Trading Assistants
The eBay Trading Assistants program is a network of experienced eBay sellers who have indicated
their willingness to assist others in the sale of items for a fee. Interested sellers can search the Trading
Assistant Directory to Ñnd someone to sell items on their behalf. The Trading Assistants and their clients
negotiate the terms and conditions of these services.
Payments
Following a completed transaction, eBay buyers and sellers can exchange funds by the payment
method of their choice, typically electronically through our PayPal global payments platform and also via
check or money order. PayPal enables any business or consumer with email to send and receive online
payments securely, conveniently and cost-eÅectively. PayPal's email-driven system builds on the legacy
Ñnancial infrastructure of bank accounts and credit cards to create an online payment network available to
users in 38 countries.
How PayPal Works
Joining the Network
To send or receive a payment, a user Ñrst must open a PayPal account. A new user typically opens an
account to send money for an eBay purchase or a purchase on another website, for services rendered, or
for a payment to an individual in lieu of cash. Allowing new users to join the network at the time of
making or receiving payments encourages PayPal's natural, user-driven growth. PayPal's account sign-up
process asks each new user to register with PayPal his or her name, street address and email address,
which serves as the unique account identiÑer.
