Blocking Feature - important information

The feature is available for Amazon and eBay in your Webinterpret Dashboard.

Please note, this feature is not the same as the Blacklisting Tool, this is for individual (or bulk) item blocking, not for category or brand control.

It allows you to:

  1. Prevent selected items to be listed on selected markets (the ones that are not listed yet)
  2. End selected items on selected markets (the ones that are already listed)
  3. Unblock items (only the ones that were blocked, NOT blacklisted):
  • items blocked from listing can be unblocked and eligible for listing again
  • if an already ended item is unblocked it will be eligible for listing and can be listed again

Other important points:

  1. Items can be blocked also after applying some filters, for example filter all items below 5 Euro and block them.
  2. Blocked items should be ended (if previously listed) within an hour starting from the moment you block the item.
  3. The Blacklisted tab will show all blocked and blacklisted items, but only Blocked items can be Unblocked.
