    Developer account autodenied?
                     

    I know I am going to take a hit because this isn't supposed to be asked here probably, but I feel I have been auto denied for the Developer program, and I have submitted the appeal in the FAQ but it seems like nothing is happening. How do I ensure, or is it even possible, to get a human to talk to me and look at why I would like a Developer account?

    Was I supposed to apply for the Developer program using my ebay seller account?

    @developer-support@ebay.com I am experiencing the same issue, we are a top rated seller using our same eBay account email when signing up for the developer program. We have seemingly been auto denied as well, I submitted an appeal within the FAQ but also received an automated email stating "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."

    TCG Exchange LLC is a trading-card retailer (Pokémon, MTG, Sports etc.) selling on eBay under our own seller account ebay.com/str/tcgexchangellc . We're building an internal tool to manage our own inventory and listings — scan/identify/price cards, create fixed-price and auction listings, and reconcile orders. We need the Sell Inventory, Account, Fulfillment, and Taxonomy APIs, plus the Trading API for auctions. We'll respect rate limits and eBay policies, as well as pay any related fees we incur for usage and we'll test in Sandbox before production.

    @developer-support@ebay.com I am experiencing the same issue with my developer account framedexdev.

    My application appears to have been automatically denied, and I have already submitted an appeal through the FAQ process. Unfortunately, I have not received any further update or had the opportunity for a manual review.

    Could you please take a look at the framedexdev developer account and let me know whether it can be manually reviewed or if any additional information is required from my side?

    Thank you very much for your help.
