Donate by selling on eBay.co.uk

There's a great way of raising money for Epilepsy Action, and that's by selling your unwanted items on eBay.co.uk - through the eBay for Charities scheme.

It's easy to donate between 10 and 100 per cent of the final sale price to Epilepsy Action when you sell on eBay.co.u. All you need to get started is an eBay.co.uk seller account and an item to sell.

Start selling on eBay

Sign into your eBay.co.uk account and click "sell" to list an item, just as you normally do.

Choose to donate

In the "Pricing & Duration" section of the Sell Your Item form, choose "Donate a percentage of sale to charity" to launch the eBay for Charity feature.

Select a charity and donation percentage

Find Epilepsy Action in the MissionFish charity directory. If you're a new eBay for Charity user, you'll have to register with MissionFish before you finish. Then choose how much of your final sale price (between 10 and 100 per cent) you would like to donate. A £5 minimum donation applies.

Finish your listing

Once you've selected Epilepsy Action to benefit from your listing, review your listing details and submit it as usual.

What happens next?

When your listing goes live, eBay.co.uk will let us know that you will be making a donation to us if your item sells.

When your item sells, complete your transaction with the winning bidder as usual. You'll be reminded to pay your donation through your MissionFish account. If you forget to pay the donation, Missionfish will collect it by charging your credit card (two weeks after the auction closes) and then pass it on to us. They'll also claim for Gift Aid (if applicable).
