managed payments ! is it mandatory to sign up for this ? what happens if one refuses

[ambros_51]

what  are  the  advantages  to  managed  payments  vs  the  old  style  pay pal  system ? 

[cumos55]

If you are told it is time to register for Managed Payments,   

and you do not register for Managed Payments,  never register.....

You will no longer sell on eBay,

It is your choice to register or not to register....

There are several discussions of what Managed Payments will mean for Canadian sellers-- and Canadian buyers.

Search the Sellers Board for information.

So far the things I think I understand are:

• Our buyers can continue to pay with Paypal but the money will come to us through Managed Payments
• Each transaction with a seller will cost 30c and there can be several purchases within one transaction.
• Payments will be put directly into our bank account by Managed Payments.

The things no one can tell us:

• Can we have more than one bank account, specifically a Canadian bank account and  an American bank account on the same Managed Payments account.
• What are the percentage fees we will pay for non-Canadian payments.

And one I haven't seen raised yet:  With Paypal we have two levels of Buyer Protection, eBay's Money Back Guarantee and Paypal's Buyer Protection.  Will sellers now only have to deal with the Money Back Guarantee?
