Secondary Sales

After an edition is purchased on the primary market, it can be resold on the Verse secondary market or traded on external marketplaces.

Verse Secondary Market

Owners can list their editions for resale directly on Verse.

Listing Types

  • Buy Now — Fixed price listing via SMBuyNowStrategy
  • Offers — Collectors can make offers on any listed edition via SMOfferStrategy
  • Global Offers — Offers that apply to any edition of an artwork, not just a specific one

Fees

Secondary market sales include:

  • Platform fee — Verse marketplace fee (percentage of sale price)
  • Creator royalties — Configured per artwork, enforced on-platform

Use estimateSecondaryMarketFees to preview the fee breakdown. See the Schema Reference.

External Markets

Verse integrates with external marketplaces, primarily OpenSea. When an edition is withdrawn to a collector's wallet, it can be traded on any compatible marketplace.

External market activity (sales, listings, offers) is indexed and surfaced through the API.
