How Bidio works

R0 signup. R0 listings. 10% when sold. No sale? No fee.

Seller

List and share for R0

Create a draft, review it, publish for free and share one auction link. If a sale is successfully paid, Bidio deducts its 10% Success Fee from the seller's proceeds.

Bidder

Bid with a clear obligation

Place the next valid bid or set a private AutoBid maximum. If you win, you must pay the winning amount by the stated deadline, plus any delivery cost disclosed separately. There is no buyer premium.

Finish

Pay, fulfil and settle

For a successful sale, payment is verified and funds are held while the item is fulfilled. A reported problem pauses release; otherwise the seller's proceeds become eligible for payout after the applicable dispute window and security checks.

Where the money goes

The seller's fee is never added to the buyer's bid.

On a paid R10,000 item sale, the Bidio Success Fee is R1,000 and the seller's item proceeds are R9,000. Any disclosed delivery amount is shown separately from the winning bid.
