With eBay Payments, eBay has been handling the entire payment processing for the majority of its merchants. This means, eBay processes all payments for orders and then transfers them directly to the merchant's bank account.
Meanwhile, eBay enables the end customer to choose from a wide range of payment options, including PayPal, ApplePay, GooglePay, credit card, Klarna Sofortüberweisung and direct debit.
More detailed information from eBay can be found here on the eBay customer service website.
eBay also generates payment reports for its merchants, comparable to the Amazon payment reports. These payment reports can be imported to Xentral, so that all payments for your eBay orders can also be linked to the orders and invoices in Xentral and your accounting is complete.
Via the button +NEW in the account overview you can create a new eBayPayment account. If you have already created an account in Xentral, you can edit it by clicking the Edit button.
In the next step, "Account: ebay Payment (API)" is selected as the account type.
The next step is to select the eBay account and click on "Next".
To use eBay Payments, it is important that Order import via the alternative API is selected in the settings of the connected eBay account (Administration → Settings → Shop interface → *select eBay*). → Settings → Shop Interface → *select eBay*).
