Another Developer Account Rejected
Summary: kwthrift shared their experience of initially being rejected but managed to get instant approval by using a specific link and explanation from a post in the discussion. This comment was part of a thread about a developer account rejection, where other participants also engaged.
I am trying to register for a developer account as I created a Sync tool that helps my business .
eBay API use cases:
- Sell Inventory API — create listings on eBay on behalf of authenticated users via OAuth
- Fulfillment API — monitor sales to auto-remove sold items from other platforms (prevents double-selling)
- Trading API — sync inventory and listing status
I keep getting auto denied and it says I dont qualify for an account but I do not understand why.
I have tried the appeal page/link on here and i get the following email after filing that:
We’re reaching out to provide an update on your eBay developer account activation. Following our review, we’re unable to approve activation at this time.
As part of eBay’s standard evaluation process, developer accounts are assessed against internal eligibility and risk controls. Based on this assessment, your request does not meet the criteria required for activation. These controls help protect our platform and community, and while we cannot share specific details of the evaluation, decisions are made in accordance with eBay’s policies.
You may consider reapplying at a later time.
Thank you for your understanding.
Regards,
eBay Developers Program
Is there someone that can help or tell me what I am doing wrong?

·2 weeks agoNot sure what the deal is. I get the rejection message still after using the link a few seconds later. Is there something you need to specifically tell them to get it approved.

·2 months agoThis link has a bot that auto rejects no matter what you fill in. I barely hit send and I had a response email rejecting me again. Would be impossible to even read the description let alone make a decision with how fast the email came. Is there anything else that can be done?

·3 months agoI'm having this exact issue as well. It's a bit frustrating as there's no space to add in context or info to the application, which makes it very hard to understand the basis for acceptance/rejection.
