How do you track UPS payments?

[epsilon_publishing]

When I buy a UPS label, on Ebay, the page says that I won't be charged  (by Ebay) until the label is used. I assume it means when it is scanned?

I keep getting bills from UPS.

How do you track that the UPS label has been paid for?

Thanks for information.

You can enter the tracking number and see the progress the package is making. They don't tell you the  time they bill the shipping however.

I thought that Ebay pays UPS for the label, when I print the label.

Then Ebay bills me for the label in the monthly invoice.

Is this true?

I have a UPS account that is tied to eBay. I buy UPS shipping thru eBay and pay the bill thru my UPS account.

How do you know the UPS account number? Or, actually, how does EBay know the account number, so they can bill the correct account?

I signed up and Connected my UPS account to eBay. That was 4 years ago.  I will fish around and see if I can find the info on how to do it. I dont remember of hand. 

I can login to UPS also and create shipments from there. I know my account number. Also have a USPS account for emergencies and some personal shipments

I found this forum post from 2017.  Other posters may be along to add other information. I pay my UPS bill through a auto payment by credit card.  

For UPS, your account is linked to PayPal, not eBay. Only FedEx account numbers link to eBay now. Sign into your PayPal account and go to the shipping options. Once linked you will get the same PayPal discounts through eBay/PayPal or directly shipping from the UPS site.

Ebay pays for the label and you pay them back. 

*If you're on PayPal: They take the fund out of your paypal account immediately.

*If you're on managed payments: Sorry, i don't know.  I think you get billed for it every 3 days or every week depending on how your managed payments are set up.

I hope you check them every so often. I have had twice this past holiday season, UPS billing me for someone else's transaction. And one company was set for continued billing, to the wrong (my) account. Some slimy people out there, if they were aware of this and did nothing to fix it.  

I have had continual problems with UPS ever since I moved to a new address, from a neighboring street, and it seems only one of their databases knows my new address. Well, before that, when they returned  a package to my old, old, address, on the other side of the country. Then when they finally got it back here, refused to give it back to me it from the UPS center. I had to raise hell with the district management.
