eBay Global Ship Program

On this page

Overview

This is a method for sellers on eBay to offer International Shipping to appeal to new buyers from overseas for your passive CBT listings. eBay will start to opt eligible listings into the new program and display them to overseas buyers from September. eBay will let you know when your listings are included in the program. As a seller you send your items to a Domestic Shipping Centre who will then forward it on the International end destination.

How It Works

  • eBay will notify eligible sellers when listings are being enrolled into the Global Shipping Programme
  • International postage charges are automatically shown on your listings and paid in advance by your buyer
  • In Linnworks map your eBay international shipping services to a domestic Next Day service for despatching to the Domestic Shipping Centre
  • A downloaded order is identified by using the MutiLeg tag contained within the XML passed from eBay to Linnworks
  • The Address is automatically ammended to suit the Domestic Shipping Centre
  • Address Line 2 will contain the shipping reference number that is used by the Domestic Shipping centre for International forwarding purposes
  • Print your invoice/shipping label using your normal procedures
  • Ship the items to the Domestic Shipping Centre using a Next Day Service
  • Once your items arrive at the Domestic Shipping Centre, the items are sent to your buyer via a tracked international postage service
