# How to List Your First Product as a Qyvea Vendor

Your first listing teaches you the process. Choose a product you know well and that sells often.

**Quick answer:** Open your vendor dashboard, add a product, choose the category, give a clear name with model number, set your price and units in stock, add photos and submit. Qyvea reviews every new product before it goes live.

## Choose the product

Pick something you stock in depth and that sells often, such as a popular camera, a switch or a power supply.

## Fill in the details

Category from the list Qyvea buys. A clear name with brand and model. Your price. Units in stock. Short, honest specifications.

## Add photos

Upload real photos. See photos that sell .

## Submit and wait

Qyvea reviews new products. Anything on the prohibited list is blocked automatically; read what you cannot sell .

## A worked example

Suppose you stock a 16-port PoE switch. A weak listing would say switch for cameras. A strong listing names the brand and model, says 16 ports with the PoE budget in watts, notes the box contents, shows the price and units in stock, and includes photos of the front, ports and label. The strong listing is easier to approve and easier to match to a request.

## After you submit

Check back on your dashboard. If the product is approved, it will start to appear in matching requests. If it is declined, read the reason, correct the details and resubmit. Do not simply resubmit unchanged. Then list your next product using what you learned.

## Choosing the right category

Pick the category that a buyer would browse, not the one that is easiest for you. A PoE switch belongs under networking, not accessories. A fingerprint terminal belongs under biometrics or access control according to its main use. A wrong category makes your listing harder to match and more likely to be declined.

## Price your first listing carefully

Work out your landed cost and use the payout calculator before you set a price. A first listing priced far above the market will never match requests. One priced below cost will win and hurt. Aim for a fair price with a margin you can accept, then adjust after you see how requests respond.

## A typical scenario

A supplier lists a 16-port PoE switch with the brand, model, port count, price and 12 units in stock, plus three photos. Illustrative example based on common cases, not a named vendor.

## Common mistakes

Vague names like switch good quality. Wrong category. Overstating stock.

## Quick checklist

Pick the product. Write a clear name. Set price and stock. Add photos. Submit.
