Folder Lister is built for eBay-only sellers who want to import their InkFrog CSV directly, keep their photos local, and carry on listing in batches. No export? Your live listings are still on eBay, and Folder Lister reads them from there. If you sell across several marketplaces or relied on InkFrog’s template designer, the comparison below points you somewhere else — honestly.
Got your CSV out? Import it into Folder Lister and carry on

Migration
Rebuilding after InkFrog (quick overview)
1Start from your CSV export if you saved one before May 31, 2026. No export? Skip to step 2 — your active listings are still on eBay and Folder Lister reads them from there.
2Install Folder Lister on your desktop and sign in with your eBay account.
3Open Manage Listings. With a CSV: Import draft / CSV and pick your file. Without one: let it load your active eBay listings, select what you need and press Add selected. Either way the items land in the bucket with their data attached.
4Review or bulk-edit in the web editor: prices, descriptions, item specifics, all in batch.
5Publish. Folder Lister sends each draft to eBay through the eBay API.
What gets carried over from your CSV: SKU, title, category ID, description (HTML), quantity, price, sale price, image URLs, item specifics (Brand, Material, Country of Origin, etc.), variation groups (Parent SKU + Variation Group), shipping/payment/return profile names, location.
Variation listings are detected automatically. External image URLs are kept as-is — you don’t have to rehost anything.
Used by real InkFrog migrants
Built around the way collection sellers actually work
“I uploaded about 113 listings in my first 2 hours with Folder Lister, while still learning the software and only using a small part of the features. I never managed that many in one day before.”
— Sven Masch, eBay shop Fotohistorie· moved from InkFrog
After the migration
A folder-based way to list new stock
Once your existing catalogue is on eBay, the next step is faster listing of new items. Folder Lister works well if your stock already lives in folders on your computer — collectibles, vintage photographs, badges, coins, cards, postcards, books, parts.
Drop a folder of photos in, the app reads them as draft items, and you can use AI image analysis and short voice notes to fill in the details that aren’t visible. Every suggestion is reviewable before it lands on the listing — you stay in control.
For sellers with structured stock (repeat categories, recurring item specifics) the classic title-code workflow can prepare around 100 listings with 200 images in roughly 9 minutes. The AI route adds review, useful when each item is different.
You need cross-channel inventory sync (Amazon, Etsy, Shopify).
You want a cloud dashboard so a team can edit live listings together.
You used InkFrog mainly for HTML template design.
It is the right tool if…
You sell mainly on eBay.
You want to stop fighting your inventory tool — keep your photos local, get listings up fast.
You want AI assistance only where you choose to use it, with a review step before anything is applied.
FAQ
Can I import my InkFrog CSV directly into Folder Lister?
Yes. Folder Lister reads InkFrog CSV exports: SKU, title, category, price, quantity, item specifics, image URLs and variation groups. Drop the file in, review the items, publish to eBay.
How do I re-post InkFrog listings to eBay using Folder Lister?
With a CSV export: open Folder Lister, click Import draft / CSV, pick the file. Without one: open Manage Listings, let your active eBay listings load, and use Add selected. Adjust in the web editor and publish.
Has InkFrog shut down?
Yes. InkFrog announced on May 14, 2026 that it would close, and shut down on June 1, 2026. CSV export ran until May 31, 2026. Missed it? Your active listings are still on eBay, so they can be pulled from there.
What is the best InkFrog alternative for eBay-only sellers?
If you sell mainly on eBay and want a folder-based workflow, Folder Lister is a practical fit. For full multi-channel sync, look at a broader cloud platform.
Can Folder Lister import my InkFrog account?
No one-click account migration. The CSV export gives Folder Lister everything it needs to take over the eBay listing workflow.
Does Folder Lister replace InkFrog templates?
Folder Lister is not a template designer. The focus is on draft creation, image handling and item specifics, not HTML template design.
Does Folder Lister require external image hosting?
No. Images upload directly to eBay during draft creation. External image URLs from your CSV are also supported, so you don’t have to rehost anything.
Is Folder Lister free?
There is a free plan at $0: full app functionality, one license, 400 image uploads and 50 AI tokens per month, no card needed. Pro is $25/month and Extreme is $45/month for more accounts, uploads and AI.
InkFrog is gone — your listings are not
You can be back to listing in an afternoon — with or without that export.
Drop your CSV into Folder Lister, or let it read your active eBay listings, and continue from where InkFrog left off.
