You need to create your first listing directly on eBay to get your account set up. Later you can push the listing from a third party site.
Complete these steps in this order.
a) Draft a listing on eBay, click submit or "list it". The system should guide you through setup. If not, follow these steps:
b) Verify/update/complete your Profile Registration: Name, address, phone number, identity information (profile) on your eBay Account: https://accountsettings.ebay.com/profile -- Use a Street Address, even if you don’t get mail there. -- Make sure to use your full legal name and that it matches your bank account.
Please check to see if you have BOTH a Checking account marked for "Used for payouts" and a credit/debit card. One of these (bank account or card) needs to be marked for "Preferred for selling costs"
TIP: Buyers pay by eBay "Managed Payments". eBay processes all the payments; they accept credit cards, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, etc. The buyer pays eBay by various methods, and eBay sends the money to you by a deposit to your Bank Checking Account.
You only need to register for eBay Managed Payments and eBay does the rest.
-- Drop shipping, where you fulfill orders directly from a wholesale supplier, is allowed on eBay.
However, listing an item on eBay and then purchasing the item from another retailer or marketplace that ships directly to your customer is NOT allowed on eBay.

I would not recommend doing that.
Setting up your account isn't complex but it involves your private data.
