Configuring your eBay Policies and Location

To be able to create eBay listings from outside of eBay itself, eBay requires that you:

• Use business policies for shipping, payment handling, and returns
• Have a defined item location from where your cards will be shipping from (used for calculating shipping rates)

Setting your default policies

Once you’ve connected your eBay account, whuppit will fetch your existing shipping, payment and return policies. You can find the imported policies in the eBay settings section of your whuppit account.

You will need to select a default policy for each category. whuppit will save your preferences to your account and use those policies for each listing it creates.

You can change your default policies at anytime. If you create new policies inside of eBay, they will be automatically imported into whuppit for you to select.

Setting your item location

eBay requires an item location—the location you will be shipping from—in order to calculate shipping rates and availability.

You can define an item location directly in whuppit in your eBay settings, under the Item Location section.

An item location consists of, at minimum:

• A street address
• A city
• State
• Postal Code
• Country (currently US only, but please reach out if you have need for different locations)

Once you’ve entered your location, hit “Save Location”. whuppit will now use this location for all new listings generated on eBay.

You’re ready

With your eBay account connected, your default policies set, and your item location saved, you’re now technically ready to start creating listings on your eBay account, directly from whuppit!

There’s a little more you can do with stored templates and background images to make your listing process more efficient, and your listings stand out more.
