A group is a private corner of the Marketplace. Listings posted to a group are visible only to its members, and gift cards can only be traded in groups that allow them. Groups are under Marketplace → Groups. Each plan allows a certain number of groups per account, counting ones you create and ones you join; see Plans and limits.

Create a group

1

Open the form

On the Groups page, click Create group.
2

Describe it

Enter a name and, if you like, a description and rules. Rules are shown to members on the group page.
3

Decide how people get in

Set a Join code if you want to share an invite link but still gate who can use it. Leave it empty to let anyone with the link join.
4

Choose whether to allow gift cards

Gift card trades carry more risk, so they’re off by default. Tick Allow gift cards to permit them in this group.
5

Save

Click Create group. You become the group’s admin.

Invite members

There are no email invites. On the group page, click Copy join link and send it to people. If the group has a join code, tell them that too. Admins and moderators can also add someone directly with Add member, by their marketplace username, with an optional alias for the group. When someone opens the link, they see the group’s size and listing count, enter the join code if there is one, and can pick a nickname that’s shown instead of their username inside the group. Three wrong join codes in a row pause attempts for ten seconds.

Roles

The person who created the group is its admin. A group always keeps at least one admin; the last one can’t leave or be removed. Open Manage members on the group page to change roles, edit aliases, or remove people.

Leaving and disputes

Leaving a group, or being removed, takes your listings out of that group. A listing with nowhere else to show is deleted. Admins and moderators see a Disputes button on the group page. It lists reports members have filed about conversations inside the group, so they can be reviewed and resolved. See Reporting a user. Groups can’t be deleted by users. If a group has run its course, remove the members or leave it.
