What is the post-sale process?

Once a fixed-price purchase is made or an auction ends successfully, here’s how the post-sale process works:

1. Buyer Checkout

The buyer is guided to a secure checkout page to pay via Credit card or ACH (bank transfer) payment.

2. Transportation Coordination

After payment is confirmed, the buyer and seller connect via the Creatures messaging system to finalize the transportation or pick up arrangements.

Creatures is also available to help with transportation, check out Transportation & Logistics Assistance for more information.

3. Shipping and Delivery Confirmation

• Seller marks the animal as ‘shipped’ or ‘picked-up’ from their Activity Page.
• Buyer marks the animal as ‘received’ once it arrives safely.

4. Payout to Seller

After the animal is delivered, funds are transferred to the seller’s own connected account.

5. Verified Ratings and Reviews

Both parties are encouraged to leave reviews associated with every transaction.
