Important updates to your seller performance protection

Information is constantly updated.

Update on the classification of shipping methods and logistics service providers

To further improve the delivery experience of buyers, eBay has updated the classification of shipping methods and logistics service providers (LSPs) used by eBay sellers. This means that you may need to change the shipping methods offered in your listings based on the LSPs that you ultimately use to ship your products.

It is strongly recommended that you offer your shipping methods as accurately as possible that will not only help you to improve your performance on eBay but also increase your sales.
