Top-rated sellers are PowerSellers who consistently provide the best buying experiences to their customers. Whether you have large volume sales or smaller volume, you can be a Top-rated seller.

What are the requirements?

To become a Top-rated seller you need to:

• Opt-in to the PowerSeller program. Learn about PowerSeller requirements and benefits.

• Have at least 100 transactions and $3,000 in sales during the last 12 months.

• Meet the requirements for detailed seller ratings (DSRs), including a positive Feedback score of at least 98%.

  • If you've had more than 400 transactions during the previous 3 months, the percentage of 1s and 2s must be below 0.50% for each detailed seller rating for the past 3 months.

  • If you've had fewer than 400 transactions over the previous 3 months, but more than 400 annual transactions, the percentage of 1s and 2s must be below 0.50% for each detailed seller rating for the past 12 months.

  •  If you have less than 400 transactions in the last 12 months :

    - You need 3 or fewer instances of 1s and 2s to be a Top-rated seller.

    - You need 4 or fewer instances of 1s and 2s to be a PowerSeller.
    
    

  Note: To accurately measure your overall performance, we only count 1s and 2s if they come from two or more buyers within any given evaluation period. If you have more than 400 transactions, three or more buyers must leave low detailed seller ratings before they are counted.
