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.

Hi amitava da (amitava123gems),

Just like you do not sell on any other portal, eBay also depends only on its seller community for its revenues. Please be assured that eBay will never do anything that will harm its seller community. This move, we believe, will take a strong leap in increasing buyer trust on site and will thus help in increased sales, which will help our sellers in increasing business.

Once again, if you ever have any difficulty in the new PaisaPay process, do contact us. The whole eBay team is geared up to ensure that our sellers concerns are addressed on priority basis.

Warm Regards,
Sapana

Hi cameras_n_such,

My humble apologies for irating you or offending anyone with my suggestion.

The intent of the the suggesiton was certainly not to teach you how to do your business or to enhance adoption of Speed Post. It was just a suggestion based on my experience and some data posints on where maximum buyers come from.

I am completely with you when you say that sellers know what works best for them. Please feel free to ignore my comments if you do not find it worthy of your consideration.

Regards,
Sapana

Sapnaji,

Sarcasm does not suit you.

Jus to add on the point of Speed Post. In the new scenario where seller will have to provide a POD within a timeline (unpon buyer dispute), Speed Post is totally unsuitable.

Speed Post Tracking (online as well as offline) is Hopeless. You must have read that in other sellers Post.

Acknowledgement Due (POD for you) from Speed Post comes at time which is determined by India Post.(usually 30-45 days after dispatch). There is no way sellers can speed up the process.

So, if the Product is dispatched by Speed Post and the buyer raises a dispute, there is no way a Seller would be able to provide a POD.

Infact in the new scenario, sellers will have to use only reliable couriers with online tracking and time assured delivery schedules. You can read my next post about this.

Hi trust.deals,

I agree with you that "Getting down to the ground and doing things on your own is TOTALLY DIFFERENT".

Here is a food for thought:
A change is normally not easy...However, if these new changes brings a sea change in how our buyers perceive buying from eBay and believe that eBay is the best online destination...If this increased trust on the site, coupled with the fantastic deals and variety that our sellers provide to our buyers, leads to increased sales for our sellers, is this change worth it?

At eBay we recognise that our sellers will require lot of support to ensure a smooth change of process. We are completely set to provide as much support as required (example - phone support becomes 7 days a week). However, we also believe that this change will help our sellers in increasing their eBay business.

Warm regards,
Sapana

Hi cochinmall,

To answer some of the questions posted by you:

How can the seller know for which product the amount has being received?

The new My PaisaPay will give you all the details you require about various transactions. At the end of the month, you wil also get a monthly invoice for reconcillation puropse. It is a failry detailed invoice and should cover all your requirements. Nevertheless, if you will need more information, the phone support will be at your service.


How paisapay is going to transfer the amount into our bank account?

PaisaPay will use the NEFT (national electronics fund transfer) system to transfer money in your bank account. Most banks are implementing NEFT in all branches. If your branch is NEFT enabled, we will be shortly adding it to the list. If it is not NEFT enabled, then as soon as it gets NEFT enabled, we will add it to our list.

Please feel free to post for more questions.

Regards,
Sapana

snrama,
Please! Do you ever check the dictionary before coming to conclusions.
Here's what dictionary.com has to say:
buster
noun

an informal form of address for a man; "Say, fellow, what are you doing?"; "Hey buster, what's up?"
