faq:
  - question: "Can I crosslist to OLX with Sellu?"
    answer: "OLX integration is coming soon on Sellu. When it launches, you'll create one item in Sellu's stock manager and publish it to OLX alongside Vinted and your other marketplaces, with per-marketplace titles and prices, and automatic delisting everywhere else when the item sells."
  - question: "Which Sellu plan includes OLX?"
    answer: "OLX — like every marketplace beyond Vinted and Wallapop — requires the Unlimited plan (€9.99/month, or 20% less billed annually). Free and Pro Extension cover Vinted plus Wallapop only."
  - question: "Is it free to sell on OLX?"
    answer: "In most countries and categories, listing on OLX is free; OLX monetizes through paid promotion (bumping a listing to the top), featured badges and packages, and fees in a few premium categories. Exact conditions vary by country — check your local OLX site."
  - question: "Who buys on OLX?"
    answer: "OLX reaches a broad local audience — families furnishing homes, students, hobbyists, and bargain hunters — across Poland, Romania, Portugal, Bulgaria, Brazil, and other countries. Most buyers search within their city and prefer local pickup, with chat-based negotiation before the deal."
  - question: "What sells best on OLX?"
    answer: "Home and garden, electronics, fashion, baby and kids goods, vehicles and parts, and sports equipment move consistently. OLX is also one of the biggest channels in its markets for real estate, cars and jobs, making it a general classifieds rather than a fashion-only platform."
  - question: "Does Sellu delist my OLX listing when the item sells on Vinted?"
    answer: "That's the design. Sellu's stock manager tracks one inventory pool across your connected marketplaces, and the OLX integration will auto-delist the item everywhere else the moment it sells in one place, preventing double-sales."

> **The short version:** Yes — Sellu is adding OLX to its cross-listing hub. You'll create one item in Sellu's stock manager, publish it to OLX alongside Vinted with per-marketplace titles and prices, and Sellu auto-delists it everywhere else the moment it sells somewhere. OLX support is coming soon and requires the Unlimited plan. Vinted automation is live today, and you can [join the waitlist](https://sellu.app/waitlist) for OLX.

## What is OLX and who buys there

OLX is one of the world's largest networks of local classifieds, run by the OLX Group (part of Prosus). It operates national sites across Europe, Latin America and beyond — with [OLX Poland](https://www.olx.pl), OLX Romania, and OLX Portugal among the most active in Sellu's core markets — plus large operations in Brazil, Bulgaria, Kazakhstan, Ukraine, Uzbekistan and other countries.

Unlike fashion-first resale apps, OLX is a **general classifieds**: people buy and sell almost anything, and in many countries it is also the go-to channel for cars, real estate and jobs.

**Who the buyers are:**

| Buyer persona | What they come for | Typical behavior |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Families & homeowners | Furniture, home & garden, appliances, kids goods | Local pickup, negotiate on price |
| Students & young adults | Electronics, bikes, dorm furniture, clothing | Budget-driven, fast decisions |
| Hobbyists & DIYers | Tools, spare parts, sports gear, collectibles | Patient, search by keyword |
| Small businesses | Stock clearance, used equipment, vehicles | Bulk purchases, repeat buying |

The common thread is **locality**: OLX buyers search within their city, chat with the seller, agree on a price, and often pick the item up in person. That means your listing needs to win two searches — the platform's and the buyer's trust in the chat.

## Fees and economics of selling on OLX

OLX pricing varies by country and category, so treat every number here as approximate and check your local site:

- **Listing is free** in the vast majority of categories — no insertion fees like eBay.
- **Paid promotion is how OLX monetizes**: bumping a listing to the top, highlighting it, keeping it fresh in search, and packages for high-volume sellers. Expect roughly €1–€10 per promotion depending on the category and country.
- **A few categories charge per listing** (e.g., vehicles or services in some countries) — usually a small flat fee.
- **No commission on sales** in the core C2C flow: you keep the cash from a local pickup; shipping is arranged between buyer and seller.

For resellers, that math is attractive: free exposure plus optional promotion means OLX can be a high-margin channel — the main costs are your time in chat and the logistics of handover.

## What sells best on OLX

Sellu sellers who also run OLX accounts typically get the strongest results in:

- **Home & garden**: furniture, lamps, decor, kitchen appliances, tools — huge local demand, bulky items nobody ships.
- **Electronics**: phones, laptops, consoles, cameras — high search volume, price-sensitive buyers.
- **Fashion**: branded clothing and shoes at sharp prices, especially in Romania and Portugal.
- **Baby & kids**: strollers, clothes bundles, toys — families replace constantly.
- **Sports & leisure**: bikes, gym equipment, camping gear.
- **Collectibles & hobby**: vinyl, retro tech, model kits, fishing gear.

If an item is heavy, bulky, or awkward to ship, OLX is often the channel where it actually sells — that's the complement to shipping-first platforms like Vinted and eBay.

## How to crosslist to OLX with Sellu

Sellu's cross-listing hub treats OLX as one more sales channel next to Vinted, Wallapop, eBay, Facebook Marketplace, Poshmark, Mercari, Whatnot, Shopify, WooCommerce and BigCommerce:

1. **Create the item once** in Sellu's stock manager — photos, title, condition, cost and target price.
2. **Publish to OLX** from the listings screen. Sellu adapts the title, description and price per marketplace, so your OLX copy can be keyworded for classifieds search (e.g., "Sofa 3 lugares — Lisboa") while your Vinted copy stays fashion-optimized.
3. **Sync stock automatically.** One item, one inventory pool: when it sells anywhere, Sellu delists it from every other connected marketplace, so you never sell the same sofa twice.
4. **Track everything in one place** — views, chats, sales and margins per marketplace.

**Status:** Vinted is live today. OLX is on the roadmap — join the [waitlist](https://sellu.app/waitlist) to be notified when it launches.

**Plan:** all marketplaces beyond Vinted and Wallapop (including OLX) require the [Unlimited plan](https://sellu.app/pricing) (€9.99/mo).

## A crosslisting strategy that works for OLX

1. **Price for the local market.** OLX buyers negotiate. List 10–15% above your floor so the "best price" you give in chat still protects your margin — Sellu keeps a per-marketplace price so OLX can differ from your Vinted price.
2. **Keyword the title for classifieds search.** On OLX, buyers type "escritório usado", "bicicleta MTB" or "iphone 12 64gb" — put the object, condition and location in the title, not hashtags.
3. **Use bumping deliberately.** Refresh or bump your OLX listing when local demand is highest — evenings and weekends — instead of paying for permanent promotion.
4. **Lean on local pickup.** Mark items as "pickup preferred": fewer messages, no shipping disputes, and OLX's chat keeps the conversation in one place.
5. **Let auto-delist protect you.** The moment an item sells on Vinted or eBay, Sellu removes the OLX listing — no more "sorry, already sold" messages.
