I wan wondering about the new "accepted forms of payment" box in the classifieds. In mine it states,
Quote:
Payments Accepted-Cash
Paypal/Dwolla/etc.
Money order/Bank check

My payment policy is to accept only PayPal and Postal Money Orders, and I've always stated it in the classifieds sig line.Granted, cash is accepted for local sales, small purchases, but not as an official payment method.
The new box seems to create confusion, IMHO. Is there any way to customize that box to reflect a seller's individual preferences?
Thanks!

Several people asked for Dwolla to be added and that was my immediate solution to indicate a seller accepts one of various online payment methods.

If the preference is for it to be a totally separate item, I can split it out.

Feedback welcome.

Separating the payment options would be nice so the seller can indicate exactly what his preferences are.

I split Dwolla out into its own checkbox on the ad/edit form & payment line in the ads.

In order to add Dwolla as a payment type, you will need to edit your ad(s), one by one.

If anyone wants Dwolla bulk added to all of their ads, I can do that for you. PM me.

I added Venmo as a payment option today as the suggestion of user Brian W.

Thanks Brian.

To add this you have to edit the ad to check the "Venmo" box.
Each ad, one by one.
If anyone wants all of their ads updated, PM or email me and I can update ALL of your ads at once very quickly from my end.

You can list other payment types or things you have for trade in the description of the ad.

I added Zelle today too.

Thanks to a member for the suggestion

You can edit an ad to include it in your ad as a payment type.

If you have a ton of ads and don't want to have to edit each one:
Feel free to email or PM me and I can bulk update them all from my end
