FOR BUYERS

Know what happens next before you place a bid.

Your Buyer workspace keeps readiness, auction registration, bidding and completed purchases connected to the same Cavvyo account.

1. Become Bid Ready

Complete identity, phone, address, payment method and buyer terms once so your account is prepared for auction registration.

Identity · phone · address · payment method · terms

2. Review the equine and seller

Study current media, disclosures, supporting records, seller history, auction timing and sale terms before bidding.

Photos · video · records · disclosures · seller profile

3. Register for the auction

Once Bid Ready, confirm the auction terms and register while the sale remains active. Your workspace shows your status clearly.

Terms · bidder status · auction access

4. Bid on the number you mean

Follow the listing-specific clock, current bid and reserve status. Direct bids and private Max Bid functionality keep the close simple.

If you win, the purchase workflow keeps the winning amount and payment status together without adding a Cavvyo buyer marketplace fee.

6. Plan pickup and release

Confirm who is collecting the equine, coordinate the handoff and use the protected release code when the physical transfer occurs.

THE BUYER JOURNEY

The auction ending is not the end of the workflow.
