We handle the marketing, you just list.
Your job is to grow great livestock and take clear photos. Ours is putting those listings in front of thousands of reef hobbyists and potential buyers.
Active Promotion, Every Week
This is the work we do so you don’t have to.
Social Media
We share new drops, ending-soon auctions and standout pieces across our social channels, aimed squarely at reef keepers.
Email Campaigns
Regular newsletters highlight fresh listings, featured sellers and upcoming live sales to buyers who opted in.
Featured Placements
Our homepage, category pages and spotlight banner rotate through great listings and sellers.
Live Sale Promotion
We announce scheduled live shows ahead of time and remind buyers when you go live.
Search-Friendly Listings
Clean listing pages and category structure help buyers find you through search.
Community
Our forum brings hobbyists together to talk builds, care and buying tips — and discover sellers.
List. We promote. You get paid.
List
Drag in photos, add a title and a price. Quick List fills in the category and the rest of the details.
We Promote
Your listing goes into our social posts, emails, category pages and featured rows.
You Get Paid
Buyers bid or buy, you charge their saved card and ship with tracking, and your earnings are released when your claim window ends after delivery.
Built to Be Trusted
Fair for sellers, safe for buyers.
Secure Payments
Checkout runs through established payment processors — we never see full card numbers.
Clear Fees
5% commission plus a card processing fee (currently 2.9% + 30¢ via Stripe). 0% commission for your first 30 days and on live-show sales (the card processing fee still applies). No hidden charges.
Seller Support
A real team to help with listings, disputes and shipping questions.
Fair Policies
Published shipping and DOA rules that protect both sides of every sale.
Our Fees
5% commission + card processing (2.9% + 30¢) — no listing fees, no monthly fees.
Standard Commission
A flat 5% of each item you sell.
Your First 30 Days
No commission for 30 days after you register, then 5% automatically.
Live-Show Sales
Items sold during an AquaBidz live show carry no commission.
Card Processing
Passed through on every order, including your free first 30 days and live-show sales, and shared between sellers when a buyer checks out from several stores.
Example: on a $25 order, you pay $1.25 commission (5% of the item) + $1.03 card processing (2.9% of $25 + 30¢). Featured Listings and Featured Seller spotlights are optional paid add-ons.
