We would like to inform you that there is a new process to access your eBay account which should improve your sniping reliability.
Your sniper account must be separate from your eBay account.
You have to link your eBay account to the sniper, otherwise your snipes will fail.

Linking the sniper to your eBay account.
1. Login to the sniper using https://www.myibidder.com/main/ebay
2. Click "Sign-in" next to "Link eBay account"
3. You will be redirect to eBay page where you have to login and click "Agree"
4. Once you get back to the sniper, you should see "Linked" next to "Status". That confirms your link

On some eBay accounts the step #3 is done automatically and you will be redirected back to Myibidder showing your account is linked. In this case you will not see the "Agree" button as the linking process is done automatically by eBay.

After this is all complete, you can use the service (including mobile apps) as you would normally do.
Just make sure you always login using your sniper's username and password to the sniper, not your eBay account.

For those who have 2FA enabled in their eBay accounts and get prompted for security token:
If you don't have the physical token, you can temporary disable 2FA during linking process.
You can re-enable 2FA after linking is completed.

If you can't access your sniper's account.

You can try one of the older passwords to see if you can access it.
If it did not work, you need to reset your sniper's password here:
https://www.myibidder.com/login/reset

If you don't want to recover your original sniper account, you can create a new one here:
https://www.myibidder.com/login/signup
Don't forget to link it to eBay after the creation (located under "Profile" in the sniper).

Any questions, please feel free to contact support with your username:

It does not unlink on its own. You probably did not complete the link or maybe linked already.
Please contact support directly with your username if you need assistance.

You mean the Web version still shows that you need to link it? If yes, please make sure you use the same username to login. Seems like you have more than one account and may be confused between them.

I have the same issue of getting the "must link" message box in the stand-alone program on Windows and it will not snipe. I have linked my ebay account to my ibidder account in my profile on the ibidder website. There is nowhere in the PC program to enter any info other than the ebay login info.
I used Myibidder on the PC for years with NEVER a problem, Now, all of a sudden it will not place snipes. PLEASE assist.

Sinserely, John

grand500,
You keep sending me multiple messages with the same question.
Please don't do it. It will not speed up the response, but may add extra confusion for you.

Please feel free to include a screenshot if you could not find the button.

The notice is about linking your eBay account. It has nothing to do with the key.

Hi There,

Mybidder account was not linked so I clicked the re-link and then entered my E-bay user name and password then grant MyBidder access. However this then results in an e-mail from E-bay saying that they have locked my account due to security issues......it then becomes an endless loop of unlocking my E-bay account then re linking MyBidder then the same thing all over again.

Please could you advise the solution?

Thanx and regards
cangus-uk

cangus-uk,
Please avoid creating multiple tickets and posting several topics with the same question. That will not speed up the response, but may add some confusion for you.
As I mentioned in the ticket, this is between you and eBay only. They blocked your account, not the sniper.
Please contact eBay directly to find out the actual "security issues" they have with your eBay account. They'll be able to help.

If you don't want to authorize the sniper to access your eBay account, that means the sniper can't access it.
You decide to give authorization or not.
