Promoting Your Sellers' Listings with Magic Comments

Magic Comments is one of the easiest ways to drive more visibility—and sales—to your marketplace. While sellers can use it to promote their own listings on Instagram, if you're a marketplace owner, you can also use it to promote your sellers’ listings on your socials. (You can, of course, use it to share your own listings as well!)

This tool helps bring new eyes to your marketplace, boosts seller success, and gives you even more ways to support and engage your community.
