The Quiksel extension

On a laptop, it fills marketplace listing forms straight from your finished Quiksel listings — title, description and price typed into the shop's own page in a tab you can watch. You review, add photos and press publish.

Download the extension

Works in Chrome, Edge, Brave and Arc on a laptop or desktop. Phones can't run desktop extensions — there, every listing is still written out ready to copy and paste.

Install it — about 60 seconds

  1. Download the file above and unzip it. You get a folder called quiksel-extension. Keep the folder somewhere it can stay — the browser reads it from where it sits.
  2. Open chrome://extensions in your browser's address bar (edge://extensions on Edge).
  3. Switch on Developer mode — the toggle in the top corner.
  4. Press Load unpacked and choose the quiksel-extension folder.
  5. Log in at quiksel.co.uk in the same browser. The extension borrows that session on its own — there is no second password.

Then press the Q in your browser's toolbar: everything written and waiting is listed there, and Fill it in opens the shop's form and types your listing into it.

Already installed it, and Quiksel keeps asking you to?

Then the copy in your browser is older than 1.2. Before that version the extension had no way of telling the website it was there, so the website assumed the worst and went on asking. It is the same reason a Vinted or Facebook Marketplace listing would not fill: the code that drives those two arrived later.

An unpacked extension runs the folder it was loaded from and nothing else, so pressing reload reloads the same old files. Download the file above again, unzip it over the folder you loaded the first time, then press the reload arrow on chrome://extensions. Nothing needs removing, and you stay signed in.

What it does and does not do

Out of the box it stops at the publish button: it fills the form and you press publish yourself. There is one switch, Post it for me, off until you turn it on, and with it on the extension presses that shop's own publish button once, in the tab you are watching. There is also a switch that lets it open a background tab about every three hours to read your views and sales, which is also off until you turn it on.

It never sees a marketplace password, and the only thing it stores is your Quiksel sign-in and those two switches, on your own computer. Some crosslisters run bots on your logged-in account instead; that is the thing this deliberately is not.

If a form doesn't fill

Marketplaces redesign their pages now and then. When a field can't be found, the extension shows a copy button for it instead — nothing errors, you just paste that one by hand. If a whole site stops filling, tell support@quiksel.co.uk and it gets fixed.
