How to use the Classic auction template

The Classic auction template provides a clean, traditional layout to present your lots, specifically designed to highlight your catalogue quickly by condensing the auction timer, description, and lead image into a single row above the fold.


1. Select the template:

  • Log in to your seller dashboard and navigate to the auction creation page. Select "Create new auction" and choose from either the Timed or Live auction type. 

Pro tip: Most online auctions use the Timed auction type, but if you're not sure on which auction type to choose, use this guide.

  • Select "Classic" and "Continue with this template". 
  • You will see the Auction Creator page load with the Classic template layout active.
