accept credit card (and no paypal)
 

Hello,
since paypal closes all my accounts and keeps scaming me for money I wanted to accept credit card on ebay.com

there are 3 possible gateways which ebay accept

Payflow: company from paypal
Authorize.net: only for americans or canadians
cybersource.com: only from 3kk USD revenue yearly

does anyone have expierience for accepting ccs in ebay or is there a way to open an Authorize account as non american?

I do. It's a nightmare. You would probably be better off waiting until you can use eBay managed payments instead of trying to setup and attach a merchant account now.

I don't know the details of opening a merchant account as a non American but it may be possible if you get an ITIN from the IRS and use that in your application.

how long will it take until ebay adds them?

so it is impossible to buy an authorize account? i mean people are selling paypal but i never seen someone selling authorize

You don't need to buy an Authorize account...

They can't be purchased (without fraud involved) since they are registered to a business's tax ID.

Adyen (eBay's managed payments) is already available on a lot of USA accounts. By 2023 they're saying it will be the only option for payments. I can't really speculate when Adyen will be rolled out to each country, but it's coming.

so how can i activate adyen on a ebay account if you say it is available already

It's not an option unless ebay extends it to you.
