How do i enable more payment settings than listed??

Hi Im new to ebay and this is my first time trying to sell. Whenever I go to my selling drafts and look at the payments all I see is payments managed by ebay which are checks, money orders, and cash on pickup. I dont know if thats normal but I dont want to wait for a money order or some check that will bounce. I want to add my bank account but there is no option. Its been incredibly difficult to get help on the website for some reason. Please help.

Hi @taco_1333 

 

I don’t where you’re looking at payment options … but that is NOT something a seller needs to be concerned about, since eBay accepts ONLY ONLINE payments like PayPal and credit cards (among others).

 

That said, there will be a hold on your payment funds by eBay, since you’re a new seller.

That can't be right. What category is the item in and what country is the seller in? on ebay.com mailed payments like checks and money orders are not allowed. 

If it's  pickup the seller must offer an electronic method to pay.

If you are selling as Local Pickup, you can accept payment however you want.

You are entitled to refuse anything but cash if you prefer.

You just mark it paid and the buyer takes it away.

 

If it's pickup the seller must offer an electronic method to pay.

Many sellers prefer to use Managed Payments even for Local Pickup.

The buyer pays before he gets to your place using any of the electronic payments allowed by eBay.

You get  QR code and when he arrives for pickup you confirm the transaction using the QR code.

 

There is no problem with accepting cash for Local Pickup.

The Buyer is the only one who is vulnerable when they use that method.

You only add your checking account so you can be paid from Ebay.

Ebay decides what payment options the buyers have.

Have a great day
