Connect and Set Up an eBay Shop in Your Wix website
Here's how to Connect and Set Up an eBay Shop in Your Wix website.
i. To claim the exclusive eBay Seller offer for UK-based Wix merchants, you need to follow these steps, based on the web search results I found:
- First, you need to have a Wix-hosted website and a UK-based business that has never sold on eBay or has not sold on eBay since February 2022. If you meet these criteria, you are eligible for the offer.
- Next, you need to fill out this form² with your personal and business information, such as your name, email, phone number, business name, website, and category. You also need to confirm that you agree to be contacted by eBay and that you have read the terms and conditions of the offer
- Then, you need to wait for a marketplace advisor from eBay's Start-up Scale-up team to call you back within 3-5 working days. They will help you set up your account as a business seller and activate the offer for you. The offer includes personalised support for 12 weeks, 5% final value fees for 90 days, and zero insertion fees for 90 days.
- Finally, you need to connect your Wix store to your eBay shop and start selling your products on eBay. You can use the eBay tab in your site's dashboard to connect and manage your eBay shop. You can also find more information and guidance on how to connect and set up your eBay shop from this article.

**Tips for avoiding policy violations**
Here are some tips to help you avoid violating eBay's policies:
* Be honest and accurate in your listings.
* Make sure your listings comply with all applicable laws and regulations.
* Avoid using misleading or deceptive language in your listings.
* Do not list prohibited or restricted items.
* Be aware of and follow eBay's policies for adult items, firearms, and other sensitive items.
iii. You do not need a Premium plan to list products on eBay. However, a Premium plan can give you some advantages, such as:
* More zero insertion fee listings
* Lower final value fees
* Access to additional features, such as Stores and Seller Hub
If you are a small seller with just a few items to list, you can probably get by with the Basic plan. However, if you are a larger seller with a lot of items to list, or if you want to take advantage of the additional features offered by Premium plans, then you may want to consider upgrading to a Premium plan.
Here is a table comparing the different eBay plans:
| Plan | Zero insertion fee listings | Final value fee | Additional features |
|---|---|---|---|
| Basic | 50 | 10% | None |
| Premium | 1,000 | 9.5% | Stores, Seller Hub |
| Anchor | 10,000 | 9% | Stores, Seller Hub, dedicated customer support |
| Enterprise | 25,000 | 8.5% | Stores, Seller Hub, dedicated customer support, enhanced visibility |
To decide which plan is right for you, consider the following factors:
* How many items do you plan to list?
* What are your budget constraints?
* Do you want to take advantage of any of the additional features offered by Premium plans?
