How to Relist Ads on Wallapop: Manual vs Automatic

What Does Relisting an Ad Mean?

On Wallapop, the most recent ads appear first in search results. Over time, your listing drops in position and receives fewer views.

Relisting means discarding the current ad and creating an identical new one. From Wallapop's perspective, it is a brand-new listing, so it shows up at the top.

📊 The impact of relisting:

An ad in position 50 might get 5–10 views/day. The same ad in the top positions can receive 50–100 views/day.

When Should You Relist?

  • When views drop: A sign that you have lost positions
  • Periodically: Every 2–5 days depending on the category
  • When you change the price: Take the opportunity to relist
  • If you stop receiving messages: Your ad is probably buried far down

Recommended frequency by category:

  • Electronics: Every 1–2 days (high competition)
  • Clothing: Every 2–3 days
  • Furniture: Every 4–5 days
  • Vehicles: Every 5–7 days

Relisting Manually

The manual process requires several steps:

  1. Save the details: Before discarding, note down the title, description and price
  2. Download the photos: Save them to your phone or computer
  3. Discard the ad: Go to "My products" → Discard
  4. Create a new ad: Upload the photos and fill in everything again

⚠️ Downsides of the manual method:

  • Takes 5–10 minutes per ad
  • You have to do them one by one
  • Easy to forget a detail
  • You lose the favourites the ad had accumulated
  • You have to remember to do it regularly

Frequently Asked Questions

Is relisting the same as reposting?

Yes, they are synonymous. Both refer to removing an ad and creating a new one in order to appear at the top of search results again.

Does Wallapop penalise you for relisting too often?

There is no official penalty, but it is not advisable to relist the same item more than 2–3 times per day. Once a day or every 2–3 days is the typical approach.

Do I lose stats when I relist?

Yes, the views and favourites from the previous ad are lost. However, the benefit of appearing at the top more than makes up for that loss.
