Ebay classified ads is changing: Users will soon have to adjust to fundamental changes, but can also look forward to new functions.

Dortmund-just buy a used bike at a bargain price or give away the old chest from the basement-eBay classified ads are considered one of the most popular advertising portals and, according to their own information, has around 30 million users in Germany. And that is exactly what has to be adjusted to a far-reaching change at the online marketplace.

eBay classifieds not to recognize: big changes are pending

It all started with the sale of the parent company Ebay Classified Group to the Norwegian company Adevinta in 2021. This laid the foundation stone that eBay classified ads is only indirectly connected to the US giant and auction portal eBay.

The clause is said to have been part of the deal that the online marketplace may only use the name Ebay three years after the takeover. So 2024 would be over. When looking for a new name, they asked themselves what ebay classified ads are still without ebay, said Paul Heimann, CEO of the portal. The answer is simple: classifieds.

So it is now clear: Ebay classifieds will soon lose the addition eBay and will then only be called classified ads. It is not yet known whether this will be the case before 2024 or only when the contractual period expires. On the part of the portal, it is only said that the changes will be made visible to the users by mid-2024 at the latest.

eBay classified ads plans to make big changes: Portal strokes eBay out of the name

Wait, we talk about changes? So are there any further news on classified ads? Here, too, the answer is simple: yes. In the course of the name change, the domain kleinercheBeige.de was secured. So there will soon be bargains and offers and will no longer be available at eBay-kleinzteben.de.

But that’s not all. The name change also comes a new logo. How it will look is still secret. The parent company may also have set specifications during the sale and, if necessary, set restrictions on the logo colors.

eBay classifieds: new name, new logo and new functions

Both the name and the logo change initially have no major influence on the users-it might even go by some. But not the other two innovations that the portal wants to implement shortly.

So the new function buy directly will soon be introduced. The same is already known from Vinted, digital marketplace for clothing: here too there is a buy directly button. This enables users to acquire a product directly without prior negotiations.

The step is also justified on ebay classified ads. Buy directly should accelerate the purchase or sale via the platform. Private sellers who set offers with a fixed price enable interested parties to buy direct purchase-without prior contact or lengthy negotiations, according to a current message from the portal.

The purchase is thus handled via the portal and the already introduced function pay safely. As soon as the money has been received by the provider, he will receive the address and the desired shipping options of the buyer and can send the goods.

Not only the trade should be simplified, Ebay also wants to improve classified ads in terms of security. Again and again users of the portal become victims of nasty fraud stitches and phishing attacks. In order to minimize the attacks, one now wants to introduce the so-called two-factor authentication-other portals such as Google or even banks such as ING have long since established this as solid constant in login.

It is not yet known how exactly the new and safe registration process will be designed on eBay classifieds. However, the introduction is planned in the next few weeks, according to the online portal. Users may be excited.
