Our accepted payments policy gives buyers and sellers on eBay convenient payment options. Sellers need to state in their listing specifically which payment methods they accept and only offer payment methods approved by eBay.
Make sure your listing follows these guidelines. If it doesn't, it may be removed, and you may be subject to a range of other actions, including limits of your buying and selling privileges and suspension of your account.
What are the guidelines?
Allowed
PayPal
ProPay
Skrill
Credit card or debit card processed through the seller's Internet merchant account
Payment upon pickup
Bill Me Later
Restricted
Bank-to-bank transfers (also known as bank wire transfers and bank cash transfers)
"Buyers may request to pay by check or money order."
There's only one exception: Sellers who offer payment upon pickup may include the following statement in their listings: "Contact me for payment methods to pay on pickup."
Why does eBay have this policy?
This policy helps to create a successful shopping and selling experience by encouraging online payment methods that are safe, easy to use, and offer strong protections for members.
