Our take

Founded in 1995 as an online auction platform primarily catering to collectibles, eBay quickly emerged as a pioneer in connecting buyers and sellers in the digital realm. This early success propelled eBay to become to globally recognized leader it is today.

In the present landscape, eBay competes with industry giants like Amazon within the C2C eCommerce sector. However, eBay distinguishes itself by fostering an environment where businesses can cultivate and promote their brands on the platform, offering a tailored, community-driven experience for both sellers and buyers. By championing small businesses, eBay attracts sellers and socially conscious consumers, positioning itself in stark contrast to Amazon's corporate image.

The rising consumer interest in sustainability has presented economic opportunities for eBay, particularly as younger demographics gravitate toward purchasing pre-owned items. in response, eBay has directed its marketing efforts toward Gen Z customers and formed partnerships with cultural phenomena like Love Island, further solidifying its appeal among contemporary audiences.
