Supported feed source
Post your Cars.com inventory to Facebook Marketplace
Short answer
Yes — Cars.com is a directly supported feed source. AutoLander reads your Cars.com inventory feed, builds a configurable queue of eligible Marketplace listings, refreshes prices, and reconciles sold units. It also upgrades listing assets with an AI Photo Studio, walkaround video and post-to-sale attribution. Plans from $39/mo.
Can AutoLander post my Cars.com inventory to Facebook Marketplace?
Yes. Cars.com is a directly supported feed source, so AutoLander can load your Cars.com inventory into a managed Marketplace workflow. AutoLander reads your Cars.com inventory feed — year, make, model, price, mileage, photos and descriptions — and prepares eligible listings, then keeps them current as your lot changes. Meta account eligibility and listing limits still apply.
Because AutoLander runs as a native desktop app on your own computer, it posts through your normal Facebook session instead of a shared cloud server or a browser extension.
What is Cars.com?
Cars.com is an automotive shopping marketplace whose dealer products publish full dealership inventory with pricing, photos, seller notes and vehicle status supplied by the dealer.
Cars.com-specific feed checks
Cars.com publishes concrete rules for price, availability and merchandising.
- Cars.com requires a real total vehicle list price and prohibits $0, “contact for price” and conditional pricing in dealer listings. Use the compliant source price you actually want syndicated. Read the vehicle-listing policy.
- Cars.com requires dealers to promptly remove sold, unavailable, reserved or pending vehicles from the listing feed. That status discipline is what lets AutoLander remove Marketplace posts reliably. Review the availability rule.
- Cars.com supports up to 99 photos for used vehicles and 32 for new vehicles. Choose and order the source photos deliberately before AutoLander processes them. See Cars.com merchandising guidance.
How Cars.com connects to AutoLander
Use the current Cars.com inventory source, but check it against Cars.com pricing and availability rules before you let the same data drive Marketplace posts.
- Clean the Cars.com inventory sourceVerify each vehicle has an actual all-in list price, current availability, accurate identifiers and the photo set you want buyers to see.
- Connect and sample the supported feedConnect the Cars.com inventory feed in AutoLander, then compare several VINs, prices and photo orders against your Cars.com inventory before enabling posting.
- It manages eligible listings and keeps them in syncAutoLander works through eligible vehicles with a configurable queue, refreshes listings as prices change, and removes sold units during reconciliation after your feed marks them gone. Meta account eligibility and listing limits still apply. See how the Facebook Marketplace inventory sync works.
What AutoLander adds on top of your Cars.com data
Cars.com tells AutoLander what is on the lot. AutoLander turns that raw data into high-performing Marketplace listings.
AI Photo Studio
Replaces messy lot backgrounds with clean showroom backdrops, so every listing looks like a professional shoot instead of a phone snap.
AI walkaround video
Generates a short walkaround video for each vehicle — Marketplace and buyers favor video over static photos.
Automatic sold-removal
When your Cars.com feed marks a unit sold, AutoLander removes the matching Marketplace listing during reconciliation, reducing stale-listing inquiries.
Post-to-sale attribution
Tracks which Marketplace posts led to actual vehicle sales — not just clicks, views or messages.
Frequently asked questions
Does AutoLander have a native Cars.com integration?
AutoLander does not need a separate plugin for Cars.com because Cars.com is a directly supported feed source. AutoLander reads your Cars.com inventory feed and loads those vehicles into its Marketplace workflow — there is no one-click "app store" button or separate plugin to install.
How does the Cars.com connection work?
AutoLander reads your Cars.com inventory feed directly. You point AutoLander at the feed, your vehicles load automatically, and AutoLander prepares eligible Marketplace listings and keeps them in sync as prices and inventory change. Meta’s account limits still apply. See the inventory-sync details.
Which Cars.com status changes matter to AutoLander?
Cars.com specifically calls out sold, unavailable, reserved and pending vehicles as statuses dealers must remove promptly from the listing feed. Keep those states accurate so AutoLander can remove matching Marketplace listings. See the official policy.
How much does it cost to post Cars.com inventory to Facebook Marketplace?
AutoLander publishes self-serve plans from $39/mo with 5 free posts to start and no credit card required. The same pricing applies however you connect — see all integration options on the Facebook Marketplace integrations page.
What if I use a different system than Cars.com?
