Jamaicans shop online more than ever — mostly on foreign sites. Here is where the buyers are, and where a local seller can actually get listed.
Quick answer: For local sellers, EzyCart JM is the marketplace built for Jamaican payments and Knutsford delivery — free to list, a Google page per product. Facebook Marketplace works for pickup. Amazon and eBay are where Jamaicans buy from abroad, not where local sellers list. If you run your own store, list on EzyCart JM as well: the marketplace tags those orders and sends you the buyer.
The marketplaces
- EzyCart JM — Jamaican-run, free listing, small commission on marketplace orders only, receipt-upload payments, Knutsford shipping, category and niche guides, monthly seller report.
- Facebook Marketplace — huge local audience, cash at pickup, no product pages on Google, no payment flow.
- Amazon / eBay — Jamaicans buy here through shipping companies; selling from Jamaica is impractical for most.
- Local classifieds — cars, property, used goods; weak for new products.
Be everywhere without extra work
Ezy Cart stores are listed on EzyCart JM automatically; marketplace orders are tagged "from EzyCart JM" in your dashboard, and the "Also on EzyCart JM" badge gives you a second Google page and a backlink. Featured placement is the Sell Everywhere plan.
