What to know before you connect

Inventory limit

Matching eBay and TikTok Shop comes first

We line the eBay and TikTok Shop catalogues up by SKU, and hand you whatever we could not match. Clicking Start Syncing aligns matched inventory from your selected source location.

Manual control

Listings do not publish to eBay or TikTok Shop on their own

Copying a listing from eBay to TikTok Shop (or the other way) always waits for you to look at it. Stock is the only thing that moves on its own, and only once you have turned it on.

Marketplace to marketplace

Neither one can fulfil the other’s orders

Two marketplaces, and no fulfilment relationship between them. That is their rule, not a gap in ours.

People connecting a shop to a marketplace often expect the marketplace to ship for them. This pair is two marketplaces, so there is nothing to arrange in that direction. eBay cannot be told to fulfil a TikTok Shop order, and TikTok Shop cannot be told to fulfil an eBay one. Neither platform offers it to the other, which means picking and posting stays with you whichever side the sale came from.

What is left is the part that matters anyway: one stock figure across both. Items match by SKU, and a sale on either marketplace lowers the other, so you are not trying to keep two sets of listings honest by hand. That is the whole job on this pair, and it is worth being clear that it is the whole job rather than implying more.

Being two marketplaces has one practical consequence beyond fulfilment. Neither side is the natural home for your catalogue, so decisions about naming and structure belong in the middle rather than on the platform you happen to prefer. If you have been treating one of them as the master copy and the other as a mirror, this is the point to stop doing that.

Timing on eBay

eBay does not announce a sale, so we ask

Stock and orders both come off a check every couple of minutes on the eBay side.

eBay does not tell us when something sells. We check it every couple of minutes for both stock and orders, which is fine for most catalogues and worth knowing on anything that moves quickly. If the last unit of a fast line is live on both marketplaces, there is a short window where each still shows it as available. A small buffer on those lines is the usual fix.

SKU length is not the constraint here that it is elsewhere. Both platforms take 50 characters, so eBay’s limit is the one quoted and the two sides are level. Fifty is comfortable for most naming schemes, but the truncation behaviour is the same as everywhere: a longer SKU gets shortened on the way out and then stops matching, with no error to point at it.

So the check before you connect is short. Confirm nothing runs past 50 characters, then accept that fulfilment is yours on both sides and that eBay-side changes arrive on a timer. There is no third surprise waiting on this pair, which is not something we can say about every combination we support. It is a genuinely simple pair to run.

Questions people ask about this pair

How do I connect eBay to TikTok Shop?

You sign in to eBay and grant QuickSync access to the selling account. You approve QuickSync in TikTok Shop Seller Center for the shop you want connected. Then match products by SKU, choose which shop holds the true count on day one and turn the sync on. Keep SKUs within 50 characters, eBay’s limit.

Can I sync inventory between eBay and TikTok Shop?

Yes. Items match by SKU and a sale on one marketplace lowers stock on the other. Both platforms take 50 characters of SKU, so length is rarely the problem here.

Can TikTok Shop or eBay fulfil each other’s orders?

No. Both are marketplaces, and neither offers fulfilment to the other, so you pick and post every order yourself whichever side it came from. That is a limit of the two platforms rather than something a sync tool can add. What we keep in step is the stock figure across both.

Do I have to re-list my eBay products on TikTok Shop?

No. We match your existing eBay and TikTok Shop listings by SKU, and hand you a short list of whatever we could not match. You can also copy a listing from one side to the other if you want it in both places; that step always waits for you.

Can I charge a different price on TikTok Shop?

Yes. Set a rule once for TikTok Shop: a percentage, a fixed uplift, or a price you type yourself. We apply it whenever the price changes, and nothing forces eBay and TikTok Shop to the same number.

Does the tracking number go back to both shops?

Yes. When you add a tracking number to an order, we send it back to whichever of eBay or TikTok Shop the order came from, and the buyer gets the shop’s normal notification.

Can I create an order on TikTok Shop from a sale on eBay?

No. eBay and TikTok Shop hand orders out and do not accept orders created elsewhere. We pull both into one packing list so you still work from one place; each order stays on the channel it came from.

What happens if a buyer cancels or I refund them on eBay or TikTok Shop?

A refund alone does not restock an item. When the originating platform reports a stock increase, QuickSync propagates the updated quantity between eBay and TikTok Shop.

Which plan do I need for eBay and TikTok Shop?

Lite covers eBay and TikTok Shop. Lite is $19 a month for two shops and holds 1,000 items, with up to eight connected integrations. You would move up a plan for catalogue size, and your bill goes up by another $19 if you connect a third shop.
