Drive traffic to your listings

Grow your reach

Increase views, chats and sales
Here’s a snapshot of our most popular Ads, and why you should be using them:
Bump
A Bump instantly launches your listing to the top of the marketplace and is the easiest way to reach new groups of buyers. It can be used as a one-off or be repeated over three days.
Spotlight
A Spotlight pins your listing to the top of its category and across relevant search results. Choose your target audience to show your product to those who are likely to buy it. Pay only when buyers click.
Shoutout
Shoutout helps build brand love and boosts awareness of your entire product range. The reviews and “stars” on your profile also increase trust in you and your brand.

Listing on Carousell is free, and we do not charge registration fees or commissions. Our Ads are a smart and easy investment that help grow your business quickly, and can be bought using Carousell Coins. These can be purchased in bulk at a discount.

When should I buy?
When you have one or two particular listings you want to sell quickly, Bumps help boost their visibility
When you have a listing with multiple quantities, Spotlight provides a constant stream of visibility and sales
When you have a large number of listings, Shoutout helps highlight your credibility as a seller by showcasing your strong ratings and reviews. These help to increase sales in the long run.
