NOTE: eBay's restriction on contact information is bundled up into this policy as well. If you receive a notification from eBay saying your listings have contact information, this could very well be non compliant links. 

Starting from September 2017 eBay will only permit links to the following domains - 

  • eBay pages

  • Product videos (reviews, product demonstration or installation)

  • Freight shipping services

  • Other legally required information

In case your listings contain links to the above authorized domains, you need to make sure these links comply with two technological requirements - 

  1. Links must include a target attribute -
    Include a target=”_blank” attribute.

  2. Links must lead to an HTTPS address (not HTTP)
