HELP! ACTION REQUIRED: ***** register for managed payments by July 15th
 

I literally just received this email.

“Managed payments supports an enhanced buying and selling experience on eBay, providing sellers one place to sell and get paid, and buyers more ways to pay. eBay will manage payments for most sellers in 2020, and your account, will be activated for managed payments starting late July. To ensure you are ready in advance of the change and that there are no interruptions to your business, you will need to register by July 15th, 2020.

Please click here to register for managed payments by July 15, 2020.

What does it mean to “register” my business?
Registration allows you to get your business ready early for managed payments. You can register in a few simple steps, including verifying your business information and providing a bank account. This information will allow us to send your payouts and comply with Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and know-your-customer obligations, which helps keep eBay a trusted marketplace. You will be able to track your registration progress on the Payments tab in Seller Hub.

What happens after I register?
Nothing will change on your account or how you manage your business on eBay until your account is activated for managed payments starting late July 2020. We will ensure you have access to all the detailed information you may need to be prepared before activation and you will be notified of your activation date well in advance. In order to learn more and start registration, please click here.

What are the benefits of eBay managing payments?
• More ways for buyers to pay: Buyers can pay with credit, debit and gift cards, PayPal, PayPal Credit, Apple Pay or Google Pay.
• One place to sell and get paid: You can access everything you need to sell and get paid, all on eBay: a single source for fees, customized reports, refunds, simplified protections, tax documentation, and dedicated support. If you use third-party tools, there should be no change in how you use those tools on managed payments.
• Streamlined operations: Payouts are regularly deposited to your bank account weekly or as soon as funds are available, based on your preference. Regardless of how the buyer pays, payouts are consistently available within two business days of an order confirmation. Pending payouts can also be used to pay for shipping labels, in addition to using a PayPal account. You can easily ship to international buyers with our Global Shipping Program (GSP).
• Simplified fees: Once activated for managed payments starting late July, you will pay only one final value fee1, consisting of a category-based percentage of the total amount of the sale, plus a fixed fee per order, with no third-party payments processing fees. Your final value fees will be automatically deducted from your sales proceeds, and the rest paid out to your bank account. Most sellers can expect to see overall savings2.

We are notifying you because the eBay features and tools you use currently are fully supported in the managed payments experience - the new way business is done on eBay. By registering now, you will ensure that your business does not experience any disruptions when we enable accounts for managed payments starting late July 2020.

So....what does this mean? This is a LONG term eBay account from 2011. What will happen on July 15th?? Is this account toast? It has full stealth everything and PayPal, has an emigrant direct bank account. What should I do?? Like will the account be toast on July 15th?

Re: HELP! ACTION REQUIRED: ***** register for managed payments by July 15th
 

Just change your details to your real info and assign a new bank.

I have a feeling all will be OK. I mean it's toast either way isn't it with ⊗⊗⊗⊗ details ? Ebay take a lot more into account than suspended information especially if you have been making them a lot of money for the past decade and the account is in good standing.

Re: HELP! ACTION REQUIRED: ***** register for managed payments by July 15th
 

You are displaying your account name. Delete that in your opening post before anything else.

Re: HELP! ACTION REQUIRED: ***** register for managed payments by July 15th
 

Very dangerous how youre showing your ebay seller name on here. Remove it ASAP.

Re: HELP! ACTION REQUIRED: ***** register for managed payments by July 15th
 

I deleted it

Re: HELP! ACTION REQUIRED: ***** register for managed payments by July 15th
 

The account is in good standing? What will happen to the account on the 15th???

Re: HELP! ACTION REQUIRED: ***** register for managed payments by July 15th
 

I guess a few of my questions are, first off this isn’t a business account? This is just a personal account? I’m moving so I probably sold off 50 items over the past month on eBay but I don’t use this for business purposes or anything like that?

My other question is the eBay account has stealth details? Is the account going to be toast in July? Should I just go through and sell off everything I can like crazy expecting the account to never be able to be used again in July? I’m bummed out, this is an extremely old account and honestly I probably only sell 120 items a year on it?

Re: HELP! ACTION REQUIRED: ***** register for managed payments by July 15th
 

Yep, they sending this to all top rated plus sellers today. looks like they ramping this up hardcore. i shouldn't say all, it's older accounts + higher volumes.

Re: HELP! ACTION REQUIRED: ***** register for managed payments by July 15th
 

So what’s the plan?

Re: HELP! ACTION REQUIRED: ***** register for managed payments by July 15th
 

I just received same email,just follow the instructions-verify your personal information,it asked if you are personal or business,SSN or ITIN and then link a bank.
It reminded you to enter accurate bank information.

Re: HELP! ACTION REQUIRED: ***** register for managed payments by July 15th
 

But my information is stealth...

Re: HELP! ACTION REQUIRED: ***** register for managed payments by July 15th
 

Ill wait till the end to do any they ask for. No reason burning a bank account in case eBay suspends in the next 2.5 months

Re: HELP! ACTION REQUIRED: ***** register for managed payments by July 15th
 

Can anyone verify we can enter real-name bank accounts for stealth addresses? Haven't seen any confirmations either wether EIN from LLC works fine instead of using SSN.

We need to get a plan of action together moving forward.

On the uk they have released a pdf explaining exactly what they need for chosing the business method. Individual they haven’t said yet

Re: HELP! ACTION REQUIRED: ***** register for managed payments by July 15th
 

I'll say this. I have a stealth eBay that got the same email a few months back, I took a shot in the dark and put in all real info for the managed payments integration. Everything has been smooth so far, no suspension.

So yes, so far, you can sign up with real info if your account is stealth, (in my experience.)

Re: HELP! ACTION REQUIRED: ***** register for managed payments by July 15th
 

So wait you’re entering in your own Social Security number and stuff? What do they ask for? My question is it’s a stealth with 100% bogus information don’t they ask for a Social Security number and bank account? Doesn’t that all have to match? Or are you putting in your real Social Security number and bank account even with the stealth details attached to it?

Re: HELP! ACTION REQUIRED: ***** register for managed payments by July 15th
 

The danger is them linking all your accounts ?? Am going to reg 2 business accounts using the business method and 2 accounts using the individual method to try to minimise the links

Re: HELP! ACTION REQUIRED: ***** register for managed payments by July 15th
 

Can you link me to this .pdf ?

Re: HELP! ACTION REQUIRED: ***** register for managed payments by July 15th
 

It’s all in the MP section on your seller hub at the bottom

Re: HELP! ACTION REQUIRED: ***** register for managed payments by July 15th
 

Enough with all this British stuff. What’s going on with the United States stealth users?

I’m guessing I’m not the only one that got this email today? What is the plan in the United States to deal with this?

Re: HELP! ACTION REQUIRED: ***** register for managed payments by July 15th
 

There are loads of threads regarding MP in the US. You were the first to get it. Search the forums for more info.

Re: HELP! ACTION REQUIRED: ***** register for managed payments by July 15th
 

Ad love to know what they require for the individual method no info on that. Business they want all kinds
