Listing Live Auctions

You can create a Live Auction listing from the website or iOS App.

Steps

  1. Go to your Seller Dashboard

  2. Tap 'New Listing' / 'List Item'

  3. Select 'Live Auction' if you would like to create a Live Auction listing to run during your live.

  4. Add Images and/or Videos: (you can rearrange photos by pressing on an image and dragging it to your desired order)

  5. Provide listing details:

  • Item Name

  • Description

  • Starting Price

  • Optional: Add Variants

  • Auction Settings

    • Select Select your Live Auction duration (how long your auction will run during the live).

    • Allow Pre-Bids:

      • Turning on Pre-Bids allows users to bid before your live starts. Please remember to load your Live Auction listings into your scheduled stream, as that allows users to see them and start pre-bidding. See the pre-loading guide.

  • Shipping (Fulfillment)

  • Collections:

    • Select which collection(s) your item will be listed under. Collections are created by the marketplace owner.

  • Visibility:

    • If you want to pre-load your Live Auction listing into your scheduled live but do not want users to see it until you "Move it to stage" during your stream, you can set the visibility to private. You can also edit the listing later to make it public.

  • Earnings Calculator:

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

  1. Publish Listing!

Reminders

  • Creating a Live Auction listing does not automatically load it into your scheduled live. Be sure to pre-load your listing(s) into your scheduled live (see pre-load guide). If you have Pre-Bids turned on, your Live Auction listings will become available for Pre-Bidding as soon as you load them into your live. (Pre-Bids open 7 days before the live auction.)

  • Share your scheduled stream with friends and on social media to give them the opportunity to check out your listings and place pre-bids or max bids. They can pre-bid up until the point that you run the listing in the live.

  • If you are a seller in multiple marketplaces, you can control which marketplace you are listing in by tapping the marketplace name at the top of the listing flow.
