How to add your BIDLYY auction to OBS

Add your live BIDLYY auction to OBS or another browser-source compatible streaming app and show bidding live on your stream.

  1. 01

    Create a live auction

    Use Bidlyy's AI idea generator or a template to set one up, or pick up one you already have running.

  2. 02

    Open Studio

    Studio lists every auction you're currently running.

  3. 03

    Click "Overlay" on your live auction

    It's next to each live listing in your Studio list.

  4. 04

    Copy your overlay URL

    The dialog generates a link the first time you open it — click Copy URL.

  5. 05

    Open OBS Studio

    Or Streamlabs, or any other software that supports browser sources.

  6. 06

    Add a Browser Source

    In your Sources panel, click "+" and choose Browser.

  7. 07

    Paste your BIDLYY overlay URL

    Paste it into the URL field of the new Browser Source.

  8. 08

    Set Width to 600 and Height to 260

    That's the size the overlay is designed for.

  9. 09

    Position the overlay anywhere in your stream scene

    Drag it over gameplay, a webcam, or empty space — the background is transparent.

Your overlay URL looks like this

https://bidlyy.com/overlay/<token>

The token is unique to your auction and only readable, never editable — it can't be used to place bids or change anything about your listing.

What you're adding

  • The overlay has a transparent background, so it sits on top of gameplay or video without a box around it.
  • No Twitch or Kick integration is required — it's a plain web page, so any browser source works.
  • OBS Browser Source is all that's needed. Streamlabs or any other browser-source compatible app can use the exact same URL.
