Promote Plus is a paid subscription that allows you to endlessly promote your items at the top of the feed to attract more buyers and sell faster.
Promote Plus services

Make your item twice as likely to sell. Promoted items are twice as likely to sell because they get more exposure at the top of the feed. More exposure helps attract more potential buyers.

-
Switch the promotion to other items. Want to change out the item you’re promoting? No problem. You can switch the promotion to any of your active items whenever you want.

Signing up
You can sign up for Promote Plus in our mobile app. If you're trying it for the first time, you'll enjoy a 3-day free trial period. Please note, we only allow 1 free trial per app store account.
To sign up for a Promote Plus subscription:
- Open the OfferUp app and log in to your account.
- Tap My Listings.
- Locate the item listing you want to promote, then tap Sell 2x Faster.
- On the pop-up, select Promote Plus, then tap Start 3-Day Free Trial.

How it works
Your promoted item will appear with a Promoted icon in featured spots on OfferUp, including the home feed, category feed, and in related searches. Your item will also show a Promoted label in My Listings so you know what item you’re promoting at all times.
Don’t worry if you don’t see your item at the top of the feed immediately. Promoted spots are shared between sellers. Items rotate among the featured positions so all sellers get fair exposure.
Additionally, you may not see your promoted item in your own feed at all since you’re not paying to promote it to yourself. But potential buyers will see your item in their feed. To check how many buyers are viewing your item in real-time, use the Item Performance Dashboard.
Switch out promoted items
You can switch out the item you’re promoting anytime for any other item in your for sale list.
To switch a promoted item:
- Open the OfferUp app and log in to your account.
- Tap My Listings.
- Locate the item listing you want to start promoting, then tap Promote.
- Tap Use Promote Plus.
- On the Swap Promotion pop-up, tap Promote.
