GROWTH PLANS/SPECIAL FEATURES
EBay, Inc. is an online auction venue that brings together millions of buyers and sellers every day locally, nationally and internationally through its array of web sites. EBay provides online marketplaces for the sale of goods and services, online payments services and online communication offerings. It currently has three primary businesses: the marketplaces, payments and communications. The marketplaces segment enables online commerce through a variety of platforms, including the traditional eBay.com platform and the company’s other online platforms, such as its classifieds websites, as well as Half.com, Rent.com, Shopping.com and StubHub. The wide array of web sites that comprise the firms’ marketplaces segment brings together millions of buyers and sellers every day on a local, national and international basis. The payments segment, which consists of the firms’ global payments platform called PayPal, enables individuals and businesses to securely, easily and quickly send and receive payments online. PayPal offers three types of accounts: personal, business and premier. A new account holder typically opens an account to send money for an eBay purchase or a purchase on another website, a payment for services rendered, or a payment to an individual in lieu of cash. Allowing new account holders to join the network when they make or receive payments encourages PayPal’s natural, user-driven growth. The communications segment, which consists of Skype, enables VoIP communications between Skype users and provides low-cost connectivity to traditional fixed-line and mobile telephones. Skype seeks to set the standard in providing new and easy ways to stay in touch over the Internet. In October 2008, the company announced its intent to cut roughly 10% of jobs. eBay also announced plans to acquire online payments firm Bill Me Later and two Danish web sites dba.dk and bilbasen.dk.

eBay offers its employees adoption assistance, a pet insurance plan, tuition reimbursement, employee training courses, referral bonuses and on-site services such as dry cleaning and chiropractic care. The firm also provides a wide range of insurance benefits such as medical, dental, vision, life and accidental death and dismemberment, short and long term disability and business travel accident insurance.
