eBayeBay was the first online marketplace. Today, it’s a household name. A regular feature in lists of best loved brands, it connects millions of buyers and sellers, helping customers to find the item they’re looking for from its 1.6 billion listings. With 185 million buyers in 190 markets, trade is fast. The UK website sells a bottle of fragrance every 19 seconds, 3 sets of false eyelashes every minute, and last year 90 lipsticks flew off the virtual shelves every hour. eBay is purely a marketplace.
We don’t stock or own merchandise, but instead we partner with you to give you the global platform to grow your business, whether you are an SMB, a brand, a retailer, a wholesaler or a distributor. By partnering with sellers in this way, ebay.co.uk has helped hundreds of thousands of UK entrepreneurs over its 25-year history. As a hub of retail in the UK, the marketplace also continues to welcome top brands to the site – including Avon, L’Oreal, Dyson and more.
eBay also makes it easy for customers to give to charitable organisations. Using eBay for Charity, sellers can donate a portion of their sales and buyers can shop while supporting their favourite causes – adding to the funds that eBay.co.uk has raised for UK charities to date.
