  • Important Update: eBay's API integrations will be modified to address data handling requirements for select developers. Usernames will be replaced with immutable user IDs, and financial data will be protected for certain users. Learn more here.
  • API License Agreement Update: We have made significant enhancements to our API License Agreement, including detailed data protection measures and compliance with international regulations. Important restrictions have been applied to the use of Restricted APIs and AI content. Developers must review the updated agreement to ensure compliance.

Note: The Client Registration API is not intended for use by developers who have previously registered for a Developer Account on the eBay platform.
The Client Registration API provides Dynamic Client Registration for regulated Third Party Providers (TPPs) who are, or will be, engaged in financial transactions on behalf of individuals domiciled in the EU/UK. This is required by the EU's Second Payment Services Directive (PSD2) which requires all regulated Account Servicing Payment Service Providers (ASPSPs) to provide secure APIs to access account and payment services on behalf of account holders.

A successful registration response returns a HTTP 201 Created status code with a JSON payload [RFC7519] that includes registration information.
