Checkout and the eBay Express Shopping Cart

eBay Express supports a multi-seller shopping cart and a pay-before-you-buy checkout.

The shopping cart works like most online shopping carts. For example, buyers can add multiple items from multiple sellers to a cart, and buyers pay once for all the items in their shopping cart. Unlike eBay.com, an item in a buyer’s cart is still available to be purchased by another buyer until the item has been paid for.

All payments (including credit card payments) are processed through PayPal and deposited into the seller’s PayPal account. The seller receives a single payment for each order.

We anticipate no special changes to API calls that support transactions and orders. That is, these calls will work the same way for both eBay.com and eBay Express sales.

If your application supports Third-Party Checkout (also known as Checkout Redirect), download Third Party Checkout and eBay Express for special requirements, plus information about a new Platform Notification that will be available soon.

Please note that these details are subject to change. Please keep an eye on this announcement, the newsletter, and the documentation for the latest updates.
