How to Link Your eBay and Facebook Accounts

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• eBay Account

In the search box type eBay Marketplace and search then click on the eBay Marketplace link in the results (alternately you can go directly to this page by using the link below).

2. Once on the eBay Marketplace page click on the "Allow" button then on the next screen click on the "Link your eBay account to Facebook" button. You will now be brought to an eBay signin screen. Enter your User ID and Password and click Sign In.

3. Your account will now link and you'll be brought to the eBay Marketplace on Facebook main page where you can checkout your friends' eBay activity and change your settings.

Tips & Warnings

• Be sure to check out the Options page where you can indicate which of your eBay activities you would like to share with your friends! (ie, you might want them to see what you are selling but now what you are buying or auctions you did not win)
• Facebook does not save your eBay password. This process is just your letting eBay know that Facebook has your permission link to the information you specify information.
