Meta to Test eBay Listings on Facebook Marketplace

Investing.com -- Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:META) announced on Wednesday that it will conduct a trial to allow some users in Germany, France, and the U.S. to view eBay listings on its Facebook Marketplace platform. This move comes in response to a decision by the European Union that found the connection between Meta's classified advertising service and its main social network weakens competition.

The trial will enable users to see eBay listings on Facebook Marketplace, with transactions completed through eBay. Meta suggests that this could be beneficial for users on both platforms. eBay sellers may gain more visibility among Facebook users, while Marketplace users will have access to a broader range of listings from eBay.
