not able to add paypal acc to ebay listing
 

Is there any direct fix for the issue of ebay error " the email is not linked to paypal account"

I read a lot about this issue but could not find any clear solution. The email is indeed linked to paypal and activebut i don't know why ebay will not allow me to use it as payment method.

yes bro, just toggle off immediate payment
it will work after this

That is correct. However, I will open door for headache. Some buyers will click buy but they are not committed to pay immediately, so i will have sometimes to beg buyers to make a payment. I encountered that in the past, i had to open case against buyer for no payment. and after some days, i will be able to relist

so unticking is not reliable solution

This error had been solved for me and started again a few days ago, is it something that is happening to everyone or only to us? It is also not very feasible for me to do the listings without immediate payment.

I have the same problem. One new stealth did not contact paypal then I just waited one day and I was able to put up a listing, everything worked. Recently I made another account and after a day he did not contact. I do not link paypal and ebay, I just indicate the payment method in the listing

I think the issue affects newly created paypal accounts. It takes some time for eBay to recognize the email as linked to PP. But there is no specific time when it can be used. Sometimes it takes few hours... sometimes it takes days.

of course not feasible without immediate payment. because someone will click buy it but they may not pay immediately and you have to wait for them to pay

The problem is not in this, but in the fact that the system does not allow you to put up a listing without paypal mail. There are still problems, who has any changes in this situation?

If you untick the " require immediate payment" you can put any random email and it will work.

just toggle off immediate payment. I do this every time and maybe I get one dumb ass that doesnt pay immediately out of 300 sales. Shouldnt be a problem anyway if you have 10k listing credits like me

Thank you. It really works, I think your information is useful not only for me.
