Time-limited holds
When you select a paid booth, it’s held for you for a limited time (set by the host). If you don’t complete checkout before the hold expires, the booth becomes available again. So don’t wait too long after selecting.Adding another booth
Some hosts allow vendors to have multiple booths. If so, you’ll see an Add another booth option after your first selection.Tips
- Pick your booth as soon as it opens — popular spots go fast.
- Check the booth map before selecting to see where entrances, exits, and other vendors are.
- If you need a specific spot (corner, near power, etc.), message the host to ask before selecting.
