Kixify FAQ
Last updated June 2026
Buying on Kixify
How browsing, offers, checkout, and orders work.
What is Kixify?
Kixify is a sneaker marketplace built around protected checkout. When you buy through Kixify checkout, your order, payment, seller messages, tracking, Buyer Protection, Authenticity Guarantee support, and Kixify Support stay connected in one place.
Is Kixify a store or a marketplace?
Kixify is a marketplace, and Kixify checkout is the protection layer that keeps the order together. Sellers list their sneakers, and Kixify provides protected checkout, order history, support, Buyer Protection, and Authenticity Guarantee support.
Do I need an account to browse?
No. You can browse releases, products, stores, and seller profiles without an account. You will need an account for checkout, orders, wants, following, messaging, feedback, and seller tools.
How do release pages relate to marketplace listings?
Release pages organize sneakers by catalog information such as name, brand, colorway, release date, and style code. Marketplace offers are seller listings connected to that catalog style, usually grouped by size and seller.
Why do prices vary by size?
Each seller chooses their own price, and inventory can be priced differently by size. Kixify shows available seller offers so buyers can compare size, condition, seller, and total checkout context before buying.
What are More Seller Offers?
More Seller Offers are additional listings for the same sneaker or style from other sellers. They help buyers compare seller options, feedback, price, and available sizes.
What are Wants and Following?
Wants let signed-in buyers save products they are interested in. Following lets buyers keep track of sellers and stores they want to revisit. In the app, these live in the Profile area.
How do I contact a seller?
Use the contact or message action on a product, seller profile, or order when available. For order problems, include the order number and keep the conversation on Kixify so support can help if needed.
Checkout, Orders, and Shipping
PayPal checkout, order history, tracking, and delivery questions.
Why does checkout use PayPal?
Kixify checkout uses PayPal so your payment is handled securely and your order stays protected through Kixify Buyer Protection. Buying through Kixify checkout also keeps your order, seller messages, tracking, and support details connected in one place.
How does Buy Now work in the app?App
In the app, checkout is designed around one selected offer at a time. Choose a size or offer, enter or select a shipping address, then continue to PayPal. If PayPal checkout succeeds, the app sends you to your order details.
Does the app have a cart?App
In the app, checkout is Buy Now. The website may offer a different checkout flow, but app purchases focus on one selected offer at a time.
What shipping information is required?
Checkout needs the recipient name, email, street address, city, region, postal code, country, and phone number. Saved addresses may prefill the app checkout form when available.
What happens after I place an order?
The seller is notified and prepares the order for shipment. Your order stays in your Kixify account, and tracking appears in order history when it is added. If something feels wrong, you can message the seller and contact Kixify Support from the order details.
Where can I see my orders?
Signed-in buyers can view orders from their account, dashboard, or Profile area in the app. Order details include products, shipping address, tracking, order summary, PayPal transactions, comments, and available contact or feedback actions.
What should I do if tracking is missing or looks wrong?
You are not on your own. Start by messaging the seller from the order. If the issue is not resolved, contact Kixify Support with your order number, seller messages, tracking information, and a short description of the problem.
Why did an offer become unavailable during checkout?
Inventory can change if a seller edits, ends, or sells a listing. Before starting PayPal checkout, Kixify rechecks product availability, selected size, and stock. If something changed, choose another available offer.
Buyer Protection and Authenticity
The protections behind Kixify checkout orders.
Is it safe to buy on Kixify?
Yes, Kixify is built to make marketplace buying safer when you complete your purchase through Kixify checkout. Your payment is processed by PayPal, your order stays on Kixify, and Kixify checkout orders are backed by Buyer Protection, Authenticity Guarantee support, and Kixify Support if something goes wrong.
Does Buyer Protection apply to every Kixify order?
Every order completed through Kixify checkout is backed by Kixify Buyer Protection. If an order does not arrive or is significantly different from the listing, Kixify Support can help organize your order details while PayPal reviews the payment claim under its own program rules.
Are off-platform purchases covered?
For your protection, always pay through Kixify checkout and keep order messages on Kixify. If a seller asks you to pay somewhere else, do not send payment. Cash, wire transfers, direct PayPal payments, friends-and-family payments, and other arrangements outside Kixify checkout are not Kixify checkout orders.
What does Kixify do if something goes wrong?
Kixify Support helps keep the order moving in the right direction. We can help with seller contact, order details, tracking information, listing details, photos, PayPal claim context, and authenticity concerns tied to a Kixify checkout order.
What is Kixify Authenticity Guarantee?
The Authenticity Guarantee gives buyers a support path when a purchase completed through Kixify checkout is counterfeit or significantly not as described. Kixify helps document the order, listing, photos, tracking, and messages so the issue can be reviewed through the proper protection process.
What if the seller does not ship my order?
Message the seller from your order first. If they do not respond or tracking is not provided, contact Kixify Support with your order number. If the order still is not resolved, Kixify checkout orders are backed by Buyer Protection and PayPal Purchase Protection review.
What if I receive the wrong item, a damaged item, or a counterfeit pair?
Take clear photos of the item, box, labels, packaging, and anything that looks different from the listing. Contact Kixify Support with your order number and seller messages. Kixify checkout orders are backed by Buyer Protection and Authenticity Guarantee support.
What if tracking says delivered but I did not receive the package?
Check the delivery address, carrier details, household members, building mailroom, and nearby delivery areas. Then contact Kixify Support with your order number, tracking number, and any carrier details. If the issue remains unresolved, Kixify checkout orders are backed by Buyer Protection and PayPal Purchase Protection review.
What problems should I document?
Save your order number, PayPal transaction ID, listing photos, seller messages, tracking, packaging photos, and clear photos of the item received. These details help Kixify Support and PayPal review what happened.
What deadlines apply to PayPal disputes?
PayPal deadlines can vary by claim type and program rules. Review the Buyer Protection page and PayPal Purchase Protection terms before filing, and respond to PayPal documentation requests on time.
Can Kixify decide a PayPal claim?
PayPal reviews and decides PayPal Purchase Protection claims under its program rules. Kixify Support can still help by organizing the order details, listing information, tracking, and messages connected to your Kixify order.
Account and App
Account access, profile settings, notifications, and app behavior.
Does the app use my Kixify.com account?App
Yes. Sign in with the same Kixify account you use on Kixify.com. Your profile, orders, buying activity, and seller tools stay connected between the website and app.
How do I reset my password?
Use Forgot Password on the sign-in screen or the website password reset page. For privacy, Kixify may show a generic confirmation message even if the email address does not match an account.
How do I update my username, email, password, or profile photo?
Signed-in buyers can update Profile and Sign-in settings from Settings. Sellers can update their profile, avatar, shipping policy, return policy, and integrations from seller settings when available.
How do app notifications work?App
On native iOS and Android builds, the app can request notification permission after sign-in and register the device with Kixify. Web previews do not register push tokens.
How do I close my account?
Use the close-account action in account or seller settings when available. Closing an account is destructive and can remove listings or store content tied to that account, so review the confirmation carefully.
What if my account is blocked or I cannot sign in?
Contact Kixify Support with your username, email address, and any related order numbers. Support usually reviews requests within 1-2 business days.
Selling on Kixify
Seller setup, listings, fees, PayPal, and product management.
How do I start selling?
Start from Sell or List Your Item. You can search the catalog by name or style code, choose a sneaker, add size and quantity, set a price, and review estimated earnings. Publishing requires a Kixify account, phone verification, and connected PayPal.
What is required before a listing can go live?
Sellers need an account, verified phone number, seller store setup, and PayPal connected and ready to receive marketplace payments. Missing requirements can let you preview selling but prevent listings from going live.
What is the difference between catalog listing and Add Your Own?
Catalog listing uses Kixify release data, product identity, images, style code, and Brand New condition so sellers can list faster. Add Your Own is for items not found in the catalog and requires authenticated seller setup because photos and custom details must be uploaded.
What fee does Kixify take from sellers?
The listing flow shows the platform fee and estimated seller earnings before publishing. The standard marketplace fee shown in current seller tools is 10% of the item price. Buyer-paid shipping, taxes, PayPal rules, and seller settings can affect the final order context.
Do sellers have listing limits?
Yes. Listing capacity can vary by seller tier and account status. If you reach your active listing limit, Kixify may ask you to manage inactive listings first or request a higher limit review.
What happens if my seller account is inactive?
Seller accounts with active listings may enter an inactivity notice period after 60+ days without logging in. Kixify sends notice emails before taking action. If you do not log in before the deadline, your listings may be temporarily hidden from buyers. Logging back in can restore your listings.
How do I keep my listings active during an inactivity notice?
Log in to Kixify before the deadline in the notice email. A quick sign-in confirms the seller account is active and keeps your active listings visible to buyers. If you cannot access your account, use password reset or contact support before the deadline.
How do I reactivate listings that went offline for inactivity?
Log in to Kixify. If inactivity was the only issue, your listings can come back online automatically. If there is another account issue, resolve that separately or contact support.
What is a style code and why does it matter?
A style code helps connect a seller listing to the correct Kixify release or catalog sneaker. Accurate style codes improve discovery, pricing context, and offer matching.
What are Needs Style Code, Price Opportunity, and Next to Sell?
These are seller coaching signals. Needs Style Code means Kixify needs a better catalog match. Price Opportunity highlights size-level prices that may be high compared with the market. Next to Sell points to listings that may be positioned well for buyer demand.
Can I edit every listing in the app?App
The app supports common listing edits such as title, style code, condition, description, price, sizes, quantity, and images when the listing type allows it. Some listings or advanced changes may still need to be managed on the website.
What happens when I end or delete a listing?
Ending a listing removes it from active selling and clears available stock. Deleting a listing removes it after confirmation. Bulk delete is not available in the app.
Seller Orders and Payments
Seller orders, shipping labels, tracking, refunds, and PayPal setup.
Where do sellers see orders?
Sellers can view recent orders from the dashboard and full seller order history from the Orders or Selling area. Order detail includes products, shipping address, tracking, order summary, PayPal transactions, comments, and available actions.
How do I add tracking?
Open the seller order detail, choose Add Tracking when available, select the carrier, and enter the tracking number. Kixify stores the tracking record, updates the order, notifies the buyer, and syncs tracking to PayPal when supported.
Can I buy or print shipping labels?
Eligible seller orders can show shipping-label actions. Enter accurate package details before buying a label. Incorrect size, weight, or service details can cause carrier adjustments or surcharges.
How do I message a buyer?
Use Message Buyer from seller order details when the option is available. Keep order-related communication on Kixify so the order stays clear for both parties and support.
How are seller refunds handled?
Refund actions use PayPal and appear when a refund is available for the order. PayPal processes the refund, and Kixify updates the order details so the buyer and seller can see the refund status.
Why can a refund show as pending?
PayPal can create a refund that is still settling, such as an eCheck-funded refund. Kixify should show that refund as pending and prevent duplicate refund attempts while PayPal completes settlement.
How do sellers connect PayPal?
Open PayPal setup from seller settings or seller onboarding and choose Connect PayPal. PayPal will ask you to grant marketplace permissions, confirm your email, and make sure the account can receive payments.
Why might my products be offline because of PayPal?
Seller listings need a PayPal account that is connected, verified, and able to receive marketplace payments. If PayPal setup is incomplete or blocked, listings may stay offline until the issue is fixed.
Why do I see an old seller invoice?
Some older seller accounts may still show past invoices for recordkeeping. Current seller payment setup is handled through PayPal marketplace payments.
Messages, Feedback, and Support
Communication, reviews, support requests, and safety reports.
How do Kixify messages work?App
Messages let buyers and sellers communicate about products and orders. The app supports inbox, sent messages, thread view, replies, read/unread controls, and deleting individual threads where available. It is not real-time chat.
How does feedback work?
Eligible buyers and sellers can leave positive, neutral, or negative feedback after qualifying order activity. Some screens also support changing feedback or requesting a change when Kixify rules allow it.
Can sellers leave feedback for multiple orders?
Where available, sellers can select multiple orders waiting for feedback and leave the same feedback choice and message for those orders.
How do I contact Kixify Support?
Use Contact Support and choose the issue type that best matches your problem. Include your username, email, order number, related listing or store URL, other account involved, and a concise description. Support usually reviews requests within 1-2 business days.
Why can I only send a few support messages per hour?
Kixify limits repeated support form submissions to reduce spam and keep support queues usable. If the form is temporarily limited, wait and try again or email support directly when instructed on the page.
How do I report a listing or safety concern?
Use report or contact actions when available, or contact support with the listing URL, seller username, screenshots, and a clear explanation. Kixify can review listings, messages, and accounts for trust and safety issues.
Still need help?
Contact Kixify Support with your username, email, order number, listing URL, and a short description.
