What fits on Macy's
Macy's carries a department store range. Since opening its marketplace in 2022 it has added categories well beyond fashion, and product data has to be complete for every one of them.
What gets checked before you publish
Listings with missing attributes, unclear condition or a category outside your agreement are held back. So are items over 150 lbs and shipments that need scheduled delivery, until approved.
Questions sellers ask about Macy's.
What does selling on Macy's cost?
Macy's publishes no seller rate card. Commission is agreed per category in your seller contract, and public write ups contradict each other on the percentages, so we quote no figure here. We check your actual terms against your margin before anything goes live. e-tailize comes on top: Toolkit from €229 a month, Expansion from €349, Takeover €1,500 plus a revenue share.
Do I need a UPC to sell on Macy's?
Yes. Every item needs a GS1 certified UPC, plus complete attributes, sizes, variants and images. In the e-tailize PIM you manage those in one place, so your catalogue passes the department store checks in one go.
Do I need a warehouse in the United States?
Yes, you ship from a warehouse in the United States. Orders have to leave within 48 business hours with valid tracking, through carriers Macy's approves such as UPS, FedEx, USPS and DHL. e-tailize routes the orders and pushes tracking back automatically.
How do returns work on Macy's?
Marketplace items carry a 30 day return window and come back to you, and returns have to be processed within two business days of arrival. Because orders, tracking and returns run through one e-tailize screen, that stays workable at volume.
What does Macy's expect from a seller?
At least 95% of orders delivered on time, customer questions answered within 24 hours, and listings that stay complete and accurate. Reliable stock sync and fast order routing keep those numbers where they need to be, which is exactly what the software does.
