Occasionally, eBay sends discount coupons to members, who can use them to pay for items on the site. The coupons can only be used if the seller accepts PayPal.
Step
Some people believe that you can easily obtain eBay discount coupons and codes from the Internet. However, this is not true. EBay only sends out discount coupons to a select group of its registered users at a time; any code is programmed to work only for those users.
Step
Go to your "My eBay" page and make sure your contact information is up to date. Select the "Account" tab and choose "Notification Preferences."
Step
Scroll to "Promotions and Surveys" and select "Show." Put a check mark in the box for "General email promotions" and then click on "Save."

You can only use one eBay discount coupon per transaction. They usually have short expiration dates, so keep a close eye on the date before it expires. If you have any problem using the coupon, contact a PayPal customer service representative for help.
