| | | masterostealth | 05-29-2019 10:25 PM | Why bother attaching a PayPal? What are the downsides to not having a PayPal on your stealth eBay, and just allowing eBay to process your payments other then the obvious potential for loss of sales due to lack of payment options? |

| eman350 | 05-29-2019 10:48 PM | Re: Why bother attaching a PayPal? Paypal you can get your funds much faster. I transfer to my debit card and get it in minutes! Ebays bank transfer can take 3-4 business day. |

| masterostealth | 05-29-2019 11:47 PM | Re: Why bother attaching a PayPal? You can remove your PayPal from eBay completely, and have eBay process your payments. Don't just comment if you don't even know this basic information. Your payments are not processed by PayPal, but a 3rd party, you can google it if you want specifics. The only time paypal processes is if you elect them to. |

If you don’t know your own basics nor have the decency to be polite, don’t be here.
I suggest you tread carefully. You have 1 chance with me. |
| walkingupwards | 05-30-2019 04:47 AM | Re: Why bother attaching a PayPal? There is a seller in my category on eBay.de who only accepts bank transfers. The guy is selling a lot with no problem at all, he is even saving a ton on PayPal fees.
I think if a buyer has enough interest in your item, they will buy it even if you don't offer PayPal. Nobody would prefer to buy a specific item just because paying it is a bit easier. |

In some countries it's common to pay using bank transfers. On the USA eBay site tho, how can you even list something without using PayPal as an option? I once tried that and got errors when creating my listing saying "you must select PayPal as a payment option" or similar. |

Not at all! You can ask customers to pay via wire transfers and Germans actually have no problem at all doing that :brushteeth: |

To answer your question OP, nobody does it because they didn’t ****ing know. And the people that do know, realize that the drop off in sales and delay in payment isn’t really worth it. But since nobody on this forum is educated on the topic I doubt you’ll get a response to the stealth aspect or funds holding... etc. |
| james_112233 | 06-01-2019 02:24 AM | Re: Why bother attaching a PayPal? So you guys are telling me on eBay UK for example if I refuse to accept Paypal my customers can still pay me ? into what account exactly ? I don't have an e-wallet with ebay that I know of.
When I buy via a stealth ebay account, I know I can pay using my credit card without going to paypal, but I thought the sellers PAYPAL still processes that payment. Ebay just collects my credit card details.
I think Ayden (ebays payment processor that you may be referring too) has only been rolled out in the USA atm. |

Just go edit one of your listings, and remove the option for PayPal. “Add offline payment methods”, if boxes comes up for Amex, mc, visa, and it lets you save your listing... then you know it works. |

Good luck in finding a solution, dont bother reporting back when you find it. :pop2: | Lmao, just because your ****hole country doesn’t have the same payment options as mine (it probably does you’re just too dumb to figure it out) doesn’t make me a troll. |

I have tried to remove paypal, it wont let me, so I repeat, paypal is mandatory in the UK. Fact. | Okay? Nobody ****ing challenged that, I told you this is the US eBay section and your ****ty non US country doesn’t matter.
Still not convinced you even did it right. |

Try learning about how the forum operates.
One thing, you midget overloaded with testosterone jock, we do not need your desperate for attention cussing.
Shove your head where there is no light and fecking go away.

I'll stick to ebay provided facts thank you. | Lmfao it’s on eBay.uks website. Look at their ToS https://www.ebay.co.uk/help/selling/...t-paid?id=4106
“We also consider credit and debit cards to be a safe electronic payment method. Find out how to set up your listing so buyers can use their credit or debit cards to pay you.
Accepting other payment methods
You can also accept cheques and money orders, cash on delivery, payment on pickup, or bank transfers. Learn how to ensure your buyers have all the information they need to pay using these methods.”
“
Credit and debit cards are a safe and efficient way to accept payments on eBay. You can choose to accept card payments directly or through PayPal.
“
“
What you need in order to accept credit and debit cards
You'll need both an internet merchant account and a payment gateway account to accept credit and debit card payments.
An internet merchant account is a merchant bank account that allows businesses to accept debit or credit card payments over the internet
A payment gateway account is a service that sends card transactions for processing through a secure connection
“
And I’m the troll
HAHHAHAHA |
