How PoolCures Works
Five steps from demand to delivery. You decide what to buy. The crowd makes it affordable.
Post Your Demand
Tell the platform what you want to buy in bulk. Name the product, quantity, and your target price. Your demand signal is visible to other buyers and sellers.
You're not committing to anything yet. You're signaling demand. Think of it like raising your hand and saying 'I need this.'
Others Join Your Pool
Other buyers who want the same product see your demand and join the pool. As volume grows, the price drops through volume discount tiers.
10 units = one price. 50 units = lower price. 100 units = wholesale price. The more people join, the better the deal for everyone.
Sellers See Demand & Bid
Sellers see the aggregated demand and compete for your business. They bid with their price, lead time, and shipping terms. You see all bids transparently.
This is a reverse auction — sellers compete for buyers, not the other way around. The market sets the price, not any individual.
Pool Hits Threshold
When enough buyers commit and a seller bid is accepted, the pool reaches its threshold. Your saved payment method is charged — funds go directly to the seller.
The platform NEVER holds your money. Payment goes straight from you to the seller via Stripe. We take a 5% transaction fee, deducted automatically.
Product Ships to You
The seller fulfills the order. You get tracking information and delivery updates. Rate the seller after delivery to help future buyers.
For domestic orders: 2-7 day delivery. For international orders: 30-60 days including customs clearance. Full cost breakdown shown before you commit.
