LINE Yahoo Corporation's flea market app, Yahoo! Flea Market, is launching a new initiative starting today. The program offers a 90-day waiver on sales commissions for users who sell three or more items within 30 days of their first listing.
In conjunction, the company is also rolling out a feature that allows users to display an official badge on their profile showing their transaction history from other flea market services (*1).
Yahoo! Flea Market has surpassed 30 million cumulative downloads (*2) and has approximately 10 million monthly active users (*3), continuing its growth. With an increasing number of new sellers joining, the company believes it is crucial to create an environment that encourages not only initial sales but also sustained selling activity. Feedback from users of other flea market services indicated hesitation to switch platforms due to the inability to leverage their accumulated transaction history.
In response to this, the new initiative targets users who meet certain conditions after their selling debut, promoting multiple sales to foster continuous listing activity. A parallel campaign will also offer limited-time PayPay Points for debuting sellers and meeting conditions. This allows new sellers to receive up to 1,100 yen worth of limited-time PayPay Points (*4) and, by making repeated sales, qualify for the 90-day commission-free period.
Furthermore, the new "Other Flea Market Experience Badge" visualizes a seller's track record from other platforms. This enables even first-time sellers on Yahoo! Flea Market to demonstrate their reliability, creating a more secure and trustworthy environment for buyers.
■ 90-Day Commission-Free Period for Selling Debut & Condition Achievement
If a user sells three or more items within 30 days of their first listing, the sales commission will be waived for the following 90 days for up to 50 items. After meeting the conditions, users can check the remaining duration and usage count on their My Page.
After the 90-day period expires or the 50-item limit is reached, the standard 5% sales commission (industry's lowest, *5) will apply.
■ Other Flea Market Experience Badge
This feature displays a user's transaction history from other flea market services as an official badge on their profile (*1). This helps establish credibility from the very first listing and provides peace of mind for buyers.
