Pre-Approved Funding: YouLend and eBay Germany Launch Partnership to Finance Sellers

YouLend, the world’s leading embedded financing platform, has  entered a strategic partnership with eBay Germany to offer sellers fast, flexible access to capital. 

What makes this partnership unique: sellers receive personalised, pre-approved  financing offers, which empower them to know exactly how much financing they are  eligible for before they apply. 

The new solution, called eBay Seller Capital, allows sellers to access up to €2 million  without decision uncertainty, lengthy applications or long waiting times due to  YouLend’s direct integration into the eBay platform. 

A Growth Booster for Sellers and the Marketplace 

This financing partnership follows a clear strategy: enabling seller growth without  barriers. 

“Sellers benefit from a chain reaction: quicker inventory restocks, improved product  listing, or targeted marketing leading to greater visibility, higher sales, and more growth  opportunities — all of which can be financed through YouLend,” says Leonard Strigel,  General Manager Germany at YouLend. “This cycle of funding, growth, and  reinvestment helps increase seller revenues.” 

Proven Success in the UK — Now in Germany 

With its launch in Germany, YouLend is expanding a partnership that has been  successfully running in the UK for over four years. 

“With eBay Seller Capital, we’re expanding access to funding for small and medium sized businesses in Germany,” adds Leonard Strigel. “Traditionally, access to capital  has been slow and complex, especially for online sellers. Our integrated solution  changes that: it’s simple, digital, and reliable.” 

Felix Kristl, General Manager Seller Capital EU at eBay, adds: “Our sellers are the  backbone of our marketplace. With YouLend, we’ve found a partner that delivers real  value, exactly when sellers need capital to take the next step.”
