To complete your eBay for Charity sale, you can have your donation collected automatically and forwarded on its due date, or make a one-time donation for any completed listing appearing on your Donation Due page, including an overdue donation. The automatic payment is drawn from your preferred donation payment method..
The one-time donation payment method:
Gets your donation to your selected charity as much as 22 days faster
Allows you to select your payment method
Note: You can make future donations to the same charity whether you use the automatic point-of-sale donation or the one-time donation.
Donations are due on the fourth Monday after your listing ends. If you haven't made a donation by its due date, it will be collected automatically by MissionFish, the charity selected by eBay to administer the eBay for Charity programme within 22 - 28 days after the listing ends on eBay.
If your item doesn't sell, no donation is due.
