Closing of booth - how efficient is bonanza???
Upvote this question 0 Downvote this question

Received another email today, 7/23/16, saying that Bonanza is going to close my booth down on 8/6/16 if I don’t update my payment methods. Well guess what they shut my booth down on 7/15/16 and it is still shut down. Another interesting fact is my visitor count shows visits and items viewed. Now that is rather stranger as when I have searched items on Google and found them then clicked on the links it takes me to my booth but guess what, it says booth on vacation which is what Bonanza did to my booth. How much efficiency is here any more??? Your guess is good as mine.

The efficient thing to do would have been to update your payment method.

I came to Bonanza to sell 8 years ago because I could except money orders & checks so now they decide to change their policy. So I can no longer except the payment method I want. Therefore I can not update my payment method.

Well now my booth is back but probably just until Aug. 5. This has also happened to another seller.

As is with any selling venue, sellers must abide by the rules, policies and terms of use as set out by that selling venue and any changes, updates, etc that may be implemented along the way. It’s their site, their rules, and sellers abide by them, adjust to them, or make the necessary decisions to do what is best for their business.
Bonanza is what it is; not what it was…
whatever will be, will be….

This is an official Bonanza response.

Hi Sasswbe,
Thanks for reaching out to our Bonanza community. I had a look at your account. You do not have a payment processor set up. You need to have a way for folks to pay for your items before you put them online for sale.
If you click on Selling in the top left corner of the page (after you are logged in) you can then click on Booth Settings > Payment Processors. You can add a PayPal or Amazon Payments account there.
That’s it! If you have any other questions or concerns feel free to contact us at support@bonanza.com. Thanks!

I had a payment method selected but Bonanaza deleted it. I came here 8 years ago because I could take money orders & checks. Now I can’t. If I’m going to have to start taking Paypal / Amazon I will go back to eBay where the sales are far superior.
