Home : Help : Billing : Can I still pay by alternate means?

Can I still pay by check, money order, or one-time credit card payment if I have a credit card on file?

Yes, you can. However, if eBay doesn't receive payment in time, your credit card on file will be charged for any money owed.

Check or money order payments: If you have a credit card on file but want to send a check or money order instead, it is necessary for you to monitor your account status and mail payment for the MONEY OWED OR GREATER 10 days prior to your Billing Cycle Date. Mailing your payment 10 days prior to your Billing Cycle Date will allow for enough time to process your payment before your next invoice is calculated (invoices are calculated at the end of day on your Billing Cycle Date). Please keep in mind that any money owed at the time your invoice is calculated will result in a charge to your credit card on file.

If your Billing Cycle Date is: Payment should be mailed to eBay by:
15th of the month 5th day of the month
Last day of the month 20th day of the month

Remember: Make sure to mail payment early so we don't have to charge your credit card. Click here to view your account status.

One-Time Credit Card Payment: If you have a credit card on file but intend to make an online one-time credit card payment using a different credit card, it is necessary to make payment before your Billing Cycle Date. This will allow for your payment to post to your account before your next invoice is calculated (invoices are calculated at the end of the day on your Billing Cycle Date). Remember, you must pay the OUTSTANDING BALANCE OR GREATER in order to avoid a charge to your credit card on file. Click here to make an online one-time credit card payment and select Option 1.

Please Note: Any money owed at the time of invoicing will result in a charge to your credit card on file.
