How to sell digital goods on eBay and other sites where E-junkie buttons can not be used? How to use eBay digital delivery?


For selling a digital product (ebooks, phone cards, software etc.) on eBay and other auction/store sites, follow the steps below. E-junkie will deliver your product automatically after a successful PayPal payment.

  1. Create your eBay or other auction/store site listing
  2. Add your product in E-junkie Admin:
    • Go to E-junkie Admin and click on Add product
    • Enter the item name exactly as you had entered the auction Title in eBay or other auction/store site.
    • You can enter any price you want, as that is not considered for eBay listings. ONLY If you are selling on some other auction site, the price you enter should be the minimum at which your item can sell on that site.
    • Currency should be the same as the currency you are accepting in your eBay or other auction/store site listing.
    • Configure other options you need (download, codes, redirection) which you need for the product.
    • Press Submit button.
    • Go to E-junkie Seller Admin > Edit Profile. Make sure the PayPal e-mail you enter in your E-junkie profile is the same as the one you have entered in your eBay listing and is the same PayPal email where you will accept the payment.
    • You need to do this step only once for each product you are selling on eBay. You do not need to repeat this when you re-list your product on eBay.
  3. Adjust your PayPal account. This step is only required ONCE.
    • In your PayPal account, go to Profile, go to Instant Payment Notification Preferences.
    • Press EDIT, tick the checkbox to enable IPN.
    • Enter https://www.e-junkie.com/ecom/ipn_ext.php as your IPN URL.
    • Press SAVE.

Important Notes:

  • E-junkie is completely compatible with eBay collective payments, even if the payment includes the items which are not added in E-junkie admin.
  • If you are listing your product on some other auction site, E-junkie will handle that as well as long as the payment buyer sends you via PayPal includes the item name exactly as you have listed it in E-junkie.
