Is Listybox Only for POD?
⚠️ Important: Listybox is designed only for POD (Print on Demand) products. It is not suitable for products you manufacture yourself (jewelry, handmade items, vintage, etc.).
All core Listybox features (Product Catalog, Creation Wizard, Print Provider integration, automatic order management) are optimized for the POD business model.
Features Available for Your Own Products
Feature | POD | Own Products | Description |
Magic Wand | ✓ | ✓ | SEO optimized listing content |
Etsy Integration | ✓ | ✓ | Listing push and sync |
ListyStyle | ✓ | ✓ | Create lifestyle images |
My Artworks | ✓ | ✓ | Image upload and management |
Trend Compass | ✓ | ✓ | Trend research |
