Practice going live with Rehearsal Mode

Rehearsal Mode is a no-pressure way to get familiar with live selling on Whatnot. It lets you run a simulated show with practice bids and no real audience, helping you build confidence before going live. 

How Rehearsal Mode works

In Rehearsal Mode, you can: 

• Follow a guided tour

• Practice live selling with pre-loaded demo products 

• Try features like pinning items and running auctions with test buyers (not real accounts)

• Feel more ready before your real show 

Want to test with friends or team members? Schedule a private show instead. Private shows can only be accessed through a shared link.

How to access Rehearsal Mode

You can access Rehearsal Mode from the Seller Hub on the Whatnot app for iOS and Android. It's not available on whatnot.com. 

Note: If you’re a new seller, you may not see the Seller Hub or Rehearsal Mode until after your first live show. Once you’ve gone live, you’ll have full access to these seller tools.

1. From the app, tap Seller Hub at the bottom of the screen

2. Tap the menu icon (☰) in the top right

3. Scroll down to Settings

4. Tap Rehearsal Mode

You can return to Rehearsal Mode whenever you need and practice as many times as you’d like.
