The 2026 Dropshipping Setup From Jamaica

📅 September 2026 ⏱️ 6 min read 📍 Mandeville, Jamaica

The setup used to take a month of workarounds. It is now an afternoon. Here is the exact stack.

Quick answer: 1) Ezy Cart store on your domain. 2) Import: paste eBay links or search by keyword with filters; products arrive as drafts with photos and variations. 3) Pricing rules: multiplier or markup, shipping in, duty in, round-up step; the live calculator shows the shelf price; re-price the whole catalogue in one click when the rate moves. 4) Checkout: Scotiabank or Fygaro card, bank transfer with receipt upload, COD capped. 5) Order flow: paid → you order from the supplier → "ships in X weeks" message → arrives → Knutsford with a receipt photo → review request.

Step 1 — The store

Your domain, Ezy Cart, the phone app. Set delivery zones by parish and a pickup option.

Step 2 — Import the catalogue

Up to 20 links at a time, or keyword search filtered by region, condition and price. Approve drafts in batches; fix titles to the way Jamaicans search.

Step 3 — Pricing rules

Cost × 1.9, shipping included, duty estimate included, round to J$X99. Prices you set by hand are respected when you re-price.

Step 4 — Payments

Card for the impatient, transfer with receipt upload for most, COD for first-timers. Money first, then the supplier order.

Step 5 — Delivery and messaging

"Ships in 2–4 weeks" on the product page and in the confirmation. Status messages at order, at supplier dispatch, at Knutsford — with the receipt photo.

Step 6 — SEO from day one

Every product page is a search result: title, price in text, honest description, delivery time. The next post in the series covers it.

Frequently asked

Do I need an eBay seller account?

No — the importer reads public listings; you buy from the supplier when a customer pays.

What happens when the exchange rate moves?

Update the rate in the rules and re-price the catalogue in one click.

Can I take US cards?

Yes — Scotiabank and Fygaro hosted checkout accept international cards.
