Shipping policies and geography
Each item is imported from eBay with its shipping policy, which can be seen in the last column on the Items page. The shipping policy describes shipping geography, tariffs, and the return policy. eBaymag will automatically configure the shipping options for the cross listing.
Shipping Policy Detail:
eBaymag automatically retrieves details such as handling time, business days, costs, and additional charges from the shipping service, as well as excluded shipping locations from the shipping policy. Additionally, it extracts terms regarding allowed return periods and who bears the cost of return shipping from the return policy to formulate a comprehensive general policy.
Based on the shipping services you have provided, eBaymag categorizes and presents delivery options to the buyer on eBay listings as Economy, Standard, Expedited, or Express shipping.
For an example:
Seller's original US listing has both domestic and international shipping services - eBaymag will get working days and price from shipping services, then map the fixed shipping services from below shipping table and select the suitable(max shipping time and max price) shipping policy shipping to worldwide.

If you have made any changes to the original shipping policy after the items have been imported into eBaymag, eBaymag will not synchronize with the updated eBay shipping policy. To edit the shipping policies for international listings, you should manage them on eBaymag.
How to edit shipping policies in eBaymag
Navigate to "Shipping policies" page:
To edit an existing shipping policy, click the shipping policy and make the necessary changes.
Changes will be applied to the international listings that created by eBaymag, but the original listings will retain their existing policy.
How to create a new shipping policy in eBaymag
Click the "Create shipping policy" button.
Name your shipping policy and select the handling time: how many working days does it take you to ship your items after receiving the payment.
There are 3 pricing options available: "Free shipping worldwide", "Flat shipping worldwide" and "Сost varies by buyer location and shipping service".
1. Free shipping option raises your listings higher in the search results. To create a policy with free shipping worldwide, select a "Free shipping worldwide" pricing option.
2. To create a flat shipping policy select a pricing option "Flat: same cost worldwide, may vary by shipping service". Then fill in the information about your tariffs.
Each eBay site automatically determines the ways of delivery from these available tariffs and shows them to the buyer.
If you're offering a flat rate shipping cost, where all buyers pay the same amount, you can add a fixed amount for each additional item purchased. For example, if the shipping cost on the first item is $5 you could choose to charge just $2 in shipping for each additional purchase.
3. You can also create a shipping policy with different prices for different countries by selecting an option "Сost varies by buyer location and shipping services". Learn more about how to set it up
The last step of creating a shipping policy is to select the return options. Offering a minimum 30-day return policy helps you to qualify for Top Rated Seller Benefits.
How to assign the new shipping policy to your listings
To assign this new policy to existing listings, go back to the "Items" page, select all the items you want to assign a policy to and choose the new policy from the list.
Then click "Apply changes"
Pre-defined shipping policies
eBaymag has a list of pre-defined shipping policies you can use:
Free / 30 days — Free shipping worldwide up to 30 days without a return option.
