"We do not support this bank. Please try a different bank account."
 

I have just tried adding a Revolut bank account to my ebay via the manual entry and I get the following red banner once I submit:

"We do not support this bank. Please try a different bank account."

does ebay not support revolut for payouts?

if not, can someone recommend me any app-based banks that I am able to register for easily that do work with ebay

Edit: does anyone know if Wise personal / and/or business works?

thanks

Welcome to the forum OP - all the best as you master stealth :thumb:


Few people spoke of Wise and Chime success. In what country are you?

Re: "We do not support this bank. Please try a different bank account."
 

im in the UK

Re: "We do not support this bank. Please try a different bank account."
 

Nath, put up your UK flag in your profile so we don't misguide you

Re: "We do not support this bank. Please try a different bank account."
 

ok done. I did post in the UK subforum though.

Re: "We do not support this bank. Please try a different bank account."
 

just use a bank available to uk residents only , revolut is not a bank and it is heavily abused and easily available to people from all over the world

Re: "We do not support this bank. Please try a different bank account."
 

doesn't really answer my question. which banks would you recommend?

is Monzo still working? Tide? any others that anyone has had any luck with.

I would prefer to stay away from the old fashioned high street banks.

Re: "We do not support this bank. Please try a different bank account."
 

you can take any bank that does not accept people from outside UK as customer , so take any bank and ask them if you can open an account as non-resident if they say no the bank will work on ebay

and it must be a bank , this means they must have a banking licence

Re: "We do not support this bank. Please try a different bank account."
 

Revolut doesn’t work as a bank it works as a VCC where you can pay fees and print postage labels through PayPal check out as a guest.

Best banks for eBay is savings accounts from the high street.

Santander, Halifax, bank of Scotland, Lloyds and TSB savers those banks are my favourite I’ve not had no issues receiving any payouts to my bank accounts.

Re: "We do not support this bank. Please try a different bank account."
 

I've heard Wise works. You can open a new account with them online easily. Have to verify with a passport selfie. They verified me within 2 minutes and bank was ready to go with a sort code, account number and IBAN.

Or you can Open a savings account with whoever you are with. You can do this in the banking app of most banks. Then you get a new Sort code and account number.

Re: "We do not support this bank. Please try a different bank account."
 

Can anyone confirm that Wise works?

Re: "We do not support this bank. Please try a different bank account."
 

Few posts around to search that discuss experience with Wise

Re: "We do not support this bank. Please try a different bank account."
 

Does anybody know if Pockit bank accounts work with ebay please?

Many thanks

Re: "We do not support this bank. Please try a different bank account."
 

wise , pockit etc. - all this may or may not work now but all these companies are not banks so that at some point they will be banned even if this has not happened yet

Re: "We do not support this bank. Please try a different bank account."
 

Wise works for payouts?

Re: "We do not support this bank. Please try a different bank account."
 

Oh Pockit - haven't heard that name tossed around in some time

Re: "We do not support this bank. Please try a different bank account."
 

Do you know if pockit works?

I am looking at Pockit, Tide, Monese. Does anyone know if any of these 3 work with ebay currently?

Re: "We do not support this bank. Please try a different bank account."
 

none of these are banks , even they work now you can be restricted because of them anytime

Re: "We do not support this bank. Please try a different bank account."
 

again, this doesn't really answer my question.

I just need a solid answer of what I can add right now that works. no speculation.

Re: "We do not support this bank. Please try a different bank account."
 

just try to add them and see if they allow to do it

Re: "We do not support this bank. Please try a different bank account."
 

Sometimes you have to bite the bullet and confirm for yourself

Re: "We do not support this bank. Please try a different bank account."
 

This is based on pure speculation. There is nothing in the rules related to any gov official stance that would force ebay to take a stand towards e-money/online banks.

Every online e-commerce platform (currently Using amazon and etsy also as a non-resident in the UK market with no issues) happily accepts either revolut, wise, monzo or payoneer, etc to their payment books.

It's not actually the e-commerce platform's responsibility to weed out any incoherence or malpractice within these banking systems they are refusing to accept, their sole job is to find buyers for our items, and obviously not very good at it, be sure they pay the sellers and take their cut.

These online banks are heavily regulated and have their own ways to verify any user they allow on there.

Long story short, always had wise for payments since I opted in MP and that lasted about a year, then restrictions, money holds, and too much time wasted with that broken customer support everyone knows about, I'm down to being paid on a 30-day basis while still using wise. Every other bank that should be available to me as a non-resident is impossible to be added to my MP.

Re: "We do not support this bank. Please try a different bank account."
 

The point is, small or online type banks usually will cause issues.

I know you said you don't want to use a big mainstream bank, but that's usually the best solution.

Re: "We do not support this bank. Please try a different bank account."
 

Any bank where you can just open online and get a digital debit card in app is now blocked by eBay. And even some banks that aren’t listed on trustly is blocked. I don’t know what eBay is up to.

And these same banks that are blocked by eBay links to etsy just fine

Re: "We do not support this bank. Please try a different bank account."
 

I can only repeat the same simple rule:

local banks that accept residents only and have a banking licence are accepted , this especially applies to all banks that have physical branches but also to most if not all online banks

Re: "We do not support this bank. Please try a different bank account."
 

Starling is an online bank and is accepted by ebay, they will need a phot ID and you will be required to read out a sentence whilst recording video, took me about 10 mins to open and use.

Wise is no longer supported as I tried adding it a few weeks ago and it was not accepted.

Just opened a monzo account, again took no more than 10 mins and same process as starling. Haven't tried adding it yet, will update once I try it out.

Re: "We do not support this bank. Please try a different bank account."
 

Good to know starling works for eBay and hoping for good news on Monzo being accepted.

Re: "We do not support this bank. Please try a different bank account."
 

both are accepted as they have a banking licence and do not take non residents

Re: "We do not support this bank. Please try a different bank account."
 

this is the reply I was looking for. thank you for this!

let us know how it goes with Monzo

Re: "We do not support this bank. Please try a different bank account."
 

You're welcome OP.

Within starling app you can open an additional account with a different account number, then you have 2 accounts to play with.


In Monzo there is an option to create virtual debit cards with any name for payment. This could be a great feature which I'll try adding as a card for "payment on file" purposes to pay fees.

As Samspalace said, it's all about trial and error.
