A Grouped Product consists of Simple Products that are presented as a group united by a certain theme.
M2E Pro lists Magento Grouped Product as a Single Item on the Channel by default. To list the Grouped Product as a Multi-Variational one, configure it under System > Configuration > M2E Pro > General > Variational Product Settings:
- Product Set - a group of Products will be listed as a Set (Individual Item). Customers can purchase products only as a set. Read this article for details. Or watch this video to see how Product Sets work.
- Variations - a group of Products will be listed as a Variational Item. Customers can purchase each option of Variational Product separately.
Grouped Product Listed as Multi-Variational #
Let’s take a look at the example of a Grouped Product listed as a Multi-Variational one, which is a fitness equipment kit, and see how the Products in a Group are displayed:
- In Magento Inventory settings
- In the list of Magento Products, where ID 943 is a Parent Product, ID 944, ID 945 and ID 946 are Child Products
- In the M2E Pro Listing
✅ M2E Pro allows you to provide eBay Catalog Identifiers for each variation of your Grouped Product. You can do it via the Manage Variations option within the Listing.
- on eBay
⚠️ eBay only displays 30 of the 55 characters allowed in the drop-down field for Multi-Variation listings. So make sure to keep the titles of your Product variations short.

If you choose to list a Grouped Product as a Set, this is how it will look like:

If you are listing a Grouped Product as a Multi-Variational one, and the Ignore Variations option is enabled in Selling Policy, a Grouped Product will be listed as a Simple one, without variations.
In this case, the price of the cheapest Child Product and the sum of all Child Products’ quantities will be submitted to eBay.
