How to Manage Notifications & Watchlist Keywords

Customize your settings to stay informed about auctions that matter to you — whether it's when you're outbid, your favorite listings are closing, or something new gets listed that matches your interests.

Click the 👤 user icon
From the menu, select “My Profile”

🔔 2. Open the Notifications Tab


Inside your profile, click the “Notifications” tab
This is where you manage alerts and email preferences

✅ 3. Set Notification Preferences


Choose which alerts you'd like to receive:
Outbid alert – Get notified if someone places a higher bid

👁️‍🗨️ 5. Add Keywords While Searching


You can add keywords to your watchlist directly from the search bar:
Search for a term (e.g. "Apple")
Click the eye 👁️ + icon next to the keyword
A pop-up will confirm: click “Add to Watchlist”
