04
Review the week
Check cancellations, late deliveries and real profit before adding more products.
This is a suggested learning sequence, not a promise of sales, profit or seller status. Progress depends on demand, your service, selling limits and marketplace requirements.
A routine that travels with you
Less repetitive work. A clearer daily routine.
Set your rules, run your reviewed batches and keep orders and profit in view. Ventrax handles supported repetitive steps; you stay in charge of purchases, buyer support and decisions.

Top Rated is based on your sales history and service, not simply reaching day 90.
01
Build an eligible history
For eBay UK, requirements include an account active for at least 90 days and at least 100 transactions totalling £1,000 with UK and Irish buyers over the past 12 months.
02
Meet the service standards
Delivery performance, defects, unresolved cases and policy compliance also matter. Check your current and projected seller level in Seller Hub.
Top Rated status does not guarantee instant payment. Availability, holds, payout schedules and bank processing can still affect when money reaches you.
