Schedule your listings

The moment a listing appears matters on Vinted: a listing published when nobody is looking slides down the feed before it has been seen. That does not mean you have to be in front of your screen at that moment.

Scheduling separates two things that publishing straight away lumps together: the preparation work, which you do when you have the time, and going live, which happens at the time you have chosen.

Scheduled publishing is available from the Pro plan upwards. On the Free and Starter plans, publishing stays immediate.

Not to be confused with recurring automatic reposting, which is reserved for the Business plan: that one brings a listing that is already live back to the top, at regular intervals. It is described in Repost your listings.

Everything happens from the “Schedule” screen.

1. Click “+ Add”. The “Schedule a publish” window opens.
2. Choose the item. The search field saves you scrolling through the whole list.
3. Choose the mode: “Publish” makes the listing live, “Draft” creates a draft on your Vinted account at the set time.
4. Set the date and time. Shortcuts save you typing for the most common cases.
5. Confirm with “Schedule”.

The date must be in the future: the screen rejects a time that has already passed rather than publishing straight away without telling you.

Select several items and schedule them in one go. You then only set the “First publish”: the following ones are spread out over time automatically, rather than all arriving in the same second.

At the end, the screen tells you how many items were scheduled and how many were skipped. An item is skipped when it cannot be published as it stands, because it lacks a piece of information Vinted requires: go back to it in Review and correct a listing.

This is the point that catches people out, and it follows from how Pikmatic works: publishing goes out from your browser, not from our servers. At the set time, your listing enters the queue, and it is sent as soon as Chrome is open with the extension active.

As long as a publish has not gone out, it has the status “Scheduled” and two actions: “Change time” and “Cancel scheduled publish”.

While it is being sent, the status changes to “In progress” and the time can no longer be changed. Cancelling at that point would make no sense: the listing is already being posted on Vinted.

The “Schedule” screen brings together scheduled publishes and upcoming reposts. Each row shows the item, the planned date and the status.

Dates coming up soon are shown in words rather than as a full date, so you can see at a glance what goes out today and what goes out tomorrow.
