# Create a listing: photos, pricing and auction settings

> Publish a Souqna listing in four steps: item details and photos, pricing as Buy Now or auction, delivery details, and a final review before it goes live.

The listing wizard in your seller workspace takes you through four steps: **Item**, **Pricing**, **Delivery** and **Review**. Click **New listing** on the Overview page to start. Your listing goes live as soon as you publish it.

## Step 1: Item

![Create a listing, Item step with title, description, category, gender, condition, size, brand and photos](https://mintcdn.com/souqna-leb/REwGJbB5E5_mwRwO/images/help/wizard-item.jpg?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=REwGJbB5E5_mwRwO\&q=85\&s=0ca7850ccd8a8d0c097cabbd3c1a29df)

| Field | Required | Notes |
| - | - | - |
| **Item title** | Yes | 3 to 200 characters. Include brand and item type. |
| **Description** | Yes | Describe condition, flaws, fit and measurements. |
| **Category** | Yes | Clothing, Bags, Accessories or Shoes, then a subcategory. |
| **Gender** | Yes | Men, Women or Unisex. |
| **Condition** | Yes | New, Like New, Very Good, Good or Fair. |
| **Size / dimensions** | Yes | Clothing size, shoe size or bag dimensions. |
| **Brand** | No | Pick from the list. |
| **Photos** | Yes | 1 to 10 photos. JPEG, PNG, WebP, HEIC or HEIF. Large photos are compressed for you. |

Turn on **Offer item verification** to let buyers pay to have the Souqna team check the item before delivery. Verified sales use the warehouse route and carry a commission. See [Earnings and fees](https://wiki.souqnaleb.com/sellers/earnings.md).

> [!TIP]
>
> Put your best photo first, use daylight, and photograph labels, soles, serial numbers and any flaws. Use the arrow on a photo to move it earlier.

## Step 2: Pricing

![Create a listing, Pricing step with selling format, Buy Now price and listing end date](https://mintcdn.com/souqna-leb/REwGJbB5E5_mwRwO/images/help/wizard-pricing.jpg?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=REwGJbB5E5_mwRwO\&q=85\&s=bbf4dd1bf907b2635f59757384b81079)

Choose a **Selling format**:

| Format | You set | Best for |
| - | - | - |
| **Buy Now** | A fixed **Buy Now price** | Items with a clear market price |
| **Auction** | A **Starting bid** | Rare or in-demand items |
| **Auction + Buy Now** | Both. The Buy Now price must be at least the starting bid. | Letting eager buyers skip the auction |

Set the **Listing end date**. It defaults to 7 days from now.

Open **Advanced auction settings** for:

* **Reserve price (optional):** the lowest price you'll accept. It must be at least the starting bid. If bidding doesn't reach it, the auction ends with no sale.
* **Extend auctions for last-minute bids:** on by default. A bid in the last 5 minutes adds 5 minutes, so buyers can't snipe.
* **Use custom bid increments:** set your own minimum raise for each price band.

## Step 3: Delivery

Enter the **parcel weight in kg** (optional, helps price shipping) and your **governorate**. You confirm the exact pickup address later, when you ship an order.

> [!TIP]
>
> Save time with **Selling tools → Listing presets**. A preset stores a reusable description, packaged weight and governorate. In the wizard, click **Apply description & delivery**.

## Step 4: Review and publish

Check everything, then click **Publish listing**. Click **Save draft** at any step to finish later; drafts appear under **Saved drafts** on your Listings page.

> [!WARNING]
>
> You can't publish while your selling is paused or restricted by strikes. See [Manage listings](https://wiki.souqnaleb.com/sellers/manage-listings.md) and [Account standing](https://wiki.souqnaleb.com/sellers/account-standing.md).
