Paid promotion and Boost fees (optional)

Boost is the easiest way to get your listings seen by more buyers. When you boost a listing, it appears across more surfaces on Bob Shop, including the home page, category pages, search results, and paid promotions. This gives your listing greater visibility from the moment it goes live.

There are three tiers to choose from: Boost BASIC, Boost PLUS, and Boost PREMIUM. All three cover the same four surfaces; the difference lies in the level of prominence your listing receives.

Bob Shop also offers several paid promotion events where sellers can list their items, including Crazy Wednesday, Snap Friday, and Weekend Specials. Listing in these promotions appear both in their regular category positions and within the relevant promotion. Learn more about the benefits of Paid Promotions and Boost here.
