Summary
After creating an account, you need to set it up as a seller account.
To set up a seller account on Production:
https://www.ebay.com/help/selling/getting-paid/registering-seller?id=5226
To set up a seller account on Sandbox:
Sandbox does not go through the verification and validation as the production, since it is a test environment. The easiest way to create and setup an account as a seller account at the same time, use the eBay Sandbox User Registration . If you have already created an account, then you can make use of the API call ValidateTestUserRegistration to set up the account as a seller account.
