Instructions for new sellers
How to register
Registering for an eBay selling account is quick, easy and free. If you’ve bought something with us in the past, you can use the same account and all you’ll need to do is confirm a few extra details.
And when you’re ready to start selling, we’ll guide you every step of the way.

Sell on the eBay app

- Scan your item’s barcode to instantly add product information from the eBay catalogue.
- Get notifications on your device when you need to take action, such as when your item has been sold.
The fees for selling on eBay are the same when using our mobile apps, and the same rules and policies apply.
