Yes, from a salesperson's own account, not the Business Page, since 2023. What Meta allows, what gets dealers restricted, how stores put a whole lot up.

> **Short answer:** Yes. A car dealership can post its inventory on Facebook Marketplace, and thousands do every day. Since January 30, 2023 the listings come from a salesperson's own Facebook account rather than the dealership's Business Page, one vehicle listing per car, under Meta's Commerce Policies. The Business Page and free dealer feeds are gone; paid Automotive Inventory Ads are Meta's only feed-based path. Everything a store needs to know follows: what is allowed, what gets listings and accounts restricted, and how dealerships get a whole lot up without putting the sales floor on one login.
## What changed in 2023, in one paragraph
Until early 2023 a dealership could list vehicles from its Facebook Business Page and, for a while, feed its inventory straight into Marketplace through a partner. Meta ended the partner feeds first and then, on January 30, 2023, the ability of Business Pages to create vehicle listings. Trade press covered the change and dealers on DealerRefresh traded notes on what broke. Nothing has reversed since. The result is the rule that shapes everything: an organic vehicle listing is created by a person, from that person's account, through the same form a private seller uses.
## What Meta allows
- Vehicle listings from a personal account, in the Vehicles category, with the year, make, model, mileage, price, condition and real photos of the car being sold.
- A salesperson listing the dealership's cars. Meta's Commerce Policies govern the listing's content, not the seller's employer.
- A price that matches what the car actually sells for, and a description that says what the car is. Dealer disclosures your state requires go in the description.
- Renewing a listing when Facebook offers it, editing the price, and marking the car sold when it goes.
## What gets a dealer's listings or account restricted
- Listing from a Business Page or a shared "dealership" account used by several people from several devices.
- Bursts: many listings or renewals within minutes. Sellers report this as the most common trigger, and Meta publishes no safe number.
- Deleting listings and reposting them to look fresh. The second copy is a new listing that goes through review again.
- One description pasted across the lot with the VIN swapped, prices that do not match the website, or photos that are not of the actual car.
- Posting from a datacenter address or a city the account has never been in, which is what dealers on DealerRefresh say to ask any vendor about.
## How dealerships actually do it
1. One salesperson, one account. Each rep lists from their own Facebook login on their own computer; the store's lot is split across the floor.
2. A steady batch at the same time each day. Five to ten cars an evening beats forty on a Monday morning; new accounts start at one or two.
3. A distinct description per car, the website price, and the state's dealer disclosures in the text.
4. Sold cars marked sold the day they go, prices edited when the website changes, renewals accepted instead of relists.
5. A tool or a routine that keeps all of that true across 40 to 400 cars, because nobody does it by hand past a dozen.
## Where TurboSell fits
TurboSell puts a dealership's whole inventory on Marketplace under each salesperson's own Facebook login, the only kind of account Meta lets list vehicles. It imports the lot from the dealer website or the listing sites the store already uses, can write a distinct description for every car, and posts to Marketplace, Business Pages, personal profiles and Facebook Groups, from the rep's browser as they work or overnight on a schedule, spread across the night and never in a burst. Prices follow the website and sold cars are marked sold on Facebook after each inventory refresh. Free for 5 cars live with no card; $39 a month for one salesperson, every car; $199 a month for every salesperson at the dealership. Get started for free.

## Questions
Q: Can a car dealership post on Facebook Marketplace?
A: Yes. A dealership's cars can be listed on Marketplace by a salesperson from their own Facebook account, one vehicle listing per car, following Meta's Commerce Policies. What a dealership cannot do since January 30, 2023 is list vehicles from its Business Page or push a dealer feed into Marketplace for free.

Q: Is it against Facebook's rules for a dealer to sell on Marketplace?
A: No. Meta's Commerce Policies allow vehicle listings and set the rules for them: accurate details, real photos of the actual car, a price, and the Vehicles category. The policies restrict what a listing contains, not who the seller works for.

Q: Why can't our dealership Facebook Page list cars anymore?
A: Meta ended vehicle listings from Business Pages on January 30, 2023 and had already shut off the partner inventory feeds. Since then, organic vehicle listings come from personal accounts; the only feed-based path is paid Automotive Inventory Ads.

Q: Should the whole sales team share one dealership Facebook account?
A: No. Facebook treats a personal account as one person; many people, devices and locations on one login is the pattern it restricts. One salesperson, one account, and each account's listing history stays clean.

Q: Does a dealer need a dealer license number on the listing?
A: Meta's vehicle form does not ask for one. Your state's advertising rules may require a dealer name or license number in dealer advertising; put it in the description if your state requires it, and keep the price and vehicle details exactly as they are on your website.

Q: How many cars can a dealership put on Marketplace?
A: Meta publishes no limit. Sellers report that an established account sustains roughly 3 to 10 vehicle posts a day, and a store spreads its lot across its salespeople's accounts at a steady pace. Our daily-limits guide has the detail.
