Live shopping and auctions
Whatnot centers on live shopping events, auctions, product drops, collectibles, and seller-led streams. Buyers can browse categories, follow sellers, and join time-sensitive sales where chat and bidding are part of the experience.
Live auctions move quickly, so review item details, seller reputation, shipping costs, and return rules before bidding. Set a budget before entering a sale to avoid impulse purchases.

Seller streams and community buying
For sellers, the app can support stream-based commerce, product presentation, audience interaction, inventory pacing, and order-driven workflows. For buyers, it can feel closer to a live event than a traditional shopping page, with chat, countdowns, and fast decisions shaping the purchase experience.
Marketplace apps involve payments, addresses, messages, and purchase history. Use strong account security, verify listings, and avoid sharing sensitive information in public chat.

Marketplace permission profile
The package declares camera, microphone, Bluetooth, contacts, calendar, phone state, storage, network, advertising identifier, vibration, and notification-related service capabilities. These can support seller streams, communication, alerts, media, and account or device checks.
Review camera, microphone, contacts, calendar, phone, and notification prompts before allowing them. The launch redirect is the main practical limitation for this package until the normal marketplace opens.
