Using PayPal With eBay Mobile

SandaralHello, I’m Sandra Lin from PayPal’s mobile team.  I have some great news for all of you eBay fans out there.  You can now bid, buy, and pay for eBay items – all from the convenience of your mobile phone! And with the launch of eBay Mobile’s new site (m.ebay.com) you can use your PayPal account to pay for items directly from your mobile phone.

To celebrate, we’re offering anyone who makes a purchase using eBay Mobile and pays with PayPal a chance to win $10,000 and an iPhone.  We’re also giving away $100 cash to five lucky buyers every day through November 30, so feel free to enter as often as you’d like!

Using eBay Mobile with PayPal is safe and easy:
1) Go to m.ebay.com on your mobile phone
2) Search, bid and win an auction-style listing or use Buy It Now
3) Use your phone to pay with PayPal

Just think how great this will be for those of us who are hooked on eBay.  I can now slip in that last minute bid and pay for my item from just about anywhere.  Fall boots, here I come!

This is great news. :)

My biggest issue with the checkout flow for the last few years has been the Pay Now button glitch, I hope they have this fixed so when users are exploring using PayPal Mobile they don't receive the message:

"Transaction Cancelled: Your payment has not been made, please go back to My eBay and try again."
