Hi,
I have plan to advertise products on ebay.com (USA) as I see this has more customer views and a wider audience. And I have in fact sold many things before on ebay.com. But since Paypal is no longer the preferred medium for seller to receive payment and pay ebay fee due to ebay changing their policy, I found myself struggling to setup ads for my products. I have to create an account with Payoneer which I only heard of just yesterday.
So for someone who is in a country where ebay has no base, how do I sell products to the wider market? Do I need a USA bank account or does Payoneer accept bank account from where I am based?
Thanks in advance.

Canadian here and unfamiliar with Payoneer, except that it is recommended for SriLankan sellers,who surged here over the winter when the SL economy went blooie.
But certainly non-US sellers can sell on dotCOM.
On the bright side, it is somewhat easier to achieve Global Top Rated Seller status and the small perks that gives, than it is to become a US-based Top Rated Seller.

Yes, in fact I believe that you have to provide a bank account in your own country when you register the Payoneer account.
There is a lot of information here, which is intended for sellers from outside the USA who are selling on eBay.com.

Hi guys,
Thank you for all the prompt responses. I managed to register with Payoneer today and will start looking at posting some item for sales. I still don't quite understand how this thing works but they do have my bank's detail in their database so that is a good start.
Thank you very much for the info.
