Listing genetics on the marketplace
A genetics listing sells straws, embryos or other material that is already in your Genetics inventory. Pick the material, choose a fixed price or an auction, explain delivery, then select Publish listing.
Before you start
To publish and take payment, you need a verified phone number and a completed identity check. Until both are done, the form saves your listing as a draft. Finish verifying, open the draft and select Publish listing.
You don't need a payout account to sell. Earnings go to your Creatures Wallet, and you add a payout account only to withdraw. See What you need to start selling.
1. Choose the material
Open the item in Genetics and select List for sale. Or go to Marketplace > Genetics, select List genetics and pick a Source item.
Not in the list, or see Add inventory before listing? Select Add genetic material (or Add material) and save it. You return to this form with it picked. See Managing your genetic inventory.
Set Physical quantity offered, the number of units for sale. Use Minimum purchase and Maximum purchase if buyers must take a set amount.
Hatching eggs use their own form. See Sell hatching eggs by the pack.
2. Pick a fixed price or an auction
Under Sale format, choose one:
- Fixed price: buyers check out right away for the amount they want. Enter the Price per unit. To reward big orders, add Bulk tiers, one per line. For example, 10: 55.00 means buyers who take 10 or more pay $55 each.
- Auction: one winner buys every unit still listed as a single lot. Enter the Starting bid for the lot, Start time and End time. A Reserve price for the lot (the lowest price you'll accept) and a Buy Now price for the lot are optional.
To screen bidders, turn on Require buyer approval before bidding or Buy Now. Then pick an Application form, or keep Use the default application. Only buyers you approve can bid or use Buy Now. New requests appear under Dashboard > Selling > Applications.
3. Explain delivery and costs
In Fulfillment:
- Enter the Pickup or storage address, where the material is kept.
- Choose the Container required, such as a dry shipper. If none fits, pick the Other choice and describe it.
- Turn on what applies: Pickup only, Requires cold-chain handling, or Seller coordinates shipping if you will book the shipment. Unless the listing is pickup only, buyers enter a delivery address at checkout.
Carrier and container charges are not part of checkout, so agree on them with the buyer.
Buyers pay a 5% service fee on top of your price. To pay it yourself, turn on Seller covers buyer service fee.
If you run an active storage service for this material, buyers can also pick Keep it stored with your name. See Keep purchased genetics in storage.
Finally, add photos and describe the lineage, material and handling needs.
4. Publish and manage
Under Activity feed, Show comments lets buyers ask public questions and lets you post updates. For an auction, turn on Show bidders as anonymous numbers to list bidders as Bidder #1, Bidder #2 and so on. Then select Publish listing.
On your listing, use Edit listing to make changes or Cancel listing to end the sale. For an auction, both stop at the first bid.
Promote this listing gives you a share link and an optional boost for promoters. See Covering buyer fees and adding promoter rewards.
Selling to someone off the marketplace? Use Sell privately on the item. See Recording genetic sales and use.
Offering this male at stud too? Turn on Also link available semen in his stud offer so his profile shows Shipped semen. Breeders still buy straws through this listing.
