Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Who can be an Upward seller?

Sellers are 13 or older. Anyone under 18 runs the business with a parent or guardian, who owns the eBay and PayPal accounts. Seller sign-up isn’t open yet.

Who handles my stuff?

A local Upward seller photographs and lists your item, then handles buyer messages. You agree on the item and selling plan together before anything is listed.

Does Upward handle the money?

No. Buyers pay your seller’s eBay account, and your share comes from their PayPal. If your seller is under 18, a parent or guardian owns both. Upward never holds or pays out sale money.

How does the AI listing help work?

It drafts a title and description for your seller to review and edit. They decide what gets listed.

How much does it cost?

Nothing upfront. Your seller’s commission comes out of the sale price, and you see the fee schedule before you agree to anything.
