Spotlight enables agents to differentiate their high-quality listings on PropertyGuru, which enhances the experience of property seekers, in turn delivering better value to agents like you.

Now, you are able to Spotlight your listing for multiple weeks.

You will be given an option to choose ‘Auto-Spotlight’ when you go through the Spotlight booking flow.

Refer to “How to Spotlight a listing?” for step-by-step guide.

The amount of Ad Credits needed to Auto-Spotlight a listings (Residential & Commercial Listing) will be calculated by Dynamic Pricing which takes into account competition and listing supply by property type, location and project.

This means that the Ad Credits required changes with market conditions, to deliver maximum value for each listing.

Learn more on Dynamic Pricing.

If you select the ‘Auto-Spotlight’ option, the checkbox will be ticked and ‘Auto-Spotlight’ for your chosen listing will be turned on.

Your listing will be auto re-Spotlighted and Ad Credits will be deducted 7 Days (168 hours) after your listing's first Spotlight.

What if I do not have enough Ad Credits during my 'Auto-Spotlight' period?

'Auto-Spotlight' will pause if you do not have enough Ad Credits for the listing to be re-Spotlighted.
