The biggest seller event of the year is almost here! We’d like to share some information and tips to help you prepare and make the most of your experience at eBay Open.
Build your profile
We recommend creating your profile within the virtual platform prior to the event. Customize it by adding a headline, a photo, and information about your business. To get started—click on the link in your confirmation email and then head to the profile icon in the top right corner of the platform.
Plan your schedule
We’ve got a packed agenda featuring three half-days of fundamental and advanced training sessions, category breakouts, executive keynotes, seller-led sessions, networking, and more. You can build your custom agenda by browsing the event schedule and clicking the “Add to my agenda” button, for any session that you’d like to attend.
Earn swag
This year at eBay Open, we’re gamifying swag. Attend sessions, visit booths, and engage on our virtual platform to earn points and rank higher up on the leaderboard. The more you're involved, the more credits you can earn to put towards swag.
