-This page will allow you to enable/disable and configure certain seller to buyer gateways, which allow the winning bidder of an auction to pay the auction seller.  Note that this //does// apply to normal auctions and "buy now" auctions, and //does not// apply to dutch auctions or reverse auctions.+These instructions have been moved to the [[startup_tutorial_and_checklist:feature_configuration:payments:seller_buyer_payments:start|seller to buyer payment gateways]] section of the support wiki
  
-Note that right now, the only "built in" seller to buyer gateway is Paypal, but there may also be addons that add additional seller to buyer gateways. 
  
-===== To fully enable a gateway ===== 
  
-There are multiple steps to enable a certain gateway: 
- 
-**Admin Steps**\\ 
-To allow a gateway to be used (applies to most gateways, including the built-in Paypal): 
-  - Enable the gateway "site wide", on the page **Payments > Seller to Buyer Gateways** 
-  - Enable the gateway under **Pricing > Price Plans Home > [click edit for auction price plan] > [click Cost Specifics]** 
- 
-**User Steps**\\ 
-For each user, to start using the seller to buyer gateway (applies to most gateways, including the built-in Paypal): 
-  - In My Account, click on My Information page. 
-  - On this page you will configure any settings needed for the gateway to work.  In the case of Paypal, the user will enter their Paypal e-mail ID. 
- 
-Now, during place a listing process, on the collect details page, the user should now see a check-box to allow using the "on-site payment" **If they check this box**, when the auction closes, the winning bidder will see a link for "pay now" in the following locations: 
- 
-**Typical Pay Now locations:** 
-  * My Current Bids page 
-  * Auction details page 
-  * E-mail sent to buyer 
-  * If buy-now, on the page saying the buy now "bid" was successful. 
- 
-<tip c h>Don't see the "pay now" button as the winning bidder? 
- 
-That means the checkbox was not checked when the seller placed the listing.</tip> 
-
