Sellers required bank info/authorizations

[ben710]

We have been informed that we must provide

bank account information in order to continue

selling on e-Bay.  We are also required to permit

the company to debit that account for fees due. 

I have never allowed anyone to directly debit my

checking account, and don't want to start now. 

Can I use a credit card account instead?

[tdumonde2014]

No. A checking account is required.

It's NOT the SELLER who requires your bank information.  It's eBay and their payment portal.

The seller does not get your bank info.

Many sellers, to comply with this, have just opened a separate checking account for their eBay receipts and many banks facilitate doing this on line.
