Making payments

You can make a payment or change your payment method at any time by going to the Seller Account section in My eBay. Learn more about making a one-time payment and updating your monthly automatic payments.

eBay offers four methods for you to pay your selling fees:

• PayPal (monthly)

• Direct Debit from your bank account (monthly and one-time payments)

• Credit card (monthly and one-time payments)

• Cheque or postal order (one-time payments)

Payment methods

Choose from a variety of methods to pay your seller’s fees.

• PayPal: PayPal is a safe, convenient way to automatically pay your eBay fees. When you sign up for monthly PayPal payments, your invoice amount will automatically be deducted from your PayPal account each month.

• Direct Debit: This is an easy option to make regular payments on your eBay account. Simply provide eBay with your Bank/Building Society account number and bank sort code, and eBay will automatically send a request to your Bank/Building Society to obtain authority to deduct your monthly invoice amount from your account.
  
  Please allow for 19 days for your bank account information to be approved and established for automatic monthly payments. The amount to be debited from your bank account will be your monthly invoice amount. This debit will occur within 7-10 days after the receipt of your invoice.

  Please note that all declined Direct Debit payments from your Bank are subject to a £5.00 administration fee.

• Credit card on file: You can place your credit card (Visa or MasterCard) on your eBay account for regular monthly payments. Each month eBay will automatically charge your invoice amount directly to your credit card on file. Your credit card will normally be charged 7-10 days after receipt of your invoice.

• Cheque and postal orders: After they are received, cheque and postal order payments take 7-10 business days to process and post to your account. Please remember that this does not include weekends and holidays.

  Note: When making payment by cheque or postal order, you must also submit a payment voucher with it and send it to the address on the voucher.
  To make a payment either go to the "Accounts" section on My eBay or to the Make a One Time Payment page.

How to Change your Payment Method on file
You change your recurring payment method on file at any time by going to the "Account" section in My eBay.

Your payment due date

You'll need to pay your invoice balance in full each month to keep your account current. If you don’t keep your account current, your account may be suspended for non-payment and you may be responsible for collection costs. The payment due date is determined by the date eBay generates your invoice (either the 15th of the month or the last day of the month). For information on payment requirements, late fees, and payment schedules, see Your Payment Due Date.

Trading Limit
It is eBay policy that you can only accrue fees up to £15.00 when you do not have an automatic payment method on file. We can, at our discretion, prevent you from listing more items when you exceed this limit. Your account will be reactivated when you clear the monies owed. No trading limit is in place if you have a credit card on file or a Direct Debit authorised. If your Direct Debit Mandate is not authorised yet (this may take up to 19 days from when you submit your bank account details), you are able to trade within the £15.00 trading limit.

Viewing your account activity

Using My eBay Views, you'll find two ways to view the activity (fees, payments, credits, etc.) on your seller's account:

• Account Status shows your current balance and a list of your account activities.

• Invoices shows your account activity as it has appeared in your monthly invoices. eBay will also send you monthly invoice notifications by email (if your balance was more than 1.00 during the month).

• You can also download the last four months of your invoice data to a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet or any application that supports CSV files by clicking the "Download" link displayed when you view your invoice.

• In addition, you can view the last 18 months of your invoice data as HTML files when you view your invoice.

Credits and refunds

You can receive credit on your account under certain conditions. Review Insertion Fee Credit Requirements for Relisted Items and Requesting Final Value Fee Credits for requirements.

If you have a credit balance with your account, you can request a refund. Learn more about Requesting a Refund.
