Do all sellers with fewer than 100 feedbacks need to offer PayPal and no merchant account may be used as an alternative ? "Beginning in August 2007, eBay required listings in "Video Games" and "Health & Beauty" to accept its payment system PayPal and sellers could only accept PayPal for payments in the category "Video Games: Consoles".[33] Starting January 10, 2008, eBay said sellers can only accept PayPal as payment for the categories "Computing > Software", "Consumer Electronics > MP3 Players", "Wholesale & Job Lots > Mobile & Home Phones", and "Business, Office & Industrial > Industrial Supply / MRO".[34] eBay announced that starting in March 2008, eBay had added to this requirement that all sellers with fewer than 100 feedbacks must offer PayPal and no merchant account may be used as an alternative.[35][36] This is in addition to the requirement that all sellers from the United Kingdom have to offer PayPal.[37]
Further, and as noted below, it is a requirement to offer Paypal on all listings in Australia and the UK." |
