| Selling Online
The basic requirement for being able to sell online is to be able to accept online payments. For this, you need to add an online payment account such as PayPal, Moneybookers, or Worldpay on the Seller's Preferences page (my Closo > Manage > Seller's Preferences). Once you have that added, customers can pay you online with their debit and credit cards.
If you want your ad to be purchased by users online, then, you need to provide the shipping costs for the destinations you are willing to ship to on the Ad Listing Page. If you don’t specify a given region, Closo will not allow the buyers to add your item to their shopping cart.
