How to Restore or Repost an Ad on Kijiji
You can only restore or repost ads that are still visible in your Kijiji account.
If your ad appears in your profile, you can republish it directly from the website or the Kijiji app.
Restore an Ad on Web
-
Sign in to your Kijiji account.
-
Select My Ads.
-
Locate the ad you want to repost.
-
Open the ad and select Repost or Publish Again (if available).
If the ad appears in your account, you can republish it without creating a new listing.
Restore an Ad in the Kijiji App
The Kijiji app allows you to restore certain inactive, expired, or sold ads, provided they are still visible in your account.
To restore an ad:
-
Open the Kijiji app.
-
Go to My Ads.
-
Locate the inactive, expired, or sold ad.
-
Select the ad.
-
Tap Restore.
Once restored, the ad will become active again.
Why Can’t I Restore My Ad?
You may be unable to restore an ad if:
-
The ad is no longer visible in your account.
-
The ad has been permanently removed.
-
The ad was deleted and is no longer available for recovery.
-
The ad no longer meets current posting requirements.
If an ad does not appear in My Ads, it cannot be restored and a new listing will need to be created.
