Terms & conditions

These terms and conditions ("Programme Terms") govern the COVID-19 payment deferral programme ("Programme") being offered by eBay, Inc. or its subsidiaries (collectively and individually referred to as "eBay," "we," or "us") to business registered sellers and all other business sellers (as defined by jurisdiction) (collectively and individually referred to as "Sellers") using eBay Services pursuant to our User Agreement.

What is the Programme?

eBay will defer payments of Covered Fees during the Deferment Period (as explained below) to certain eligible Sellers. Fees eligible for deferment include insertion, optional listing upgrade, final value, subscription, and Promoted Listing fees ("Covered Fees"). Payments processing fees are not eligible for deferment. The Programme is not a waiver of fees due and owed to eBay under the User Agreement. Rather, any fees retained by sellers and not collected by eBay will become due and payable following the conclusion of the Deferment Period. In certain circumstances, non-Covered Fees may also be deferred along with Covered Fees. In those cases, non-Covered Fees will be due and payable in full on your next invoice and Covered Fees will become due and payable following the Deferment Period as described below.

Who is eligible?

Enrollment eligibility is subject to eBay's prior approval in its discretion. Eligibility criteria may vary by jurisdiction.

When is it?

The Deferment Period is one (1) billing cycle, payable over the next two billing cycles. Deferred fees will be due with the next invoice. Sellers will receive notice of their enrollment on the submission page for this programme.

How do I submit a request to enroll?

In order to participate in the Programme, Sellers must click to accept these Programme Terms. Acceptance of the Programme Terms however, does not constitute enrollment to the Programme. Enrollment eligibility is determined within eBay's sole discretion. Only one (1) submission per seller is permitted.
