# Calling the contracts directly The SmartPiggies smart contracts are public and permissionless. Although we suggest interacting with the SmartPiggies smart contract through the application, anyone can access all the functionality offered on the application, through direct interaction with the SmartPiggies smart contract. All functions available for creating, managing, auctioning, settling, and withdrawing funds are available through direct function calls on the SmartPiggies smart contract deployed to the Arbitrum mainnet. For example, and this is not recommended, however, anyone can load up the contracts in remix and do anything that the SmartPiggies application offers. If anyone is interested in direct interaction or hosting alternative user interfaces, please visit the SmartPiggies [discord](https://discord.gg/hQe39uG) and let us know what you are interested in. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
