How does the auction operate, including rules and features?
Bidders interested in participating in auctions must first create an account and register for each auction they wish to join. The first 72 hours of the auction will be conducted on an open bidding basis, where bidding is done on all lots simultaneously, followed by a period conducted on a countdown clock basis. After that initial open bidding period, the clock will start and count down from 3 minutes. If there is a bid during that 3 min period, then the clock will restart. If the time on the clock runs out (when there are 0 minutes and seconds remaining) before there is a new bid, the auction will end. Only registered bidders are permitted to place bids, and the highest bid at the close of the auction will determine the purchaser of that specific coffee lot. It’s important to note that all auctions on the platform are live, and each bid submitted is final and irrevocable, meaning bids cannot be amended or corrected once submitted, even if done so in error and promptly reported to the seller.

What if I win a lot?
If you win a lot, your registered name will appear next to the lot when the auction is officially closed. You will also receive a confirmation email from support@mcultivo.com (make sure to check your spam folder). Within this email, you will be introduced to the FNC team who will assist you with payment and logistics. All coffee must be paid for before it is shipped, and within 30 days of the auction's completion, unless the client has a different payment arrangement with FNC. All coffee is sold Free On Board (FOB) so you, the buyer, are responsible for all importation logistics. If you need assistance with this process, please reach out to the FNC team or to us at support@mcultivo and we will try to find a logistics partner for you.
