Payment Types Accepted Field

This field is a standard field that allows the seller to choose the payment types they accept as payment for a specific listing.

Highlights of this feature:

  • Sellers can choose any number of options from this field
  • Site admin determines the choices a seller can choose from site one in one admin tool
  • Each listing will have it's own payment types accepted choices
  • If you have the paypal seller to buyer payment gateway feature on/off there is no affect on this feature.

Where is the seller payment types accepted field managed?

You determine the choices allowed for sellers to choose from site wide within the following admin tool:

LISTING SETUP > PAYMENT TYPES

The following is a screenshot and further explanation of that admin tool:

  1. this is the current list of payment types accepted for the seller to choose to display in their listing details page
  2. this is the display order of each option
  3. allows you to delete an individual option
  4. allows you to add another option

All the choices you see in the above admin tool would be the options that all users who see that field will be able to choose from. There are only site wide choices but you can control site wide or by category where that field will appear if you like.

You can determine if this field is an option for a seller when placing a listing site wide here in the admin tool:

LISTING SETUP > FIELDS TO USE

The following screenshots shows where you would enable, make it required or editable:

You can determine whether to allow this field on a category by category basis within the category specific field configuration admin tool found here:

CATEGORIES > CATEGORY SETUP > [EDIT NEXT TO CATEGORY TO AFFECT] > [FIELDS]

You see the same type of admin tool that you see in the LISTING SETUP > FIELDS TO USE admin tool to change on a category by category level.

Things to know when managing seller payment types accepted field feature

  • This feature has NOTHING to do with the seller to buyer payment gateway. Changes in this feature and changes in the seller to buyer payment gateway have no effect on each other
  • This feature is NOT to be confused with the payment types you as the site accept for payment on the site from sellers which is managed in the PAYMENTS > PAYMENT GATEWAYS admin tool
  • Note that the payment choices a client makes are saved to that listing at the time their listing is placed. If you remove an option in the admin tool that option is still within any current listings in the site. To remove from individual listings you must edit and save your changes.
