15k monthly threshold trigger Adyen
 

I have read this on the forum before, but never seen a direct thread for it.

Does anyone here have experience with this, and managing (1) account north $15k+ sales monthly without issues, or did you get more security checks?

My current account I have kept around $8k-12k sales monthly, at most $14k, and do not plan on passing $15k if I do, it will be in 2026.

Haha, I wouldn't know, I'm doing good to bring in $200 a week on egay, sales have almost dropped to zero. Etsy is blowing egay out of the water currently...

you can check their documentation about merchant thresholds , it is rules of visa and mastercard to force additional verification for each merchant moving to a higher threshold

Re: 15k monthly threshold trigger Adyen
 

if they receive payments with visa and mastercard on their own or through marketplaces they are a merchant. there is no way around this as all processors have agreements with credit card companies

Re: 15k monthly threshold trigger Adyen
 

Have you observed any difference after crossing 15k, over a period of time?

You are actually the one I thought of when I made this post because I've seen you mention it before.

True story mate haha. What is happening with sales?

Re: 15k monthly threshold trigger Adyen
 

I do not have accounts doing 15K monthly as this is way too much to run on one account but thresholds exist , with quantity of annual transactions for sure , with turnover most likely

Re: 15k monthly threshold trigger Adyen
 

Definitely so - merchant account in effect with checks and balances all done for security measure

Re: 15k monthly threshold trigger Adyen
 

$15k/month is $500 a day,this is not a big deal for a brick and mortar retail store,say a restaurant or even fast food.or a supermarket.
I just came back from shopping,one supermarket has 2 lb and up live lobster in tank,selling for $9.99/lb,someone bought 4.

Back in 2017-2019, at my peak, because I only used eBay during that time, I actually processed almost $60k during December holiday season. One month, $60k. I would never do that now. Now I look back at that and realize how reckless I was. Even 2021 I was pushing $40k a month, and then wondered why I faced issues.

On 01/01/2018 out of the blue I got a suspension, which was manual review. I fixed it, but still. If they were doing that back then, with all the new tech out now, it would be so easy to pin point certain sellers like me for risk assessments.

Ever since I have kept my sales within $8-$12k per month, eBay has been a pleasure to sell on again.

Currently I have sold 750 items this year to date, smooth sailing so far.

Good,you should celebrate by eating lobsters !

Re: 15k monthly threshold trigger Adyen
 

You run that much through 1 ebay account no problem?

Re: 15k monthly threshold trigger Adyen
 

I did 30k last month, no issues

Re: 15k monthly threshold trigger Adyen
 

how long have you done this for and how old is your acc?

Re: 15k monthly threshold trigger Adyen
 

pushing 40K on ebay is an equivalent being a local politician who can fall if any dirt is found on them and made public

Re: 15k monthly threshold trigger Adyen
 

I have one account on ebay that does 15k+ regularly and I think (?) did 30-40 back during the holidays? Havent had any issues with verification or scrutiny / restrictions / request for info or anything like that

Re: 15k monthly threshold trigger Adyen
 

Wow, big numbers to be running on one account. I couldn't picture putting that many eggs into one basket, especially with eBay.

Re: 15k monthly threshold trigger Adyen
 

How many sale in total? My issue never get more than 200 sales a month , even price droped for products

Re: 15k monthly threshold trigger Adyen
 

Very nice - sounds like rock solid account - how many requests for verification? Or none this year?

Re: 15k monthly threshold trigger Adyen
 

It only started selling in august, my profile says its sold about 1.5k items since then

Re: 15k monthly threshold trigger Adyen
 

None so far, fingers crossed. This account is definitely an anomaly, it was about 1-2 months of selling used crap I was trying to get rid of (gym clothes, hats, etc) then Sep/Oct it started selling $500 items right off the bat and in somewhat high volumes. Knock on wood it keeps up

Re: 15k monthly threshold trigger Adyen
 

I'm using a buying account thats aged about 6 years, with my selling activity starting in September. I've sold so far 1.2k.

Zero requests on the account for me. I have remained extremely disciplined with tracking my inventory because I sell on various markets, to prevent INRC. Since 2020, pretty much all my accounts got suspended because of this.

Honestly feels so good to have an account almost a year of activity. Have had to start, and stop so many times. But, all that taught me so many things. I feel like I know eBay much more than most people who I talk to on the phone, so I rarely call.

Re: 15k monthly threshold trigger Adyen
 

Aged about 6 years and then selling - that's a key move.

I don't follow that phone statement though - you have ppl you used to talk to on the phone about eb?

Re: 15k monthly threshold trigger Adyen
 

I'm saying I find zero reason to call eBay anymore because I almost know the script they're going to tell me better than the agent. I used to call a lot to try and resolve feedback, or returns request. Now, I just offer free 30 day returns, if a customer leaves negative feedback it will automatically be removed which fixes both problems. I've also sold on eBay for all of my adult life.

I find selling eBay now much more enjoyable than 2018.

Re: 15k monthly threshold trigger Adyen
 

I have reached $15k without any issues so far, but I plan to reach $20k.

Re: 15k monthly threshold trigger Adyen
 

the topic is ebay not a supermarket

Re: 15k monthly threshold trigger Adyen
 

I'm going to try and do $14k this month, I'll probably test 15k-20k during the holiday season. My account will have seasoned a full year, hopefully should be fine.

If I could get my account back to pushing 20k a month, thats all I ever would want from eBay. Then with other marketplaces and my own website I can push 50k a month, and lifes amazing. I have no desire pushing beyond 30k+ again, even if I can, the risk outweighs the plus to me.

For the average person 15k a month is a lot, some of us here are just used to being successful.

Re: 15k monthly threshold trigger Adyen
 

Ebay is in some way a supermarket,you can find food,kitchen appliances.
But I have not seen any lobster.

Morning chuckles - lobster obsession :lol:
