Announcing launch of all new PaisaPay!

We are pleased to announce that starting the week of 3rd December 2007 we will be launching several enhancements to PaisaPay. These enhancements are aimed at making transacting on eBay even more safe, fun and providing our buyers with a delightful experience. New PaisaPay will provide a mechanism for the buyers and sellers to complete their PaisaPay transactions with ease and help our sellers increase their business on eBay.

The New PaisaPay flow:




Key Highlights:

 
1. Providing a delightful buyer experience: Buyers will now be able to use PaisaPay for fast, assured purchases or get their money back! In case the buyer does not receive the item purchased with the prescribed timelines, he will have the option to get a quick refund.

 
2. Uniform performance guidelines for Sellers: In new PaisaPay the sellers will have fixed timelines within which they need to ship and deliver the item. This will help in providing a standardised seller experience where sellers will have clear performance guidelines. In case a seller needs more time to ship or deliver the product, he can request the buyer for a time extension.

 
3. Easy tracking of shipments for both Buyers & Sellers: Sellers will be required to enter the shipping details in My PaisaPay within the prescribed timelines. This will give buyers and sellers a quick reference point to know the shipment status thereby resulting in smooth communication between buyers & sellers.

 
4. Easy Refund Mechanism:

  
a. In case the seller is not able to ship the item: Seller can easily issue a refund to the buyer by not entering the shipping details within the prescribed timelines. In such cases PaisaPay will automatically issue a refund to the buyer. The sellers no longer need to follow the offline process of contacting PaisaPay Customer Support for issuing refund.

  
b. In case the buyer does not receive the item: If the buyer has not received the item within the prescribed timelines he has the option to raise a refund claim. In case the seller has delivered the item he will have 5 days to dispute the buyer’s claim. In case of any dispute between the buyer and seller on item delivery, PaisaPay’s decision will be final.

 
5. Seller Remittance on Buyer Confirmation: PaisaPay shall remit the money to the seller as soon as the buyer confirms item receipt or does not raise a refund claim in the prescribed timelines. Certain Qualified sellers will be eligible for Express Remittance.

 
6. Express Remittance for Qualified sellers: Sellers who qualify for Express Remittance will have their individual Express Remittance limit. Please note that Express Remittance is a privilege for sellers with strong business and good behaviour history on eBay. The option to offer this privilege to sellers will be at the sole discretion of PaisaPay.

 
7. Online Remittance to replace Demand Drafts: PaisaPay will remit seller’s money online to his bank account instead of mailing demand drafts. This will save both the courier & encashment time for the sellers. It will also mean no more cases of lost demand drafts.

 
8. Twice a week remittance cycle: PaisaPay will now be sending money to sellers twice a week (bi-weekly basis) replacing the process of weekly remittance.

 
9. All new My PaisaPay: The new ‘My PaisaPay’ in “My eBay”, will give buyers & sellers an easier interface to communicate with each other and stay updated on transaction details.

 
10. PaisaPay Phone Support to be extended to all seven days of the week: PaisaPay phone support will be extended to all seven days of the week (from current five days a week) from the month of December 07.

 
11. PaisaPay becomes mandatory: All listings will automatically offer PaisaPay as a mode of payment. Sellers can also offer other mode of payments. Sellers with 20 or less listings will be able to offer PaisaPay as the only mode of payment. Read FAQ’s.

 
12. PaisaPay Invoice: To ease the process of reconciliation and accounting your PaisaPay transactions PaisaPay would be issuing a monthly Invoice to sellers.

 
13. eBay Buyer Protection remains the same: Buyers will continue to remain eligible for eBay Buyer Protection after time-out period. All other buyer protection features will remain the same. Read FAQ’s.

 
14. PaisaPay EMI Option: Sellers with 5 or more feedback will have the option to offer 3 and 6 month EMI in their listings, which can be availed by buyers paying via ICICI bank credit cards. Additional PaisaPay charges apply fro EMI transactions. Read FAQ’s


To avail the Enhanced PaisaPay facility from the week of December 3, 2007, all sellers will need to register again with PaisaPay and update their bank details here. We encourage you to update your details as soon as possible on this link. Read FAQ’s.

We understand that you might have questions to understand the changes better. Please feel free to read the FAQ’s, go through the details on this page and on the tutorial, contact our Customer Service team or post your questions on this thread.

We are very excited about these changes as we believe that this will help us in providing a high quality online shopping experience to our users and help in making eBay the favoured destination of online shoppers.

Regards,
The eBay Team

I have the same concern as gizmozindia

PaisaPay has ignored the online tracking info since ages .... they never accept it!! A great initiative, only the implementation of the same will tell how successful it is ...

Hi

It's Great.
I love the changes. Specially the EMI & Express remittance.
Eagerly waiting for ALL NEW PAISAPAY.

Only the bad thing is: Have to provide POD in case of dispute within 5 days. Which is Nearly impossible.:|

With Best Regards

If the buyer raises a dispute for non delivery it will be impossible for sellers to provide a physical POD.

So we would request some clarification in this regards

Hello,

My question is actually about the application of Rs.200/- charge for EMI for product below Rs.2000/-

Say I am selling a product at Rs.1899/- with a shipping charge of Rs.102/-, so total cost to Buyer will be Rs.2001/-.

Will the Rs.200/- additional charge be applicable?

Hi,

Most of you guys have missed the point that instead of being paid right away as soon as the buyer pays, you will now be paid only after the buyer confirms receipt of the item.

I would like to see some comments on the same.

Hi,
The new paisa pay seems to be nice so far.

1 concern as raised by few people earlier. What if the buyer receives the package but forgets to acknowledge the same on his eBAY account. Would this mean that the seller would not receive the payment.

The new rules are ridiculous for a good seller.

Too much job for a seller in case of delay in shipping process. Also entering shipping details of individual shipping details unnecessarily, except some delay.

PaisaPay should count the number of working days (Mon-Fri & less public holidays), not number of days. For example during Christmas and NewYear it is public holiday. Definitely there is a delay in shipping system. The new rule does not protect a good seller.

PaisaPay says if buyer lodge a complaint about item not received, with in 5 days he get his money and run away. What if the item is returned back to the sellers address after 10 days, because of buyers wrong address? some time if buyer not availalble at home for 3 days, the courier, Indian Post returned to the origin saying "unclaimed". In that case who pay for the shipping charge again ?

PaisaPay assumes only sellers make mistakes, why not buyers ?.

If my concerns are not resolved, going to have big crisis in eBay by loosing good sellers.

The rules are totally ridiculous and most of the sellers will be wiped out, including me.

Hi super.shopper.24x7,

Gald that you like the new features of PaisaPay. We are equally excited about providing a fantastic experience to our users once the system goes live.

If the buyer forgets to confirm receipt, PaisaPay will remit a seller's money as soon as the time-out happens.

In case of all transactions the buyer will have 5 days to confirm the receipt of the product once shipping deadline is over.

Regards,
Sapana

Hi cameras_n_such,

The total amount payable by the buyer (product cost + shipping charges+ insurance + taxes etc) will be considered for the Rs. 2000 limit.

For example - in your example, if the total payable amount by the buyer s 2001, you will not be charged Rs. 200 extra.

Just another perspective for benefit of all sellers - as sellers would agree that it is possible to know the final price in case of fixed price or normal aucitons. In case of 1 paisa auctions, the sellers might now know the final price the product will end at.

Regards,
Sapana
