A Bump refreshes your listing by updating its posting time to the moment the Bump is applied.
Since listings are ranked in search results based on how recently they were posted, this means your item will appear higher—especially when buyers sort by “Recent.”
This increased visibility helps your item get noticed by more potential buyers, leading to a higher chance of sales.
Want to track the impact? Use Listing Insights to see how your listing performs before and after applying a Bump.
Our data shows that a Bump reaches up to 90% more buyers and prompts up to 40% more chats, more than doubling your chances of a sale.
There are different options that you can choose from, depending on how quickly you’d like to make a sale.
Smart Bump automatically refreshes your listings multiple times a day to stay near the top, without any manual action. More eyes, less effort.
To save time and plan in advance, you can customise your Bumps by choosing specific days and frequency of Bumps.
Smart Bump keeps your listing near the top of search results automatically, within your set budget. It’s ideal for sellers who want consistent visibility without manual effort.
Your listing is only bumped when it drops below its optimal position—helping you get the most exposure for your money. Bumps are spaced out and paused between 2AM–6AM to maximise efficiency.
Customise Bumps lets you schedule Bumps in advance—choose the days, times, and frequency that suit you. Save time and keep your listings visible with minimal effort.
Step 1: Click “Choose Bumps” on the Promote page and then click “Customise your Bumps”

*Each Bump will launch at the same time as the time-stamp of your purchase.
