Other Marketplaces

How artworks and listings from Magic Eden, Tensor, Exchange Art, Objkt and OpenSea appear on mallow, and what you can do with each one.

mallow shows more than the artworks minted and listed on mallow. It reads artworks from Solana, Tezos and Ethereum wallets, and listings from other marketplaces, and puts them on the same profiles, artwork pages and Explore results.

What you can do with a listing depends on where it comes from. Some can be bought on mallow, some open the other marketplace, and some are shown for information only.

What mallow reads

ChainListings shown from
Solanamallow, Magic Eden, Tensor and Exchange Art
TezosObjkt
EthereumOpenSea

An artwork is on mallow once mallow has indexed it. For work made elsewhere, that happens when its creator or its owner signs in to mallow or links the wallet. Not every artwork or listing on another marketplace is on mallow.

Listings by marketplace

An artwork page names the source of an outside listing at the top of the artwork's details: Listed on Magic Eden, Listed on Tensor, Listed on objkt.com or Listed on OpenSea.

mallow offers are made on Solana artworks. An Objkt or OpenSea listing has no Make offer button. A seller with a Magic Eden or Tensor listing has to delist it there before they can accept a mallow offer, because that marketplace holds the artwork while it's listed.

Magic Eden

The price on a Magic Eden listing is what a buyer pays there: the seller's price plus the full creator royalty and Magic Eden's own fee.

  1. Click Buy on the artwork page. The Buy artwork window opens and fetches a live quote
  2. Check Total cost, and open Fee details for the breakdown: Seller price, Creator royalty, Magic Eden fee, mallow fee, Estimated network fee and Account rent
  3. Click Buy and approve the transaction in your Solana wallet

The page confirms with Artwork collected, as it does for a mallow purchase. The mallow fee line is what mallow charges for the purchase. See also Fees.

Tensor

mallow doesn't index Tensor. It checks for a Tensor listing when an artwork's page is opened, so the listing shows on that page only. You won't see it on cards or in Explore. The page shows the List price and names the seller as the owner. It can't be bought on mallow.

Exchange Art

mallow records Exchange Art listings and sales of Solana artworks, so the price and the history appear on the artwork. There's no button to buy or bid on them from mallow.

Objkt

Tezos artworks can't be bought or bid on inside mallow. Buy on Objkt and Place bid on Objkt open the listing on objkt.com in a new tab, where you complete it with a Tezos wallet.

OpenSea

An OpenSea listing of an Ethereum artwork (ERC-721 or ERC-1155) can be bought on mallow with an Ethereum wallet.

  1. Connect an Ethereum wallet: choose Ethereum in the Sign in window, or use Switch wallet in the user menu. Without one, Buy responds with Connect to an Ethereum wallet to buy
  2. Click Buy. The Buy artwork window fetches a quote, which refreshes on a countdown
  3. Check Total cost in ETH. Fee details lists Seller receives, each Marketplace fee, Creator earnings and the Estimated network fee
  4. Click Buy and confirm in your wallet. If the wallet is on another network, the button reads Switch to Ethereum mainnet

A listing with several copies shows Price per copy, and you buy one copy at a time.

Filtering Explore by marketplace

The Marketplace filter in Explore has three options: mallow, Objkt and OpenSea. It narrows results to artworks whose latest listing or sale came from that marketplace. Objkt isn't offered while Tezos is switched off in Chain settings.

Your own work and listings

If you're an artist, your artworks and listings from other platforms appear on your mallow profile too. See Importing your artwork and Linking wallets.
