Using the new eBay International Shipping program with Business Policies

[brightlightbookseller]

So we're a medium to large seller (plenty of larger ones, but we're not tiny either), so we use Business Policies to manage our shipping settings, rather than picking them per listing.  When eBay launched the new International Shipping program, it sounded appealing since we already use the Global Shipping Program, but all the instructions are for sellers who use individual listing settings for shipping, and not Business Policies.  On the Policy settings for a Shipping Policy, we still only get the option for the Global Shipping Program, not the new International Shipping Program.  Are we able to switch, or are we at eBay's mercy waiting for them to enable that setting for Business Policies?

I found this out by trial and error. Only works International standard shipping meaning under a pound.

It's my understanding that you have to wait for ebay to switch you but you can "apply" to be switched sooner. I'm not sure if there is a link where you can do that or if you have to contact cs.

Thanks, I'll reach out to them!

I know this is marked already as Resolved, but wanted to add this about using the new eBay International Shipping when using business policies.

I got the email that I was in the program, but I didn't see the option to select it in my business policies under international shipping.

So I did some tests, and what worked for me was setting my business policy to "No international shipping"

When I updated my listings, they all now show eBay International Shipping when selecting a country outside the US.

TLDR: Remove International Shipping options in Business Policies. This will enable "eBay International Shipping" for your listings if you're in the program.

Thanks, I'll give that a shot!  I thought we got a message that we were in, which is what confused me.  If not, it's easy enough to re-enable what we currently have.
