Ebay - Electronic Discount Coupons
There a novel idea afoot nowadays: electronic discount coupons.
This only goes to show that most good marketing ideas can be
adopted for the internet. Instead of cutting coupons out from
newspapers or carton boxes, eBay gives out electronic copies of
such that are fast and easy to use.
eBay routinely sends out coupons that members can use to pay for
items that are payable via PayPal. These coupons signify
specified discounts to purchases made with PayPal.
Using Coupons
To use an eBay Coupon one must buy an item where the seller
accepts PayPal as a payment method. Upon payment of the item
using PayPal, an opportunity will be given to the buyer to enter
a coupon redemption code and receive the discount.
Sharing Coupons
Some coupons from eBay can be shared with other people. Some can
be used only the owner. If the coupon indicates that only a
specific email address may use that coupon, it may not be
shared.
Coupons and your eBay and PayPal accounts
To use the coupons the owner must have a PayPal and an eBay
account. If the owner does not have these accounts, he or she
must sign up for them to avail of the discounts. PayPal lets you
pay securely over the Internet using a credit card, checking
account, or a
PayPal account balance.
Important restrictions
Upon winning an eBay auction, one is required to purchase the
item even if his coupons are invalid for that type of sale.
Also, coupons can only be used one at a time. This means that
Gift Certificates, single coupons, or eBay Anything Points are
valid for one time, one at a time.
One more restriction is that the coupons cannot be used for
Half.com purchases.
Items must also meet all coupon requirements and must be paid
for in ten days from the closing of the auction on eBay.
Coupons have expiry dates. The owner should take note of the
expiry dates noted on the coupons.
Sellers may also configure their listings to accept coupons. To
accomplish this, the seller must accept PayPal as a payment
mode. If a coupon is used in the purchase of one of the seller
items, the value of the coupon is forwarded to the seller as its
equivalent in regular currency.
