Include 1 to 12 clear, well-lit, and accurate photos of the item.
  • Photos should only show the item being sold, not multiple items.
  • Photos must depict the actual item for sale, not advertisements or promotions.
  • Photos should not include any text, banners, stickers, or pricing information.
  • Photos should not include any contact information.
  • Photos should not be stock photos, photos taken from other websites, or photos that infringe on others' intellectual property. 

Title 

  • Use a clear and accurate title that describes your item.
  • Do not include contact information, website URLs, or physical addresses in the title.

Description 

  • Provide accurate details about your item in the description.
  • Do not include any contact information, website URLs, or physical addresses in the description.
  • You may include financing, custom pricing, and down payment information here if you list the full price in the Price field.
  • Do not solicit risky payment methods like wire transfers, cryptocurrency, or gift cards.

Category 

  • Post your item in the correct category.
  • Do not select an inaccurate category to avoid listing fees.

Condition 

  • Select the condition that most accurately reflects your item's true state.

Price 

  • List the full price of the item.
  • Do not include financing, custom pricing, and down payment information here; this belongs in the Description field.
  • The price should be reasonable and not significantly higher or lower than the standard market value.

Location 

  • The item's location should accurately reflect where it is within the United States.

Additional restrictions

No duplicate listings: Avoid creating more than one listing for the exact same item. If you have multiple quantities of the same item, post them one at a time. Once an item sells, you can then post the next one.

Single category only: Do not post the same item in more than one category. Each item should only appear in a single, relevant category.
