Marketing Services and Other Revenues

Marketing services and other revenues increased $65.3 million, or 7%, in 2009 compared to 2008, and represented 12% of total net revenues in both 2009 and 2008. The increase in marketing services and other revenues during 2009 was due primarily to interest income and from the inclusion of fees generated from our Bill Me Later portfolio of receivables from loans (acquired November 2008) and a revenue increase from our Classifieds business, primarily attributable to Den Blå Avis and BilBasen (acquired October 2008). These increases were partially offset by a decrease in Shopping.com revenue related to the impact of rule changes made in the third quarter of 2008 by third-party search engines that adversely affected click-though traffic to retailers from our Shopping.com website and reduced associated fees, as well as a decline in interest income earned on certain PayPal customer account balances resulting primarily from decreased interest rates.

Marketing services and other revenues increased $195.5 million, or 25%, in 2008 compared to 2007 and represented 12% of total net revenues in 2008 compared to 10% of total net revenues in 2007. Marketing services and other revenues growth was due primarily to an increase in text and graphical advertising revenue and an increase in classifieds revenue, partially offset by a decline in Shopping.com revenue due to the impact of rule changes made by third-party search engines noted above. Additionally, a decline in interest rates reduced interest earned on certain U.S. PayPal customer account balances, which negatively impacted revenue growth in 2008. The decrease in interest earned on certain U.S. PayPal customer account balances was partially offset by interest income from our Bill Me Later portfolio of receivables from loans.

Marketing Services and Other Revenues

Marketing services and other revenues decreased $6.4 million, or 3%, during the first quarter of 2009 compared to the same period of the prior year, and represented 12% of total net revenues during the first quarter of 2009 compared to 11% of total net revenues during the first quarter of 2008. The decline in marketing services and other revenues was due primarily to a decrease in Shopping.com revenue related to the impact of rule changes made by third-party search engines that adversely affected click-though traffic to retailers from our Shopping.com website and reduced associated fees. Additionally, a decline in interest rates reduced interest earned on certain PayPal customer account balances. These decreases were partially offset by interest income generated from our Bill Me Later loan portfolio (acquired on November 7, 2008) and an increase in our Classifieds business primarily attributable to Den Blå Avis and BilBasen (acquired on October 6, 2008).
