While listing, 'list item' button brings up 'ebay automatic payment method choice'

So I just worked on a variation listing, completed and clicked 'list item' at the bottom.  Instead of the item being listed (scheduled in this case), I got this screen:

 I already have this information filled out, as ebay has already previously charged me for shipping in my checking account.  I wasn't able to complete my listing without it, apparently, so I filled in my cc number, and got a pop up that I wasn't able to screen shot.  ( I took a picture, but it's too large to upload here) . The address was https://pmtapp.ebay/apm/sca?flowid=LONG LIST OF NUMBERS, which just said "Hmmm. We're having trouble finding that site.  If that address is correct, try again later, check your network connection, check your firewall.  I had no way out except to exit the pop up, but no other choice on the automatic payment method screen except back.  Well, I lost the listing (it's in drafts, but a very early pre variation one).  Very frustrating. 

 

Is this a new thing?  Is it a glitch?  Why on earth would ebay put this screen placement right after the 'list item' button BEFORE the item lists?  I have not reached my free listing limit, this was a free listing.  I work slow, so this caused me quite a bit of work.  Any advice?  TIA

You need to add a funding source to cover refunds and fee's that are not covered by the funds in your MP account.

In the Seller Hub, under Payments/Payout Settings, you can set up your funding source there.

Have A Great Day.

Thank you, I'll check that now.  I do think that's a ridiculous place and time to notify me of that.  I check Overview in Seller Hub quite often.  I redid the listing, and it didn't come up again, thank goodness.  Thank you for your help.

Interesting - this happened to me yesterday on creating a listing, which immediately closed (disappeared) after the pop-up  arrived. Fortunately there was a good draft saved. The advice to look under Payouts for the MP settings didn't work for me, as you can only change payout account info there, not MP. Am I overlooking something?

Try going to Accounts first.  Under Payment information click on Payments.
