ProPay under real name linked to stealth EB account?
 

Hmmm, I could not find the answer somewhere.
I have an eb account under the name of my mother in law.
I would like to open a Propay account under my real name and my real business.
The names would be different but we have the same address.
Would that work?
EB account is past 2007.

Pr op ay does not share info with eb last I checked - wait for more folx to confirm.

Thanks for your quick reply.
Does eB need some paperwork or do I just have to sign up with Prpay and wait until they approve me?

Does somebody know?
I think I gonna try it later this weekend.
I will keep you updated.

Update.
I applied last night and then I had to fill out an extra form and send it per email.
They also requested a copy of my DL and a a copy of a voided check.
But I dont use checks at all, so I had to send a copy of my SSN.
It will take a few days to be approved or not.

Ok guys, here is my update.

After I provided all the documents per email Propay requested the user ID of epay.

My application was accepted one day later. :thumb:

I already listed some of my items with auctiva.

I only accept propay in my listings, I had a few orders the last 2 days and 3 still unpaid items.
I think thats the hardest part... to convince all the brain washed epayers to use something else than paypuke.

Exactly - convincing...

Sometimes it works, sometimes it does not.
Any tips? Do mention something in your listings?

Its integrated in eBay checkout so the buyers should only have to put in their credit card information on eBay which should not turn them off, it takes time but stick with it. I just stared using ProPay a few days ago after my merchant accounts closed due to far exceeding the gross amount of sales for the year which I do not see how that's a bad thing but their loss not mine.

Anyone ProPay was very easy to set up, I have received 3 payments of close to $500.00 total already, the costs are ok. Will keep you guys posted on how it goes further down the road.

It was also like that when I first started dealing with a merchant on eBay many years ago, do not put in anything like no Paypal in your listing. List on eBay not through Auctiva, Also put payment instructions that clearly state ProPay is the only form of payment, trusted payment processor etc...

This look like a good alternative to PP, I'll try this out when I make my second stealth ebay account.
