Getting your vehicles on CarMarket AU
There are three ways to list your dealership's inventory. Pick the one that matches how your stock is managed — you can always switch or combine methods later.
Stock Feed URL
Nightly auto-sync
Paste a URL that points to your inventory in JSON or CSV format. We fetch it every night and add, update, and mark sold vehicles automatically.
Best for
Most dealers — any DMS or exporter that can produce a public or auth-protected feed link.
How to set it up
- 1Ask your DMS / website provider for your stock feed URL (JSON or CSV)
- 2Go to Dashboard → Showroom → Stock Feed Settings
- 3Paste the URL, choose JSON or CSV, and add an auth header if your feed is protected
- 4Click Sync now to test, then leave it — nightly syncs keep you current
Pros
- Zero technical setup on your side — just a link
- Handles adds, updates, price changes and sold vehicles
- Works with any provider that can export a feed
Cons
- Updates appear the next day (not instant)
- Feed must be publicly reachable or use a static auth header
Push Webhook
Real-time (on demand)
Your DMS or exporter POSTs stock updates to a unique webhook URL the moment a vehicle is added, changed, or sold. Fastest option, but needs a tech-savvy exporter.
Best for
Dealers with an in-house DMS, a developer, or an exporter that supports outbound webhooks.
How to set it up
- 1Sign up and find your unique sync token in Dashboard → Showroom → Sync Webhook
- 2Give your DMS provider the webhook URL and your sync token
- 3They POST stock updates as vehicles change — listings update within seconds
Pros
- Inventory updates appear in seconds, not hours
- No polling — updates only when something actually changes
- Great for high-turnover dealerships
Cons
- Requires your DMS to actively send updates
- Needs developer or exporter support to set up
Manual Entry
Per listing
Use the same Sell My Car flow as private sellers. Best for dealers with a handful of vehicles or those testing the platform before connecting a feed.
Best for
Dealers with under ~10 vehicles, or anyone wanting to list a vehicle immediately while setting up a feed.
How to set it up
- 1Go to Sell My Car from the header
- 2Enter vehicle details, upload up to 20 photos, set your price
- 3Publish — the listing is live instantly
Pros
- Live immediately, no setup
- Full control over every field and photo
- Good fallback while a feed is being arranged
Cons
- Manual work for every vehicle
- Not practical above ~10–20 vehicles
