Have something you want to sell online? Thinking about using 2Checkout to allow you to make those sales? It is, as they say, “easy as pie”. But like pie (or cake, or tarts). there are a few steps until the desired results. Here is a brief step-by-step explanation of what you can expect between the moment you click on “Start Selling” and receiving your first payment.
- Start Selling - the selling wizard. This collects the basic information we need to create your account. We make our policies and conditions available and require that you agree to them. Then we collect contact and banking information so we know who you are and where and how to send your payments. Then, we have you create your account user name and password and use that information to connect to your brand new 2Checkout account.
- Risk Document and site review - You will be sent a copy of our Risk Document to complete, so we can verify who we’re doing business with. The site review lets us make sure that your site is operating within our terms of service. The vast majority of sellers pass shortly after we receive their documents, but from time to time we need to request clarifications or suggest changes before a site is approved.
- Validation -
On the statement of the credit card used to pay the initial signup fee, you will receive a code. Use this code to validate your account from within your account, or by calling the telephone number listed after the code. This is quick and easy and can also be sent via fax or ticket if voice/telephone contact cannot be made.UPDATE: As of March 25, 2009, validation is no longer required. - Verifications - Once you start to sell your products this last phase of our signup process begins. We will contact some of your customers to verify that they have received and are happy with their purchase(s).
- We send you your money - This is the best part! After the Account Reserve is applied and you meet the account’s Release Level we will send you your money.
