about old accounts before 11/07

[kevinxu]

By January 2009 all payments will be integrated through EBAY Checkout


I wonder those old accounts before 11/07 have to fax merchant accounts docs to ebay?

I don't see why not...

Hi modee,mid-2009?but i heard its 01/09

so the accounts before 11/07 wont be gold in 2009?

[kevinxu]

oh sorry modee,the problem for me is i dont have a merchant account and i use googlecheckout and ccnow for the payment.Do you think i can still use them as before in 2009,dont need put a paypal account and just send invoices from googlecheckout or ccnow to buyers?

Then, will EBAY figure out that you are using a payment method account that does not match the EBAY account info?

It would be so like ebay to think that ALL of our business MUST be tied in with them. I sell through a variety of venues but use the same merchant account which is under my DBA. When I had to send the supporting docs to ebay I just blanked out the parts that gave specific reference to me or my address or phone numbers. Which I think is hysterical because how the hell do they know where that merch acct. came from without any names on it? And still, they approved it lickity-split.
So Modee, you think it will be more a matter of who you are using to checkout?
