In a past post I described how BigCrumbs referral structure can make it worth your while to refer people to them. If you’re a seller on eBay I suggest you promote BigCrumbs on your listings.
Generally a message in a prominent place detailing how to get cashback and directing users to BigCrumbs.com. Don’t make it too intrusive as the individual is ultimately there to buy your item.
BigCrumbs doesn’t give a set percentage back of the item amount on eBay purchases but rather they give a percentage of the eBay fee the seller pays back to the purchaser. Since most people who purchase things on eBay have no idea how much sellers pay in fees they probably don’t know exactly how much cashback they’ll get but this usually amounts to 2-3% on most items.
For instance on a $100 item in the “other” category will generally amount to $9.35 in seller fees. Since BigCrumbs pays 35% of the fee back in cashback the purchaser would get $3.27 in cashback. That’s 3.27% cashback! If you referred the person you get 5% of the fee and would get $0.46 which isn’t much but think of it as a small rebate on the seller fee you paid to eBay and the potential for the person to make purchases at many other outlets including eBay in the future.
