Payment Terms
When you register with eBay and you plan on listing items for sale you have three ways to pay:

eBay requires payment in full each month on accounts with balance of AU$1.00 or more

To place your credit card (Visa or MasterCard) on your eBay account, just complete this safe and easy form. Then your credit card will be charged monthly for the previous month's invoice amount. Now that's convenience!

If you'd rather not place your credit card on your eBay account, you can always pay eBay with a cheque or money order, or request a one-time credit card payment. Just be sure to include an eBay payment form to ensure that your payment is accurately applied to your account. Your payment will normally be posted to your eBay account within 7 - 10 business days. Please do not send cash payments to eBay.

Invoicing Procedures and Payments
At the time of registration your account is automatically assigned a billing cycle. This billing cycle pre-determines your invoicing date as well as your payment due date. This date is referred to as your Billing Cycle Date and is clearly displayed at the top of your account status page. This date will also appear on your invoice as your Invoice Date. Please check your account status to verify your Billing Cycle Date.

You will normally be invoiced within five days of your Billing Cycle Date via email. This invoice will include your previous month's account activity as well as any overdue amounts. In the event you do not receive an invoice, you are still responsible for your payment. Please check your account status for your current account balance.

eBay Billing Cycles
Billing Cycle Date When will I receive my invoice? When is my payment due?
15th of the month Between the 16th and 20th of the month By the 15th of the following month
Last day of the month Between the 1st and 5th of the month By the last day of the following month

eBay requires payment in full each month on accounts with balances of AU$1.00 or greater. You will be billed a monthly finance charge of 1.5% or the highest amount permitted by applicable law - whichever is lower - if your account becomes overdue. Your account may be suspended for non-payment, and you may be responsible for collection costs.

Members with a credit card on file for automatic monthly billing will normally have their credit card charged 7 to 10 days after receipt of their invoice. Members making payment by cheque or money order must submit payment by their payment due date which is either - the 15th of the month - or - the last day of the month - as stated in the chart above. To verify your Billing Cycle Date please review your account status. Your Billing Cycle Date is displayed in the top section of your account status page as well as on your monthly invoice.
