Meta is overhauling Facebook Marketplace with new collaborative tools, social features, an improved checkout experience, and Meta AI integrations, the company announced<\/a> Thursday.<\/p>\n

Marketplace is getting a new \u201ccollections\u201d feature that lets users create groups of listings and invite friends to join. Users can get started by saving a listing, starting a new collection, and then choosing whether to make it public or private. They can then add friends to their collection and share updates through Feed, Messenger, WhatsApp, and more. <\/p>\n

Meta\u2019s also testing collaborative buying, which means users can invite a friend to join their chat with a seller. The company says this makes it easier to coordinate pickup, negotiate prices, and get answers to questions.<\/p>\n

These new collaborative features could be useful in instances when a group of roommates is looking to furnish their new apartment or when someone wants to keep their partner in the loop when discussing potential purchases. <\/p>\n

While Meta says the changes announced on Thursday are designed to make Marketplace more useful, they also mark the company\u2019s ongoing efforts to bring Meta AI into all of its services<\/a> and products<\/a>. Additionally, by blending social, commerce, and AI, the company is looking to boost time spent on Marketplace while also enhancing its competitiveness against other e-commerce platforms.<\/p>\n

In terms of the Meta AI integrations, Meta is going to start using its AI tools to help buyers ask the right questions when making a purchase. Now, when users start a chat with a seller, they will see a \u201cSuggested questions to ask\u201d button. If they tap it, Meta AI will use the details from the listing and the conversation to suggest questions they might want to ask.<\/p>\n

Additionally, Meta is bringing AI insights to vehicle listings on Marketplace, noting that vehicles are among the top five searches for young adults. Now, when users view a vehicle listing, they\u2019ll see AI-generated insights that bring together key details like engine options, safety ratings, transmission type, seating and cargo capacity, reviews, and price information.<\/p>\n

Meta also announced that users can react and comment directly on listings. The company says this will help others learn about item quality and discover new finds. It\u2019ll be interesting to see how people react to this change, as Marketplace has had a simple design since its launch. Some might find the addition of reactions and comments as distracting, or even cluttering the service.<\/p>\n

Meta notes that if a user likes an item, Marketplace will learn what they\u2019re interested in and display more items aligned with their preferences.<\/p>\n

As part of its announcement, Meta said it began integrating eBay and Poshmark inventory into Marketplace earlier this year to give people more options when it comes to buying across categories like fashion and electronics.<\/p>\n

\u201cPartner listings are marked with an icon on the listing image, and are integrated throughout your Marketplace feed so you\u2019ll see them while you\u2019re browsing,\u201d Meta explained in a blog post<\/a>. \u201cYou can also see the listing and seller\u2019s information on the Marketplace product details page, and when you\u2019re ready to buy, you\u2019ll be taken to the partner\u2019s site for checkout.\u201d<\/p>\n

As for the improved checkout experience, buyers will now see total costs, including shipping and tax, upfront. They\u2019ll now also receive notifications as the status of their order changes. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Meta is overhauling Facebook Marketplace with new collaborative tools, social features, an improved checkout experience, and Meta AI…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":291345,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[45],"tags":[182,181,507,10414,20065,1282,74],"class_list":{"0":"post-291344","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-artificial-intelligence","8":"tag-ai","9":"tag-artificial-intelligence","10":"tag-artificialintelligence","11":"tag-facebook","12":"tag-facebook-marketplace","13":"tag-meta","14":"tag-technology"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/291344","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=291344"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/291344\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/291345"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=291344"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=291344"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=291344"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
