Introducing VeROmatic!

VeRO is one of the biggest factors holding back eBay dropshippers. After over a month of development, we've launched a new tool called VeROmatic, which uses proprietary rules and machine learning to prevent you from listing items that put you at a big risk of a VeRO strike.

De-risk your listings with VeROmatic:


Enable VeROmatic!
When you log in to PriceYak, check the VeROmatic box on your listings settings page:
We highly recommend VeROmatic! We have plans to add even more sophisticated rules to the system, and as long as you have it enabled the new rules will automatically help filter out risky new listings.

You can see which of your existing listings we think is at risk of a VeRO claim on our new VeRO risk page:

If equations are easier for you:

Not only do VeRO strikes come out of nowhere and threaten your eBay store, but they also restrict many large dropshippers from listing as many items as they'd like. We can think of this as an equation:
max_listings = max_monthly_strikes / monthly_vero_strikes_per_listing
max_listings - Maximum number of listings you can have in one eBay store
max_monthly_strikes - The maximum number of VeRO strikes you're okay with getting per month (a guess, based on what level you think eBay triggers account suspension)
monthly_vero_strikes_per_listing - The average number of VeRO strikes a listing will get in a month. E.g. if this is 0.01, then about 1% of your listings get a VeRO strike each month.

Our goal with VeROmatic is to decrease monthly_vero_strikes_per_listing, thus letting you maintain a higher number of listings in each eBay store and increase sales!
