Recurring payment issue with my buyers
Summary: ksanarus_85 expresses frustration about payment issues on their listings, especially the unavailability of installment payment options through Klarna or PayPal, even though these are available from other sellers. They ask for help making these options accessible to their buyers. francexpressdeal explains that payment settings are determined by the site, noting that Klarna has a price limit, and clarifies that Klarna payments are visible on the listing. ksanarus_85 corrects the original amount and remains concerned about the continued blockage.
Hello,
I’m contacting you about a recurring payment issue with my buyers, and more specifically with my recent listings (notably after accepting offers or creating new listings).
My buyer wants to pay for their purchase (for an amount of €3752) in several installments via Klarna or PayPal payment solutions. However, these installment payment options are systematically blocked or unavailable on my listings, even though they are perfectly accessible from other sellers.
We have already tried creating a brand-new dedicated listing without an immediate payment option, but the problem persists: the buyer still gets errors and the payment plans do not appear.
I want to express to you, as well as to my buyer, our strong frustration with the complexity and lack of clarity of the payment settings on the platform. As a seller, I simply want all my buyers to be able to benefit from all the payment methods available on eBay (including 3x or 4x payment via Klarna/PayPal), without unjustified blocking.
Could you please check my account and unlock these installment payment options for my listings and for this buyer in particular?
I look forward to your prompt response.
Kind regards, Oksana

you can't configure anything at your level as a seller for payment methods.
They are decided solely by the site. Note that for certain item categories, some payment methods are not accepted.
Payment policy | eBay
Regarding Klarna, the maximum amount is €1500
Pay with Klarna installment payments | eBay
I quote: "Klarna installment payments are available for many items whose total value is between 35 and 1 500 EUR per order, in most categories."

OP2 weeks agoI was mistaken ; the amount in question was 375 euros. But the problem persists. Maybe a setting is blocking the payment ?

what I don’t understand is that the Klarna payment does appear on your listing:
EDIT: I refreshed the page and the accepted payment methods have changed...
It’s clearly a bug. Contact eBay directly to report it.
