The 30-second guide

How Vayka works

Vayka is a bid-to-win (penny) auction marketplace — different from eBay. Here's the whole game, step by step, so you can bid with confidence.

1

Buy your bids

Bids come in packs from ₹249, or claim 50 free when you sign up. Each bid costs roughly ₹0.67–₹1.66 depending on the pack. Bids never expire.

2

Place live bids

Every bid raises the auction price by ₹1 and resets the countdown to 10–20 seconds. You spend one bid from your balance each time you bid.

3

Win & save

When the timer hits zero, the last bidder wins the item at the final price — often 90–99% below retail. We ship it free, brand new and sealed.

Anatomy of an auction

Watch the clock reset

Imagine AirPods Pro 2 (retail ₹24,900) sitting at ₹140 with 8 seconds left. Someone bids — the price ticks to ₹141 and the clock jumps back to 20 seconds. Another bid, another reset. This continues until nobody bids before zero.

The final bidder pays just ₹141 plus the cost of the bids they spent. That's the thrill — and the saving.

Each bid = +₹1 Each bid = +10–20s Zero = last bidder wins

Two safety nets

Losing an auction doesn't mean losing everything. Vayka gives you ways to protect your spend.

Buy It Now

On many auctions you can stop bidding and buy the item at retail — and the bids you already spent are credited toward the purchase. Your spend is never fully wasted.

Beginner auctions

Marked with a blue badge, these have far fewer bidders. They're the easiest place to land your first win and learn the rhythm of the countdown.

Auto-Bid (BidBuddy)

Set a maximum number of bids and a price ceiling, then walk away. Vayka automatically re-bids for you whenever you're outbid — stopping the moment either limit is reached.
