- Email address
To update your email address, enter a new one here. Next, we’ll send you a confirmation email. - In order to put a new address on file here, you must be able to check this email account immediately so that you may follow the instructions we send in the confirmation email.
- Email news
When you register, by default, your communication preferences are set to opt you in to receive email news from us. You can opt-out of these marketing communications at anytime by un-checking this box. - Listing email preferences
These preferences control when (or if) we email you about listings that benefit your nonprofit. You set this preference when you registered and can change it here: -
Never notify me You will not be notified for any new listings posted on your behalf. Notify me about new listings You'll get an email when someone lists an item for you (except if they are on the "No-Notification" list). You will not be notified of changes made to the listing. Notify me about new listings and listing changes You'll get an email when someone lists an item for you, and if the seller changes that listing. - The “No-Notification” List
The "No-Notification" List lets you give special privileges to trusted Community Sellers. Add someone to this list, and we won’t send you emails when they post or change a listing that benefits you (This is different than making them a Direct Seller). - To add a seller to your “No-Notification” List:
- Type an eBay seller ID into the box beside: Add a seller to the list
- Click “Add”
- Note: To edit existing sellers on the "No-Notification" List (such as to change the eBay user ID), you must remove the seller (using the "Remove" button next to the seller's eBay ID), and then add the seller's eBay ID again.
-
Manage Direct Sellers
- To add your eBay seller ID as a Nonprofit Direct Seller (also known as connecting your accounts), you must know the eBay user ID and password for the seller account you're trying to add. To add a Direct Seller:
- Click the radio button and the "Go" button.
- You'll be taken to a special eBay sign-in page. Enter your eBay seller ID and password as directed.
- You'll be returned to a MissionFish page confirming that your Direct Seller has been added.
- Note: By adding a Direct Seller here, you're telling us that this eBay seller ID belongs to your nonprofit (as an employee or contract agent), and is selling items on eBay that your organization owns. If this is not true, do not add tbe seller ID as a Direct Seller.
