| How can the seller send invoice to a customer? |
| After a item is sold or an offer is accepted, the seller must send invoice to the customer(s), from 'my Dashboard (Seller Area) > Items Sold' or 'my Dashboard (Seller Area) > Offers Accepted'. To send invoice to the customer(s), click on 'Send Invoice'. If the item has shipping & handling (S&H) charges and insurance charges defined in it, they will automatically be filled in. However, the seller can change these values before sending invoice. Please make sure that all values are correct before clicking on 'Send Invoice'. An invoice can not be changed after it has been sent. |
| Till the seller sends an invoice to the buyer, the buyer will see auto-generated invoice. The invoice will clearly be marked 'This is an auto-generated and estimated invoice. Seller has not sent an invoice for this transaction yet.' and may not be correct. After the seller sends an invoice, both the seller and buyer(s) can review it by clicking on 'See Invoice'. However, the seller can not change the invoice after sending it. |
| How can the seller enable buyers to pay directly from invoice using online payment systems (PayPal & Google Checkout)? |
| To accept online payments from buyers, select the online payment systems you would like to accept while listing/editing your item for sale. To enable buyers to pay with PayPal and/or Google Checkout directly from invoice with a click, you must enter your online payment account information for PayPal (e-mail address) and/or Google Checkout (Merchant ID) in your profile ('my Dashboard (my Account) > Profile') on KidMax. You can add/update this in your profile anytime. Changes made in your profile to your online payment account information will apply immediately to all of your invoices to buyers for your listings which accept those online payment systems. |
| As an example, if you have specified your PayPal and Google Checkout account information in your profile and selected both PayPal and Checkout as acceptable modes of online payment for your listing, buyers will see following buttons at the bottom of all the invoices for that listing: |
make payments with PayPal
Note: all charges other than S&H charges will appear as Subtotal in PayPal. |
 |
make payments with Google Checkout
Note: total charge will appear as Subtotal in Google Checkout. |
 |
|
|
| When the buyer clicks on one of these buttons, he/she will be redirected to the website of the corresponding online payment system. The online payment system will prompt the buyers to pay to the account you (the seller) have specified in your profile on KidMax. Please carefully review the rules for accepting payments with your online payment system accounts before enabling this for your customers. |
| Note: You are not required to enter your online payment account information in your profile in order to accept online payments. If online payment account information is not available in your profile, buyers will simply not be able to pay directly from invoice. You will have to e-mail them your account information in order to accept payments. |
| How can the buyer review the invoice for a purchase? |
| After purchasing an item or winning an auction or accepting an offer, the buyer can review invoice from 'my Dashboard (Buyer Area) > Items Bought/Won' or 'my Dashboard (Buyer Area) > Offers Accepted'. To review an invoice, click on 'See Invoice'. Till the seller sends an invoice to the buyer, the buyer will see auto-generated invoice. The invoice will clearly be marked 'This is an auto-generated and estimated invoice. Seller has not sent an invoice for this transaction yet.' and may not be correct. Buyer must pay the indicated amount to the seller in order to complete the transaction. |
