At a glance
Depop Removed Listings (24h) is the alert that fires when Depop takes down any of your listings in the last 24 hours. Removals usually mean a policy or content flag: a prohibited item, a brand or counterfeit issue, a banned keyword, or a photo that breaches guidelines. Even one removal is worth investigating, because a spike can signal a pattern that risks the whole shop’s standing if it continues.
Calculation
The card counts listings removed by Depop within a trailing 24-hour window and lists the affected items. Vortex IQ reads listing status changes from the Depop integration; the removal reasons surfaced depend on what Depop exposes for each item.Worked example
A representative reading of Depop Removed Listings (24h) for a typical branded-resale shop on Depop. On 21 Jun 26 the alert jumped from zero to four removals in one afternoon. Vortex Mind grouped them and found all four shared a brand name in the title that had been flagged for authenticity. Rather than relist blindly, the seller revised the descriptions to remove the disputed claim and added proof-of-purchase photos before relisting. No further removals followed and account standing was unaffected. To review what was taken down, ask Ask Viq for listings removed by Depop in the last day with their reasons.Sibling cards merchants should reference together
