Above-Standard PSs launch 16th January
As of January, there will be three classes of seller on eBay UK: TRS, the new Above-Standard PowerSeller, and ordinary mortals. Here are the FVF discounts they will receive:
PS level
Top-Rated
Above-Standard
| Bronze/Silver |
20% |
5% |
| Gold/Platinum |
25% |
10% |
| Titanium |
30% |
15% |
Sellers who do not qualify as either TRS or ASPS will no longer receive any discounts on their FVFs.
So if you haven’t made it to the heady heights of TRS – or you are, like so many sellers, dipping in and out of that program on a monthly basis depending on whether you’ve had a couple of grumpy buyers or not – will you qualify as an ASPS? You’ll need:
- All DSRs to average 4.6 or higher
- Item as described DSRs: no higher than 1% (or 3 total if that’s higher) 1 and 2 scores
- All other DSRs: no higher than 2% (or 3 total if that’s higher) 1 and 2 scores
(As with TRS, DSRs scores are looked at over 3 months if you’ve completed more than 400 transactions in that period, and over 12 months if you haven’t.)
