FAQ

Do I have to pay gas?

Yes. Listings are on-chain so be prepared to pay a few dollars in gas when setting up your listing. Gallery auctions will also require nominal gas fees for activities including bidding, settling a completed auction, or canceling an auction.

Help! The NFT I’m auctioning is no longer in my wallet.

Manifold Gallery uses a β€œcustodial” contract model where the NFT and ETH of an auction are held in a smart contract until the auction is settled. When creating your auction your NFT will be transferred from your wallet to the Manifold custodial marketplace contract where it will be held until the auction is complete and settled (or canceled).

Can I modify my auction’s reserve price?

Yes. Reserve price of a Gallery auction can be modified. This is an on-chain transaction and will require a nominal gas fee. See the Managing Your Auctions section for more details.

Can I cancel my auction?

You can cancel an auction if it has no bids meaning the 24 hour hour countdown clock has not yet started. This is an on-chain transaction and will require a nominal gas fee. If the auction has at least one bid, the countdown clock will have started and the auction cannot be canceled. See the Managing Your Auctions section for more details.

How do I cancel my auction?

You can do so by logging into Manifold Studio's Gallery app and finding your auction. The three dots on the right side should let you click and cancel the auction.

What happens when I cancel my auction?

Canceling an auction will result in the auction being canceled and the NFT returned to your wallet.

What is Manifold’s platform or marketplace fee?

0%. Creators are the platform

What is the 6.9 Share %?

All listings created with the Gallery app in Manifold Studio will appear on gallery.manifold.xyz in a feed format for discovery and sharing. Anyone can use a Share Link (referral link with appended wallet address or ENS) to help drive winning bids and earn 6.9% of an artists final sale.

Can I modify or turn off the 6.9% Share?

Currently Share % is locked at 6.9% for any listing created with the Gallery app. If a winning bid is not driven by a Share Link the artist receives 100% of the sale price.

Can I modify configurations like duration, bid increment, and new bid extension?

For the launch of the Gallery app these configurations are set. Over time we'll be opening up more customization and mechanic configuration.
