High-Value Bidding Verification

To maintain a secure and trusted environment for all collectors, Alt requires an additional verification step for accounts placing bids that exceed our internal high-value threshold.

Updated today

Why is verification required?

This safeguard helps ensure fairness and consistency across all high-value transactions. It’s a standard part of our process and not a reflection of doubt—just a way to protect the integrity of the auction experience for everyone.

What’s required?

To unlock high-value bidding on your Alt account, we ask that you submit a **fully refundable $3,000 deposit via wire transfer or credit card.

Once received, your account will be cleared to bid without restriction.

What happens to the deposit?

- The deposit is a good faith measure and will be **fully refunded** at the close of the auction.

- In rare cases of nonpayment, the deposit may be applied to cover default-related losses.

How do I submit the deposit?

If you’d like to move forward, reach out to our team and we’ll provide:

- Wire transfer instructions

- A secure credit card payment link
