How does MarketplaceIQ check eBay sold prices?
You photograph an item. MarketplaceIQ identifies it using three independent recognition engines that cross-check each other, then fetches real eBay sold-listings data and shows you the median, average, high, and low sold prices, plus how fast that item sells.
Is MarketplaceIQ free?
Yes. The free tier includes 15 scans per month with full pricing data and platform-specific reseller tips. Plus is $7.99/month for 75 scans, and Pro is $16.99/month for unlimited scans plus label recognition, price tracking, and a profit calculator.
Do I need a credit card to start?
No. Every new account gets a 14-day Pro trial with no credit card required. After the trial, your account reverts to Free unless you upgrade.
What kinds of items can I scan?
Anything secondhand. Resellers use MarketplaceIQ at flea markets, garage sales, estate sales, and thrift stores to scan electronics, collectibles, tools, kitchenware, vintage clothing, books, toys, sporting goods, and more.
Where can I sell items I find?
MarketplaceIQ pulls real sold data from eBay and Poshmark — the two platforms with the deepest transaction history — so you know what items have actually sold for and where to re-list them for the most return.
Is MarketplaceIQ a mobile app?
MarketplaceIQ is a web app that works on any phone or computer with a camera. You can install it as a Progressive Web App for one-tap access on iOS and Android. Native iOS and Android apps are planned for a future release.
How accurate is the pricing data?
Pricing comes from real eBay sold-listings data — actual completed sales, not asking prices. You see the median, average, high, low, and how fast items sell, so you can buy with confidence.
