What PrestaBay is

PrestaBay is the PrestaShop module for eBay integration. The concepts it introduced, including selling profiles, selling lists, bulk listing operations and marketplace data downloads, are the same ones the modern Salestio applications use across every platform.

These recordings are the original module manuals. They are short and task-shaped, and for anyone running PrestaShop with eBay they remain the fastest way to understand what each screen is for.

  • Assign an eBay account to the module so listings can be created.
  • Build a selling list and export PrestaShop products to eBay.
  • Create eBay listings with variations from PrestaShop combinations.
  • Use flash actions for bulk listing operations at scale.
  • Import existing eBay listings back into the PrestaShop catalogue.
  • Keep marketplace category and attribute data current.

A note on age

Some of these videos date back to the module's early releases, and the eBay and PrestaShop interfaces have moved on since. The screens differ and the workflow does not. Account, profile, selling list, export and sync is still the sequence, and knowing that sequence makes the current interface obvious.

For a current PrestaShop setup, use these as background and the PrestaShop integration page for what is supported today, including Amazon and Etsy alongside eBay.

Bulk operations still matter

The flash actions video is worth watching even if you never touch PrestaShop. It sends four hundred products to eBay and shows how long that takes, which answers "can this handle my catalogue?" better than any specification.

Bulk behaviour separates channel tools from each other. Listing ten products proves nothing. What happens at four hundred, and whether the marketplace's own rate limits become the bottleneck, decides whether the tool works for you.

Frequently asked questions

PrestaShop eBay integration continues as part of Salestio, which now also covers Amazon and Etsy for PrestaShop stores. The PrestaShop integration page lists what is supported today.
The workflow does. The sequence of account, profile, selling list, export and synchronisation is unchanged, and the interfaces on screen look older than the ones you will use.
Yes. PrestaShop combinations map onto eBay's multi-variation listing format, so a size-and-colour product becomes one eBay listing with per-variation quantity rather than several separate listings.
Yes, and the import video covers it. That is the usual starting point for sellers who built their catalogue on eBay before opening a PrestaShop store.
