In April 1998, we reincorporated in Delaware, and in September 1998, we completed the initial public offering of our common stock. Our principal executive offices are located at 2145... More

- Tuesday, January 15, 1:43 PM Having just trimmed headcount in an effort to streamline, PayPal (EBAY) has begun poaching tech talent, as new chief David Marcus continues putting his stamp on the payments giant. Microsoft SOA strategy head Koby Avital is PayPal's new VP of Architecture and Infrastructure, Box engineering VP Arnold Goldberg has been hired to work on technology for small businesses, and DreamWorks' Ryan Grannard has been hired to build internal cloud services. "In years past, we’ve grown too conservatively," says PayPal CTO James Barresse. (NCR deal) Comment! [Tech, Consumer]
- Tuesday, January 15, 9:53 AM PayPal (EBAY) and point-of-sale hardware king NCR are joining forces in an attempt to challenge Square and its meteoric rise. PayPal will be offered as a payment option at restaurants supporting NCR's Mobile Pay app (works with NCR's Aloha systems), and PayPal's own apps will handle payments at NCR-supporting restaurants. Given NCR's systems are used by half of all major U.S. retail chains, the tie-up could easily be expanded. Square, for its part, is seeing good uptake for its Wallet solution, which supports Pay With Square. (yesterday's deals) Comment! [Tech]
- Monday, January 14, 10:08 AM PayPal (EBAY -1.1%) expands its brick-and-mortar presence with new agreements with retailers including Dollar General and RadioShack that will allow customers to use their PayPal accounts to pay for purchases at stores. The latest round of deals brings the number of national retailers using the company's payment system up to 23. Comment! [Consumer]
- Thursday, January 10, 9:27 AM Flash sales on e-commerce websites grew twice as fast as regular online sales, according to industry insiders. Market leader Gilt Group showed a 30% in its flash sales business this year while Rue La La saw a 50% hike. Though the overall sales in the sector still pare in comparison to online giants such as Amazon (AMZN) and eBay (EBAY), it's a trend worth watching. Comment! [Consumer]
- Tuesday, January 8, 6:09 PM ChannelAdvisor clients selling on Amazon (AMZN) and eBay (EBAY) saw major growth slowdowns in December, though growth rates are still impressive: Amazon's same-store sales (SSS) growth fell to 29.8% from 43.7% in November, and eBay's to 22.2% from 27.4%. comScore has also reported of a December slowdown. Google (GOOG) is seeing a migration in e-commerce ad dollars from paid search to a revamped Google Shopping, something that could lead to ad price volatility: SSS for search traffic fell 18%, while comparison shopping rose 15%.

- Tuesday, January 8, 10:19 AM eBay (EBAY -0.7%) has restructured its mobile division. Steve Yankovich, the division's former chief, is now eBay's "VP of innovation and new ventures." Replacing him is former mobile product management chief Kevin Hurst. The restructuring comes as eBay refreshes its very popular iPhone/iPad apps to support auto-complete and the ability to make purchases without registering for eBay/PayPal accounts. eBay has been predicting it will report at least $10B in mobile Marketplaces transactions for 2012. Comment! [Tech]
- Thursday, January 3, 2:48 PM Having launched a same-day home delivery trial, eBay (EBAY -2.3%) is now experimenting with home pick-up for Marketplaces sales. Vendors using the service have sale items picked up by an eBay employee who takes them to a "selling assistant." The assistant, in turn, sells the items on eBay's site for a 25% cut. eBay is also trialing a service where users drop off a bag of clothing and electronics at a mall, and are offered a set price for the bag by a seller following evaluation. 3 Comments [Tech, Consumer]
- Wednesday, January 2, 10:50 AM Canaccord Genuity analyst Michael Graham reiterates his Hold rating on eBay (EBAY +2.5%) while adding $6 to his price target on shares to take it to $56. After looking at the potential for a breakout in PayPal payments, Graham acknowledges EPS could grow to as much as $3 a share this year. 1 Comment [Consumer]
- Thursday, December 27, 2012, 2:31 PM Wal-Mart (WMT) might be joining the same-day delivery battle: hungry to gain ground against Amazon (AMZN), the retail giant is testing a same-day service that relies on its stores, costs users $10, and features a 4-hour window. Google, eBay, and many small online retailers are also experimenting with same-day, in spite of the logistics and cost challenges. Amazon remains coy about the extent of its ambitions. "How much time are you saving by not going to the store? People want it now, they want it fast," says an eBay spokeswoman. 3 Comments [Tech, Consumer]
- Wednesday, December 26, 2012, 9:57 AM Amazon (AMZN -1%) and eBay (EBAY -0.7%) slip a little after MasterCard's SpendingPulse tracker reports total holiday season retail sales rose just 0.7% Y/Y, and online sales a mere 8.4%. Also, ITG Research says its checks indicate Amazon's Q4 is tracking somewhat below a prior forecast. comScore issued rosier figures for online sales on Monday. 1 Comment [Tech, Consumer]
- Monday, December 24, 2012, 1:39 PM U.S. e-commerce sales somehow rose 53% Y/Y for the week of Dec. 17-21, says comScore - the research firm attributes this surge to free shipping offers, extended promotions, and retailer promises to have items delivered by Christmas. As a result, sales for the full holiday season are now up 16% Y/Y, better than the 13% reported last week, though still slightly below a prior forecast of 17%. Amazon's (AMZN) Q4 should benefit from the sales boost, but did the company sacrifice margins along the way? 9 Comments [Tech, Consumer]
- Friday, December 21, 2012, 1:51 PM eBay's (EBAY) mobile efforts extend to building apps and developing in-store mobile promotions for bricks-and-mortar retailers such as Macy's (M) and Toys 'R' Us, via its GSI Commerce unit. Though eBay competes with regular retailers, GSI's mobile solutions give the company a chance to profit from transactions that would happen offline anyway. There could also be synergies with PayPal, which is quickly expanding its offline presence. (more on eBay/mobile: I, II, III) Comment! [Tech, Consumer]
- Thursday, December 20, 2012, 12:59 PM eBay (EBAY) is hoping to win the business of gold (and silver and platinum) bugs through a new partnership with bullion exchange APMEX. The eBay-hosted APMEX Bullion Center provides listings on 200 precious metal products. Meanwhile, Gartner is predicting 1/3 of consumer brands will integrate payment options into their mobile apps by 2015 - that should benefit PayPal, whose mobile volumes are soaring in part because typing a PayPal login is more convenient on a phone than typing in credit card info. 1 Comment [Tech, Consumer]
- Thursday, December 20, 2012, 12:36 PM Retail real estate brokers report that more Web shops are inquiring about renting space as they mull setting up brick-and-mortar stores. Not burdened with older software and cash registers or the necessity of stocking every product in their stores, Web retailers can get off easy on costs. eBay (EBAY +0.6%) is into the physical game, as is Bonobos and Gap's (GPS -1.7%) Piperlime. But still all quiet on the Amazon (AMZN +0.4%) front. Comment! [Consumer]
- Wednesday, December 19, 2012, 7:10 PM As Facebook halts a mobile ad network trial, eBay (EBAY) says it's giving up on selling ads within its mobile apps. "It's not worth it," says Marketplaces chief Devin Wenig. eBay is promising $10B in mobile Marketplaces transactions this year - the fees on those transactions should easily surpass whatever revenue it could produce from aggressively selling display ads. (comScore mobile figures) 1 Comment [Tech]
- Wednesday, December 19, 2012, 6:16 PM Following a "prolonged post-Cyber Monday lull," U.S. holiday season e-commerce sales are only up 13% Y/Y, says comScore - that's below a prior forecast of 17%, in spite of 28% Black Friday growth. Recent ChannelAdvisor data also points to a slowdown for Amazon (AMZN), eBay (EBAY), and others. The numbers come as RBC lifts its PT on Amazon to $300 on a belief (similar to Bernstein's) the company's fulfillment spending binge is ending, and that 2013 free cash flow could amount to $13.44/share.
