Pludor Live Selling lets a seller broadcast a live video stream with products attached, so viewers can watch, ask questions, and check out in real time during the broadcast.
Static listings can't create the urgency and real-time trust of showing a product live, answering questions, and letting viewers buy the moment they decide.
5 steps, in this order. Each one is explained in the step-by-step guide.
You need a store with live broadcast features and products attached to the stream so viewers can buy while watching. On Pludor, create a free store, open Live Broadcast in the Growth & AI menu of your dashboard, add your listings on the Products tab, then allow camera and mic and press Start a Live Broadcast. Viewers check out on pinned products without leaving the stream.
Yes - with live selling tools that attach products to the broadcast, checkout happens in real time, not after the show. On Pludor, products are pinned to the stream so viewers tap and buy mid-broadcast, and you answer their questions in the Chat tab while orders come in.
Live selling creates urgency and real-time trust that static listings can't: you show the product, answer questions on the spot, and let people buy the moment they decide. It works especially well for auctions, flash sales, product drops, and anything where Q&A helps close the sale. If your products need demonstration or explanation, live is worth trying.
It depends on the platform - some take a commission on sales or charge for streaming tools. On Pludor, streaming is free for every store; the normal platform fee (4.99% + $0.90 per paid order) applies to orders, tickets and gifts, and card processing is charged separately by Stripe. You can start on the free plan with no card needed.
Yes - Pludor Live Selling includes live auctions with a starting price and real-time bids, built into the same broadcast as your product checkout. You set it up from your store dashboard's Live Broadcast feature. Viewers bid while watching, and you can combine it with chat, gifts and paid tickets in one show.
Build a follower base and remind them before you go live. On Pludor, viewers who follow you get show reminders by push, SMS and email automatically. Also promote the show on your social channels and short video feeds - Pludor's Flika shoppable videos can showcase products and point people to your store.
A good show has an opening hook, clear product moments where you demo and answer questions, and a close with a reason to buy now. Name what you're selling and build a simple script around those beats. Pludor has a free Live Selling Script Writer that generates an opening, product moments and a close - you can try it without an account.
The big difference is ownership: on marketplace platforms, checkout is typically platform-owned and features like auctions or gifts are marketplace-specific. On Pludor, the show sells from your own store with your own products and checkout, and auctions, gifts, super-chats and paid-ticket events with replay are all built in. You're building your audience on your storefront rather than inside someone else's marketplace.
Yes - Pludor supports paid-ticket live events, and ticket holders get replay access. Recordings are kept only when you choose to keep the replay, and shows have a maximum length per broadcast. That makes it suitable for paid workshops, drop previews or exclusive sales events.
You mainly need a stable internet connection, a camera and a microphone - no studio gear required. On Pludor, a stable connection is needed for the broadcast; viewers on weak connections may just see lower quality video. Start simple with your phone, and focus on good lighting and clear answers in chat.
Yes - products are attached to the broadcast so viewers can check out in real time without waiting for the stream to end.
