Ok, so maybe this is an eBay issue. But I am confused. More and more people are paying with checks and money orders because they say paypal is not on the list of options. Is this because it is on Vendios list and not eBay. Help, I'm really confused....

Hi Cramer,
Since Paypal has been integrated with eBay, there are a few different options to apply a Paypal logo to your listing. Please let us know what you prefer:
1. A Paypal logo in the body of your description only, with no eBay references to Paypal in your ad and no "Pay Now" button when your listing closes (this is recommended if you are using Vendio Checkout.)
2. A Paypal logo under "Payment Methods Accepted" in your listings (in addition to the one inserted into the body of your description by our system), with the wording "This seller prefers Paypal" inserted and the "Pay Now" button leading to Paypal only when the listing closes (this will also enable your buyers to go through Paypal checkout and may interfere with your Vendio Checkout process.)
3. A Paypal logo under "Payment Methods Accepted" in your listings (in addition to the one inserted into the body of your description by our system), with the wording "This seller prefers Paypal" inserted and the "Pay Now" button presenting Paypal and all other payment methods when the listing closes (this will enable your buyers to go through eBay's checkout and may interfere with your Vendio Checkout process.)
4. A Paypal logo only under "Payment Methods Accepted" in your listings (in addition to the one inserted into the body of your description by our system), with no "seller prefers Paypal" wording and the "Pay Now" button leading to Paypal only when the listing closes (this will also enable your buyers to go through Paypal checkout and may interfere with your Vendio Checkout process.)
5. A Paypal logo only under "Payment Methods Accepted" in your listings (in addition to the one inserted into the body of your description by our system), with no "seller prefers Paypal" wording and with the "Pay Now" button presenting Paypal and all other payment methods when the listing closes (this will enable your buyers to go through eBay's checkout and may interfere with your Vendio Checkout process.)
Please let us know what you prefer, and we will let you know how to proceed.

Sonya,
Number 2, please, because most of my customers don't use the Vendio chekcout anyhow. I usually end up having to email them and walk them through it. Thanks, Linda

Hello Linda,
If you would like a Paypal logo under "Payment Methods Accepted" in your listings, with the wording "This seller prefers Paypal" inserted and the "Pay Now" button leading to Paypal only when the listing closes, please take the following steps:
Go to My Account -> Global Preferences, and select the "Include the PayPal Checkout button and logo" option for Paypal.
Next, log on to your eBay account and go to My eBay -> Preferences -> Update Payment/Checkout Preferences and choose the following:
- Show Pay Now button for PayPal only (Pay Now preference)
- Tell my buyers that I prefer PayPal payments (PayPal preference)
This will insert a logo in Payment Methods Accepted on your eBay listings, with the "prefers PayPal" message. When your listings close, a Pay Now button for PayPal only will appear for the buyer.
Please let us know if you have any additional questions.

What if shipping charges are not stated in the auction, how would the customers know what the total is if using the "Pay Now" button for Paypal ?
