Getting paid

leighanns520 · #1 02-27-2020

eBay managed payments have been stepping it up.
Get my payouts day after sent and now the seller can choose daily payouts or weekly.
In the spring we will be able to purchase shipping labels and the cost of labels to be deducted from pending payments. Glad to see these changes

Yeah... I saw that too.

Cool stuff I guess, but I haven't ever used eBay postage.

I do save using eBay for labels verses the cost at post office.
I do believe tho, one can also save using stamps.com as well. I am sure there are other sites too that would also give the discount.

I am pleased that eBay is making some positive changes with managed payments.
Hoping they keep it up. Seems over time they are doing better by being prompt with payouts than when I joined.

I prefer to keep using other sources for labels and my credit card for the 2.5% cash back.

That's how its been on Etsy hence why I said I welcome Managed Payments.

It's just the stealth aspect I am not looking forward too.

stamps.com is what I've always used. They give all the same discounts as eBay (even more of a discount in certain cases), and like ebs said, you get the option of building up a massive amount of credit card points by using a postage company that allows you to top up your account with a credit card.

What credit card do you use for 2.5% cashback? I heard a certain chase card gives 3x back in the form of points, but I've only used capital ones spark card for 2%

Some new company called Ollo. I was skeptical, at first, but things have went great so far.

At the time, it was invite only, but I have no idea if that has changed or not since then.

They must've hooked you up with a special rate.

All I can see on their site for postage buys is 1%, which is what I'm getting with my in-house credit union card. I get $50 per 5000 points, $1 purchase = 1 point.. so it's essentially 1% cash back.

ebaystealth1974 · #13 02-28-2020

I guess you missed the "invite only" part.

ebaystealth1974 · #14 02-28-2020

They were seemingly targeting people who were highly likely to carry a balance, and rake in those profits. Little did they know, homie don't play dat!

No.. I just assumed their cash back policy would be the same for everybody.

Agent once on managed payments you can do once a week deposits or daily.

Gonna check out the stamps.com and give it a try
I am always trying to save money and if rewarded too, that's even better.

Pirateship may be worth your time.

They do everything stamps.com does, but without the monthly subscription fee. I've been eyeing them for a while I just haven't switched because I've been using stamps.com since I got started.
