How do I change 1 hour autopay
Summary: 4560 is frustrated with an automatic payment feature that processes payments within one hour after winning multiple auctions from a seller, impacting their ability to get discounts on combined shipping. eburtonlab and jacbarcollectibles explained that the seller controls the autopay and combined shipping options. They noted that if a seller officially offers combined shipping, the payment period can be extended up to seven days, but this is dependent on the seller's settings.
Is there a way to change my payment option to 4 days instead of 1 hour? I've been very frustrated
with this. I'll win multi auctions from seller then it automatically pay seller within 1 hr. I always get discounts on combined
shipping. But with 1 hr autopy the seller has to refund me part of shipping cost. If I could change it to
payment in 4 days that would give seller time to sent invoice with discount on shipping.
Thanks and can someone please help !!

In addition to what @jacbarcollectibles has provided, if you see you have to provide a payment method BEFORE you bid on auctions or participate in the Offer process you can message the Seller and ask them if they will be willing to turn Auto-pay off. Some Sellers may not even know it is ON or that the setting even exists. When that feature was rolled out to Sellers eBay did NOT send notification of it.

Mentor1 month agoWith the autopay for auctions you get one hour before the payment is automatically taken from your payment account. The only exception is if the seller officially offer combined shipping (not just mentions it is available). If the seller offers combined shipping you would have the option to extend the payment requirement for up to seven days. This option will only appear if the seller allows combined shipping. Just remember that the payment for all items won will be takes at the end of the original seven days no matter when the other items were won. The autopay feature is set by sellers and only they can remove it.
