PayPal giving fund

Can any charity out there help me with an issue regarding invoices for PayPal giving fund? As a charity we did not enrol in this but we are receiving invoices. Now I am unable to list items due to invoices not being paid. What has happened? No one is helping us and we are losing money. Why have we been enrolled to this? Please can any one help?

PayPal giving fund

This seems to apply to your account -

 

Information for charitable organisations

If you’re registered as an eBay charity seller, you’ll pay a final value fee at a special charity rate. Your fees will be deducted and the net proceeds from your sales will be sent directly to the bank account associated with your eBay account.

If you’d like to increase your fundraising potential, you can set up your charity to receive donations at checkout and through our eBay for Charity website.

 

Are you registered as a charity seller, as that seems to be necessary to have payments to bank, without involving paypal.

As you have been invoiced it would appear that as far as ebay are aware, you are just selling for a charity, ebay would  invoice, you pay invoice and then they pay you, which is unnecessary and a long way round.

Your listings says that all net proceeds go to charity, I believe this happens via PayPal invoices.  You need to read up how it works.
