Is Auction down right now?
Live Auction status here builds on Auction down reports from auction.co.kr and app bidders through the day. A dead bid button or a frozen lot page points to a shared fault.
Reopen the app and load one running lot page. If bidding, cart and search all stall, the fault sits past your phone.
Is Auction down for me or everyone?
Open auction.co.kr in a phone browser while the app lot page spins. If the site bids fine, the answer to is Auction down for me points to the app build. If both stall, the fault runs wider.
How does live bidding work on the Auction item page?
A live lot shows a current top bid, a time left clock and a bid box on its item page. Type your bid, check the step amount, then tap the bid button to lead. The page refreshes your place after each bid.
Fixed price listings sit beside live lots with a plain buy button instead. A cart holds fixed price goods, while a won lot moves to the won items screen. Read the lot type tag before you tap anything.
What does the SmilePay step ask for at checkout?
SmilePay sits at checkout for both won lots and fixed price orders. You pick a saved card or bank account, then confirm with a six digit password. Smile Cash shows on that screen for part payment.
Can you track a bid from the bid history screen?
The bid history screen lists each bid you placed, with lot names and amounts in order. A green lead tag marks lots where your bid still leads. A passed tag shows where a higher bid beat yours.
Does the ending alert reach you before a bid closes?
Watched lots send an ending alert as the clock runs low on the item page. Turn alerts on inside the app settings for each watched lot. A full Auction outage silences those alerts at once.
Common Auction Problems and Fixes
Try the Auction fixes below when bidding, SmilePay or the won items screen stops working. Each fix fits one screen, so start from the screen that failed first.
Bid button stays grey on a live lot
A grey bid button means the lot clock ended or your login dropped. Reload the lot page, sign in again, then read the time left line. Place the bid again only while the clock still runs.
SmilePay password fails at the Auction pay step
Wrong password tries lock SmilePay after a set count on the pay screen. Use the find password link on that screen and reset it with your phone check. Then return to checkout and pay once.
Won items screen misses a lot you won
The won items screen fills after the lot clock closes and the win settles. Pull the screen down once to fetch the fresh win list. Check the bid history screen if the lot still hides.
Ending alerts stop for watched lots
Phone battery rules often mute Auction alerts in the background without a warning. Open phone settings, let the app run in the background, then watch one lot again. Test with a lot ending soon.
Auction app crashes when a lot page opens
A crash on lot pages often follows an old app build with stale lot data. Update the app, clear its cache, then open a simple search page first. Load a live lot only after search works.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the won items screen list after a bid ends?
It lists each lot you won, with the winning bid and a pay button beside it. Open a lot line to see its order steps. Pay from that screen before its pay deadline passes.
How do I place a higher bid on the Auction item page?
Type a bid above the step amount shown under the current top bid. Tap the bid button, then check the lead tag on the page. The bid history screen keeps your new bid line.
Is Smile Cash shown apart from SmilePay on Auction?
Yes, Smile Cash shows as its own balance line on the pay screen. SmilePay names the payment tool that holds your saved cards and accounts. Spend Smile Cash first, then cover the rest with SmilePay.
Does Auction let me set a top bid limit?
Yes, the bid box takes the top sum you accept for that lot. The page bids step by step up to that limit as rivals bid. Raise it on the item page before the clock ends.
Can I cancel a bid from the bid history screen?
No, a placed bid stays live until the lot clock ends or a higher bid passes it. The history screen lists bids but holds no cancel button. Check the amount twice before you tap the bid button.
When does an ending alert fire for a watched item?
The alert fires as the lot clock enters its last stretch on the item page. Your phone must allow Auction alerts for the ping to land. Open the lot at once to place a late bid.
