How to change currency and create an attractive seller avatar on eBay

With the development of the Internet, online shopping has become more and more common. As one of the world’s largest e-commerce platforms, eBay has hundreds of millions of buyers and sellers. In order to help sellers run their stores better, this article will guide you on how to change the currency on eBay and how to create an attractive seller avatar.

Instructions for changing currency

As the cross-border trade market continues to boom, more and more merchants are targeting cross-border overseas opportunities, and major cross-border e-commerce platforms have become the first choice for many merchants to cross borders. For sellers who have settled on the eBay cross-border platform, eBay currently supports payment currencies including US dollars, Australian dollars, Canadian dollars, euros, Japanese yen, British pounds, Swiss francs and many other currencies. Cross-border sellers need to select the corresponding currency payment method according to the target market.

Specifically, the eBay cross-border platform displays the corresponding currency payment types based on the country or region selected during registration. For example, if the United States is selected as the registration place, the eBay cross-border platform will automatically match the US dollar and English as the common currency and language to display stores and products; if Japan is selected as the registration place, the corresponding displayed product information and payment currency types will be Switch to Japanese and Japanese Yen accordingly.

When switching operations, cross-border e-commerce sellers can find the corresponding “Change Registration Information” page after entering their account information to log in to the eBay backend. In the drop-down menu of the “Country/Region” field in the dialog box, select corresponding country, then change the seller’s local address and select “Change Properties”. Once verified, you can submit the change information. Currently, cross-border e-commerce sellers can use the above operations to select the corresponding target “overseas” target country and region, and complete the currency change operation by switching modes.

Create an attractive seller avatar

An attractive avatar can make your eBay store stand out and increase buyers’ trust and attention. In addition, changing your avatar can also help you establish a unique brand image in the fierce competition.

Choose appropriate images

Before changing your avatar, you need to choose a suitable picture. Here are suggestions:

  • Size: eBay requires seller avatars to be 120 pixels x 120 pixels. Therefore, you need to choose an image of the right size.

  • Definition: Choosing high-definition pictures can make your avatar more three-dimensional and vivid.
  • Color: Try to choose colors with higher saturation so they remain visible in black and white or grayscale mode.
