Creating a live auction listing

Creating a live auction listing is simple and can be done by the app or website.

Steps:

• Go to your Seller Dashboard -> Click 'List Item' -> Select 'Auction'

• Images:

  • Take a photo or upload a photo from your camera roll. We recommend not importing more than 5 images at a time.

  • Tap the plus sign to add more photos. To rearrange photos hold down the image and drag it.

• Listing Details:

  • Enter in your Title & Description

  • Variants (optional)

  • Enter Starting Price

  • Set 'Only Available For Live' to ON (this is important, if it's turned off, you'll be creating a multi-day auction and you won't see the ability to turn on pre-bids)

  • Pre-Bids: turn pre-bids on if you want buyers to be able to pre-bid. Check out pre-bid guide for more details.

  • Select Auction Duration: 60 sec, 30 sec, 20 sec, 15 sec, 10 sec.

  • Visibility: if you are a seller in multiple marketplaces, visibility is how you control which marketplace your listing is listed in.

  • Shipping
  • Tags: select the marketplace tags that correspond to the listing.

  • View the breakdown of fees and what you'll earn as the seller.

• List item!

Listing an auction that is "only available for live" does not automatically load it into your scheduled livestream. You will still need to pre-load you listings into your scheduled live. Need help? View the pre-load guide.
