This error is coming directly from eBay:

"It appears you are offering a payment method that is not permitted in the eBay marketplace. Buyers have a wide variety of choices when deciding how to pay sellers. Most payment methods offer a high degree of safety and convenience, however, a few simply are not appropriate for the eBay marketplace. Based on safety concerns and input from the Community, eBay established an Accepted Payments Policy that clarifies eBay's position on payment methods. Please revise your listing by removing the non-permitted payment method."

 

What does it mean?

Certain payment methods that you have mentioned for your listing are not allowed by eBay. You can learn more about what payment methods are acceptable and which ones are not by following this link: https://www.ebay.com/help/policies/payment-policies/accepted-payments-policy?id=4269

Here is an excerpt of the guideline:


What needs to be done?

You must remove the unacceptable payment method from your template or listing. You should check all of the following:

  1. The template - did you place this information as part of the design?

  2. The listing description - is the payment information part of the description text?

  3. The payment policy - make sure to check the business policy details on eBay.

Once you've removed the non-compliant payment method, you will then be able to continue working on your listings :)
