ISLANDHUB HOW-TO GUIDE

Create a listing

Choose manual entry, AI, or a link import, then prepare your listing for buyers.

Start at Sell. Have your photos, an accurate description, your price, and your preferred handover method ready.

1Choose how to start

Choose Best when
Enter details yourself You want to fill in each field step by step.
Describe with AI You want help turning your answers into a draft.
Import from a link You already have an item page on another website.
Bulk Import You have several items in a spreadsheet. See the bulk import guide.

2Prepare the listing

Entering details yourself: Choose the item type, then follow the steps for listing details, photos, category, and any item-specific information. Use Next to move forward and Back to review earlier details.

Using AI: Describe what you are selling and answer the assistant’s questions. Include the condition, brand or model, and any faults. If asked to choose a category, pick the closest match. Review the draft carefully, then add photos and finish the price, stock, payment, and delivery steps.

Importing a link: Paste the address of a single item or product page. A search-results page or store homepage is not suitable. Start the import, wait for the draft, and check the imported text, photos, category, and price. Some websites block imports; try another item link or use manual entry if that happens.

AI and imported descriptions may need corrections. Remove claims that are not true of your item and add anything the draft missed.

3Set the price and stock

Enter your price in KYD. Use the free-item or quote option only when it applies; quotations are for services. If offers are welcome, enable the negotiable option where shown.

For stock, One of a kind is for a single item. Multiple available keeps the listing available after sales, so keep its availability up to date. If you use variants, check each size or colour option, quantity, and price before continuing.

4Choose payment and handover

Choose the payment option shown for your listing. Online selling may require a bank account for payouts. Choose only delivery or pickup options you can provide. Complete package details and the pickup address when requested.

See store and delivery setup for delivery settings, or fulfilling sales for what happens after an order arrives.

5Review and publish

Check the title, photos, description, condition, category, price, stock, and delivery choices. Follow the save and publishing steps, and review any plan price or conditions before confirming.

A saved draft is not a live listing. Open your listings, check Not published if needed, and finish the publishing action when ready.

If you get stuck

  • Next is unavailable: Complete the required information on the current step and read any message beside the field.
  • AI needs more information: Give a clearer description or choose the requested category.
  • Import failed: Use a single item URL or switch to manual entry.
  • Delivery needs an address: Add or correct the pickup address and map location.
  • Listing is not visible: Check its status under Not published or All before creating another copy.
