Selling again after many years

[price_fox]

Hi,

I was selling years ago and want to start again. I created a listing however I am not sure I did it right. It looks like the way you get paid is quite different. I have looked at some of the documentation however I am confused on what I need to do. Do I need to give my bank account ( I used to use PayPal) and if so is that done under the area called “payouts”? Also, I did not provide a social security number, is that something I need to do now to sell on eBay?

thanks in advance.

Yes, things have changed greatly in the last few years.  eBay no longer uses PayPal as a payment processor and handles all aspects of payments.  You must enter a checking account that must be verified in order to receive payouts of your funds.  The name on the checking account must match exactly with the name on the eBay account or it cannot be verified.  Also, due to IRS regulations you must provide your SSN before eBay can send you any payout.
