leboncoin pricing, use cases, and first steps

leboncoin is France’s major classified ads site: secondhand items, vehicles, real estate, jobs, vacation rentals, services. A business posts there with a Pro account, free to create and mandatory for professionals. AI helps in two places: it suggests a description and a price when an individual posts a listing, and a leboncoin app lets you search listings from ChatGPT.

leboncoin has a free plan. The recommended plan to start with: Pro account without a subscription, €0. Prices checked on October 3, 2026 on the vendor’s official page.

What leboncoin does

Who it’s for: retailers, tradespeople, and small businesses selling products or equipment, and teams hiring locally.

Post a Pro listing

You publish a listing with a title, a description, a price, a location, and photos. In the Maison (Home), Mode (Fashion), Multimédia (Electronics), Loisirs (Leisure), and Famille (Family) categories, up to 50 postings are free without a subscription. In the others, posting is paid or follows its own rate: the price is shown before you confirm.

A description and a price suggested by AI

When an individual posts a listing, leboncoin writes a description from the title and photos, and suggests a price based on similar listings. You fix whatever is off before publishing. The help for Pro postings doesn’t describe this feature; for real estate agencies, leboncoin announced automatic descriptions in 2025.

Secure payment and delivery

The buyer pays on leboncoin, and the money is held until they have received the item. Delivery is to the home or to a pickup point; handing over in person and pickup at a professional seller’s location are also possible.

leboncoin pricing

leboncoin doesn’t publish a price list for professionals: the amount depends on the category and is shown at the time of posting. The commission is calculated on the sale price, excluding shipping. Real Estate, Vehicles, Vacation Rentals, Jobs, Professional Equipment, Pets, and Services are not subject to commission.

PlanPriceWho it’s for
Pro account without a subscription Recommended to start€0A business that posts a few listings
Subscription plans (Agilité, industry packs)Custom pricingA shop, a car dealership, an agency, or a regular recruiter

What the free plan includes

Creating a Pro account is free. Without a subscription, up to 50 postings are free in the consumer goods categories (Home, Fashion, Electronics, Leisure, Family). Elsewhere, posting is paid or follows a category-specific rate. The price is always shown before you confirm.

Nova’s advice

Start with the free Pro account and a few listings: you’ll quickly see whether leboncoin brings you buyers. Only buy a promotion option for a listing that already has good photos and a fair price. Ask for a subscription quote the day the commission or the number of listings becomes a real expense.

Your data. leboncoin is a French site, based in Paris; your listings are public and the app collects data that is also used for advertising.

What it does less well

  • Prices for professionals aren’t published in advance: you have to go all the way through the posting flow, or ask for a quote, to find out the amount.
  • The AI-suggested description on individuals’ listings can’t be turned off, and it can get a detail wrong. Always review it before publishing.
Post your first Pro listingleboncoin
  1. Take four or five sharp photos of the item, from the front, from the side, and of any flaws.
  2. Log in to your Pro account and click “Déposer une annonce” (Post a listing).
  3. Choose the category carefully: the rules and the posting price depend on it.
  4. Fill in the title, description, price, and location, then add your photos. For the description, you can get help from an assistant with the prompt below.
  5. Look at the total amount shown before you confirm. The promotion options are optional.
  6. Confirm. You’ll find the listing and its numbers (views, favorites, messages) in your Pro account.

The prompt to copy

Write the text of a classified ad to sell a set of 6 used conference chairs. Condition: good, two scratched armrests. Dimensions: standard. Price: €180 for the set. Simple, precise tone, no exaggeration, 6 lines at most. End with the details for on-site pickup.
