Before you publish
- Make sure the company seller profile has already been verified for the categories you want to trade in.
- Only list goods you lawfully own or are authorised to sell.
- Use the approved company seller profile and keep the business registration, bank confirmation, and category compliance documents current.
- Choose the exact livestock route so that breed, gender, age class, and lot information match the listing.
- Be accurate about animal condition, health information to the best of your knowledge, location, and any transport restrictions.
Listing flow
- Sign in with an approved company seller profile and start a new live animal listing.
- Use the same category flow as the buyer marketplace and the public "What's on offer" tree, selecting each next level until you reach the final commodity, breed, class, or product node.
- Upload clear images, add a factual description, and make sure quantity, age, class, condition, and location are accurate.
- Set the auction details, opening amount, and reserve price if you want reserve protection. Reserve prices may be hidden from buyers.
- Publish the listing and monitor platform notifications, buyer responses, and any follow-up documentation requests.
What happens after listing
- Your listing can appear in the buyer marketplace and on the public browse pages, but public visitors cannot place bids from the public site.
- Buyer and seller communication should stay on the platform so that records, transport discussions, and admin oversight remain in one place.
- Winning buyers receive an invoice and the seller receives a seller invoice after a successful sale.
- If reserve protection is used and the reserve is not met, the lot can close on a no-sale.
- Auction bids are binding, the default live window runs for 15 minutes, and bids placed in the last 5 minutes extend the timer by 10 minutes.
- If the reserve is not met, the system can close the lot on a no-sale and notify the affected parties.
