The ability to buy and sell wholesale animals is now live!

Starting today, approved sellers with a paid membership can view, buy, and sell wholesale animals.

This new feature opens up new opportunities for you to expand your business and reach a wider audience. While participation is not mandatory, we highly recommend exploring the wholesale option. By participating in wholesale, you can increase your visibility on the platform and attract bulk buyers who are ready to make significant purchases.

Sellers have the ability to set their own default wholesale store policy.

To locate wholesale listings, use the "Wholesale" tab under your desired category or click on the "Wholesale" check box in the filters. The wholesale pricing will also be listed on the individual animal listing page.

Sellers are now able to list multiple breeding plans!

Breeding Plans help you plan successful projects, track, and promote them.

• Experiment with pairings and visualize possible outcomes

• View expected combined outcomes for your entire season

• Quickly create offspring groups from successful pairings

• Share breeding plans with the community

Dear European and South African members,

In 2017, MorphMarket added European and South African regions. Since that time these regions have been classified as "Developing Markets", where many premium features were available to all sellers.

We are happy to share that these markets have grown significantly since their debut in 2017. Also, during this time, we have continued to grow and evolve our platform with essential changes and improved tools and service quality.

For these reasons, starting January 1, 2024, these regions will be classified as Mature Markets. This means that premium features previously available will now be part of paid plans. Recognizing the smaller market size in these regions, we've decided to offer these membership plans at half the price of the rates in the US region.

We have always been dedicated to providing a platform for all sellers and enthusiasts. As such, we will continue offering a free plan with basic features to ensure everyone can still use MorphMarket.

No immediate action is required on your part. In the coming weeks, we will provide further details on the new membership plans and how to subscribe.

We want to make sure that these changes are driven by our commitment to enhancing your experience on MorphMarket. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or concerns.

Sincerely,

Your MorphMarket team

We are also happy to inform you that the Desert Ghost test is no longer an “elimination” test. The test is now good for two genes, DGa and DGb, since it is polygenic. This new test version is now available.

The full list of Ball Python tests currently includes: Albino, Asphalt, Black Pastel, Candy/Toffee, Clown, Cryptic, Desert Ghost, Enchi, Genetic Stripe, Gravel, Hypo, Lavender Albino, Leopard, Orange Dream, Piebald, Red Stripe, Spark, Specter, Sunset, Ultramel, VPI Axanthic, and Yellowbelly.

MorphMadness Site Wide Sale Event

We're excited to announce MorphMarket’s very first MorphMadness Sale Event. This event will be taking place from October 29th, 2023 to November 4th, 2023.

Our goal is to make this an unforgettable experience for both sellers and buyers. That's why we're pulling out all the stops to boost site activity and make your sales soar. We will also be featuring participating listings on our socials during this time period.

How to Participate

Participation is entirely up to you, but we highly recommend joining in on the fun.

During MorphMadness, we're breaking free from the usual sale restrictions. Normally, you can activate sales for 72 hours once per renewal cycle. However, for this event, all sellers can list their animals for the entire 7 days, regardless of previous sales. This is a great opportunity to boost your sales and reach a wider audience.

To learn more about how to activate sales, click here. Please note: Bulk Actions to activate sales are now available!

If you have any questions or need any assistance, please reach out to us at [email protected].

Let's make MorphMadness a huge success! Happy selling!

Now you can find animals that will be available for purchase or pickup at expos!

Reptile expos are a crucial part of the hobby. They attract many new enthusiasts and boost sales for breeders. We recognize their immense value to all of us. That's why MorphMarket is taking expo support to the next level.

On our expos page, you can find upcoming shows and the vendors participating in them.

With our newest feature:

• Sellers can now tag the animals they'll have available for purchase at a specific expo (on the new edit animal page).
• Buyers can easily view these animals in search using the filter "Expo Pickup," enabling pre-sales.

Buyers can inquire about an animal beforehand and arrange for pickup at the expo. This makes the whole process straightforward and hassle-free.

We are excited to announce the release of a long-awaited feature. Animals can now be listed on sale!

Animals that are on sale will have a sale price listed in red. You can now filter to see all available animals on sale. To do so, select your category of choice. Click the "on-sale" box in the filter section below "price." You can also select the "Deals" tab at the top of the category page.

How Sales Work:

• An animal can be put on sale only once per ad listing cycle.

• Sales will be active for 72 hours per listing but can be manually disabled before then.

• Sales can be activated once per an ad’s listing cycle. Once you renew your ad after a few weeks, you can run it on sale again.

• Sellers can activate a sale on one, several, or all of your listings at once, depending on what kind of sale you’d like to have.

• The price must be lower than the original animal price.

• The price must accurately reflect what you are willing to sell the animal for and not a “fake price” tactic to garner inquiries.

• Bulk Actions to activate sales are now available!

We limit how often you can run an animal on sale because otherwise, some folks might run all their animals “on sale” all the time, and the feature would lose value. We may create more options for how sales can be run in the future.
