UK seller moved to the US. Need to add american bank account.

Question

So as the title says I have recently moved to the USA. Im trying to update my payout information to an American bank account but it keeps redirecting me back to the GB site and then its looking for a GB bank account. There must be a workaround for this, does anyone know?

@jenni_talia Seller accounts can no longer be moved between countries. You will need to register a new eBay account on ebay.com with your US address, then link your US checking account.

Are you registered in the USA?

Some things that may help with linking or editing your bank account for Managed Payments:

Go to https://www.ebay.com/sh/fin and click on edit your payout method. Click on the "+" Add payment option. Select the bank and click continue. Add the new bank, which will overwrite the old bank information.

Instead of selecting your bank from the pull down menu, scroll all the way to the end and click on "My bank is not on the list" to enter the information manually.

Make sure you are using your bank's preferred ACH routing number for online deposits, as it often is different than the one preceding your account number on your checks.

Make sure your name is exactly the same on your ebay account as it is on your bank account. Change the ebay name if needed, you can change it back later.

Some Credit Union accounts have a problem as does some Bank of America accounts, but usually it is the routing number that is the problem. Call your bank and ask which one to use for ebay.
