Using the **Whitelists** panel allows you to restrict which wallet addresses can buy and sell NFTs at your Auction House.&#x20;

This is a useful feature which enables you to do things like run token-gated auctions, restrict selling to team members and/or allows your community to have an exclusive secondary Marketplace where only whitelisted holders can trade.&#x20;

You can add individual addresses or you can upload a JSON file if you want to add multiple addresses in one go.&#x20;

Your JSON file should look like this:

```
[
  {
    "label": "example label",
    "address": "0x000...000"
  },
  {
    "address": "0xa0b...d1e"
  }
]
```

You also have the option to add a 'Label' to the address - to help you organise your whitelisted users.&#x20;

Once you have added an address or multiple addresses, you will see them displayed with the ability to remove them at any time.&#x20;
