eBay is testing a new option in eBay Checkout on eBay.co.uk that will enable buyers to make a donation ("Give a Pound") to a featured charity when they're buying. The feature only works with PayPal payments. Donations are collected and delivered by MissionFish, eBay's registered charity partner. The £1 donation will appear as separate transactions paid to MissionFish in buyer's PayPal accounts.
eBay said users in the UK have raised over £6 million for good causes through the eBay for Charity program, which lets sellers donate a portion of their sales to the charity of their choice.
