Link your site to eBay

If you have your own web page, you can use a "right now on eBay" button (the "Button") to link your visitors to the eBay home page.


To use the Button you must first email us at Trademarks@eBay.com with the following information:
  1. Your full name
  2. Company name (if applicable)
  3. Your address, or if you are acting on behalf of a company, then the company's address
  4. Your telephone number, or if you are acting on behalf of a company, then the company's telephone number and your personal extension
  5. Email address for you and the company
  6. The exact URL to the page on which the Button will appear
  7. Brief description of your website (please provide business area, function and market niche, etc. but do not provide any information that you would consider proprietary or confidential)
  8. In your email, please also include the following statement, confirming you have read and agree to the terms of the Link License Agreement:

    "I have read the eBay Link License Agreement in its entirety and agree to be bound by its terms and conditions. If I am acting on behalf of a company, I confirm that I have the authority to act on behalf of the company and that the company agrees to be bound by its terms and conditions of the eBay Link License Agreement. I understand that I do not have authorization to use the Button until eBay provides me and/or my company with a written permission by reply email."



If your request is approved, you will receive a confirmation email from Trademarks@eBay.com including instructions for installing the Button on your site.

At that point, you must agree to eBay's "Link Agreement". Use of the Buttons will constitute your agreement to the terms described below.
