We're all set, folks. Please follow our step-by-step guide to sign up for an eBay Partner Network account (we think it's easier than it was for Commission Junction, and far quicker). Please note that your eBay Capsules will NOT earn through Commission Junction after today, so to continue to earn through your eBay Capsules, you must make the change ASAP. If any troubles arise, please contact us via email or post in the related Forum about the change.
If you've already signed up for the new eBay program you can go ahead and enter a 10 digit numeric Campaign ID directly on the affiliate settings page.
I guess I´m the first one
. Already active!
As always you (Hubpages team) made a great work
.
Me too!
I would like to say that it is a lot easier than CJ. You can even view the ebay item number to see what was purchased when you download the transaction list (The excel one is better than the doc.). I've already updated my blogs and website. :-D I've been waiting to update my hubs.
Thanks Paul, once again you guys prove that you are on the ball, welldone hubpages.....jimmy
Paul, are you able to pull from seller stores? I have 1 hub that has never been able to get items from ebay, and I'm using a particular seller because there are never any of the items I'm trying to promote in a regular auction, only ever in stores. I've never been able to get items to pull up, even by using part of the item title. Any suggestions because I just tried again, and I still can't get anything.
Ok I seem to be the only one. I can't for the life of me find the numeric number that I am meant to put as my affiliate ID. It is all coming up under my name. Where can I look for that?
Thanks.
Donna
Donna, it's under the campaign tab in the ebay affiliate site.
Yeah....well I filled out everything, got the confirmation and I am NOT happy about putting my bank account number for direct depostit. NOT worth the risk, for a questionable benefit. I don't know these folks, and my only other experiences with eBay were bad ones. So I will not be an eBay affilliate.
You can always use Paypal to get paid if you don't want to give them your bank account info.

No. I've already had problems with paypal. Really I don't know what I was thinking even considering any partnership with eBay. I can live without them. My opinion is that they're about as secure as a shoebox.
GREAT step by step how to, Paul (or whoever wrote it).
Thanks!

This link should take you straight there.
It'd probably be a good idea to create a new campaign just for HubPages
Thanks, that was WAY easy to follow for us non-techie types!
The step by step process you layed out looked intimidating at first. It went flawless - took maybe 10 minutes tops. Way to go to keep it simple!
Thank you so much for your help. I had come across that number but didn't want to put it down in case it was the wrong one. I appreciate it, Donna
I was able to update mine. How long does GOOGLE usually take to respond regarding adsense?

I signed up last week for the new eBay program. Just plugged my id into the affiliate page. Show me the money!
Do I have to update my eBay capsules (cancel them and add them again) for the new affiliate ID to take effect? Or can I just keep my hubs with eBay capsules in them without doing a thing and my new eBay affiliate ID is automatically recognized.

It's automatic.
I assumed it would be, otherwise I would have trusted HubPages HQ to have given us further instructions. But to verify that, I did a check on one of my hubs that has an Ebay capsule and I checked the page source and indeed, the campid= on the page (the second time I refreshed it) was mine (all mine!) ![]()
Wow!! That was easy!!
Thanks Paul for the simple step by step instructions.
