Bank deposit

Allows the buyer to deposit the purchase amount directly into your account.

Provide the buyer with your account details after your contact details have been exchanged through Trading Post.

Cash on pick up/delivery

The buyer pays for the item on collection.

Cash on delivery payments can be made by:

• cash
• bank cheque or money order, or
• another method you negotiate with the buyer at the time of purchase.

Australia Post offers a Cash on Delivery service for a fee. Visit www.australiapost.com.au for details.

Bank cheque or Money order

The buyer organises a bank cheque or money order payable to you for the purchase amount.

Bank cheques are available from banks and money orders are available from Post Offices.
A small fee is usually charged for each.

Personal cheque

The buyer writes a cheque payable to you for the purchase amount.

This can be convenient for buyers with a cheque account. However, the transaction takes longer because you must wait for the cheque before shipping the item.

Escrow service

A third party that:

• holds the goods on the seller's behalf, and
• receives payment from the buyer.

Western Union or Money Gram

Trading Post explicitly bans sellers from offering money transfer services as a payment option. Avoid using these services for any online selling.

See Accepted Payment Methods for more details.

Other methods

You can specify other payment methods or extra terms for receiving payment for your item, however they may be removed if:

• they breach the Trading Post® Accepted Payment Methods Policy or other Trading Post® advertising or product rules, or
• Trading Post deems them inappropriate.
