Fees

Vikkun makes money from coins — not from a cut of your sale. Product payments go directly from buyer to seller; we never touch them and never take commission.

What’s free

• Browsing, searching, watchlists and saved-search alerts.
• Listing fixed-price items (free accounts have an active-listing cap; tiers raise it).
• Buying at a fixed price.
• Chat and offers.

What uses coins

• Bidding. Each bid takes a small coin fee plus a refundable stake. The stake comes back when the auction ends — unless you win and walk away.
• Publishing an auction. Sellers lock a refundable bond sized to the auction, returned when the deal is honoured.
• Promotion. Bumping a listing back to the top, or featuring it on the homepage rail.

Current coin prices and the exact fee numbers are always shown in-app before you commit — on the Coins page, in the bid form, and on the sell screen. Coins have no cash-out.

Membership tiers

Optional paid tiers add monthly coin grants, more active listings, lower bid fees and free featured slots. See your profile for current tier pricing.
