Is eBay planning to eliminate third-party checkout?
Yes. We realize that checkout services offered by eBay Certified Solution Providers are valuable services to our sellers. But they also require buyers to leave eBay.com to complete payments for eBay items. We are working closely with these providers to integrate the experience they provide buyers into eBay checkout in 2009, in a way that is not disruptive for eBay sellers. Ultimately, it’s eBay’s goal to have buyers always pay for their purchases within the secure confines of eBay.
