(Cookies Must be enabled to combine multiple methods!)


You MUST do all these steps every time you want eBay cashback!

Step 1: Go to ebay.com and find the item you want to buy. 
(For maximum eBay cashback find an item with free shipping and no tax 
because you don't receive cashback on taxes or shipping charges.) 
Once you have found the item you want, click the "watch this item" link. (login if necessary)

Step 2: Go to bing and do a search for "cheap zune" (Currently a bing search for "cheap zune" offers 8% Cashback on eBay).
Some keywords can offer a higher cashback percentage than others.
I have created a page that shows the best keywords for bing cashback on ebay.

On the bing search results you should see the cashback on ebay ad, click on the ad (You will be taken to ebay). 

Step 3: In the same browser go to mrrebates.com and log in. 
Do a search for ebay on MrRebates. (Clicking the link to the left will do the search)  
on the results page (This is a good page to bookmark) you should see a link that offers 3% cashback on eBay, 
Clicking that link should take you to the ebay homepage again. (The bing cashback banner may not show up 
here but it should show up on the confirm bid page, as explained below.)
 
Step 4: Go to your "my ebay" page (you should still be logged in) (if you are not logged in, try setting 
your security settings to default, close all browser windows and restart the process 
or use a different browser) (I use the latest version of Mozilla Firefox and have never had a problem.)

Step 5: In your "my ebay" click on the listing you clicked to watch.

Step 6: Click the buy it now button again (The confirmation page should still show the 
microsoft bing cashback banner) (IF IT DOESN'T DON'T CONFIRM YOUR PURCHASE, Your bing 
cashback is not being tracked correctly!)  You need to either turn down you security settings and 
restart the process or use a different browser to combine the eBay cashback methods.

If you see the bing cashback banner at the top of the page than it is safe to confirm you bid. 

Step 7: Click to pay for your item and log into PayPal. 
(If you have a rewards card that is not on your PayPal account already, add it at this time.)

Step 8: Change your funding source to your rewards card if you have one and complete your payment.

Step 9: Pay off the balance of the card you just used to avoid interest charges!

Step 10: Enjoy your cashback when you get it!
