On Wednesday, eBay launched a beta test version of eBay Bucks, a program that lets participants earn a 2% reward on certain items they buy through the site and pay for using eBay's online payment service, PayPal. Rewards come quarterly as gift certificates, which can be used to buy other items through eBay within 30 days.
The program is in a closed beta for now; eBay is inviting participants at random.
