Selling with Paymate

Paymate is one of the Safer Payment Methods on eBay. When you list your item with Paymate as a payment method, your buyers can pay you securely online with a credit or debit card.

  • Payments are made directly into your bank account so you can dispatch your items faster and keep your customers happier

  • Competitive Fees. Accept credit and debit card payments without the setup of a merchant account.

  • Paymate uses the best commercially-available encryption technology to ensure that your financial information is never shared

  • You can easily keep track of transactions by going to the Paymate website. You can view a summary and details of all of your transactions

  • Competitive Fees. Accept credit and debit card payments without the setup of a merchant account.

For sellers, there is a small fee for each payment completed through Paymate.

Important: If you offer Paymate as a payment option on eBay (either using logos or text in the item description) you must accept Paymate payments.

How to verify your Paymate account

The verification process is Paymate's way of further safeguarding the security of everyone who uses the service. It assures you that the person you are transacting with is the actual owner of the account.

It also assures buyers that they are dealing with a trusted Paymate member who has successfully passed our security checks.
