We were notified by eBay tonight that they are suspending working with ALL cash back and reward sites effective 6/16. From what we can tell, they think that people will continue to make as many eBay purchases without loyalty sites and so it isn't worth it to pay us for sending sales anymore. This is going to be a really big hit to our business because eBay is statistically the merchant that we have the most sales through. There is absolutely nothing that we can do to get them to keep us. They are shutting out every rewards site until at least October 1. We should be able to keep them on our other non-incentive sites, but if we do not remove them from SR this week, we risk losing any chance of ever working with them again.
Obviously we are shocked that this came out of the blue. We'll leave it up to you the extent to which you do or not not want to shop through them anymore. We'll be pulling down all of our links in the next few days.
