How can I link my checking account. Payment options only lets me add a credit card.

Hi, I am a first-time seller.  Before I list my item I want to link my checking account in order to receive payment for the sale. The payment options link only allows for Credit or Debit cards. Is there a recommended tutorial for selling on ebay so I can learn how to get payed for the items? Thanks

@dihay1856Follow this link https://www.ebay.com/help/selling/getting-paid/registering-seller?id=4792 and make sure you have provided all the necessary information.  This link will take you to the bank account details. https://www.ebay.com/help/fees-billing/sell-account/updating-bank-account-details?id=4796 . They will send a few small transactions to test the linked account so you will see transaction for .03 or .11 on your checking account.

They need you to link a checking account for payouts. You need a credit card for a backup method for seller fees and refunds that exceed your payout or if you already spent the money.

Hello.  This link you provided instructs me to go to Payments in My eBay, however, when I hover over My eBay, there isn't a payments option.  Am I missing something?  I've followed the links and the only option I get is to add a debit / credit card.  Is that a necessary first step in linking a checking account?
