eBay Giving Works is a program which enables sellers to list items on eBay and donate part or all of the final sale price to nonprofit organizations. Unique search and listing features help sellers build business while supporting their favorite causes. Since 2000, more than $81 million has been raised for charity from listings sold on eBay worldwide.

eBay says that Giving Works listings tend to sell at higher final prices, because buyers are more willing to purchase and often pay more for items that benefit a nonprofit. Buyer trust and loyalty is enhanced by aligning with a cause, and sellers receive a receipt for their tax-deductible donations.

Charity listings also receive additional visibility through a specialized search functionality reserved exclusively for eBay Giving Works listings; stand out with a distinctive charity icon in the title bar of the listing both in search results and on the view item page, and donation information is displayed in the item description.

If an eBay Giving Works listing sells, it will automatically qualifies the seller for the eBay Giving Works Fee Credit Policy.

eBay has selected MissionFish to power eBay Giving Works. MissionFish is a nonprofit with five years of experience helping organizations fundraise through ecommerce. Their valuable service and support includes: managing the nonprofit directory for eBay Giving Works; verifying that nonprofits are eligible for this program; collecting and disbursing sellers’ donations; providing sellers with tax receipts; and tracking sellers’ donations online.
