    We used it for mobile bidding at our annual fundraiser. They are also a part of the check-in process. They made both the auction and the check-in process so much easier at the event. We did not use it for donations last year but we absolutely will this year. I personally don't see where it could apply to our company outside of our event, but we will continue to use them for the gala for sure!!

    AuctionMethod Screenshots

    Screenshot of the dashboard where admins track auction performance at a glance, uncovering high bids, max potential, % bids filled, bidder counts, and invoice status. Spotting a closed auction with unpaid invoices or a live event at 0% bids lets operators act before revenue slips.Screenshot of where auctioneers fine-tune every aspect of hybrid simulcast behavior — proxy bids, outbid notices, on-the-fly clerking, sticky increments, and open online bids — so in-room and online bidders get a seamless, controlled experience without mid-auction surprises.Screenshot of the dashboard where admins build and edit the branded site's main and footer navigation without touching code — adding menu items, updating URLs, and repointing links like Login, Register, or My Account in seconds. Full control over the white-labeled site experience stays in one panel.Screenshot of where bidders browse active lots with real-time current bids, bid counts, minimum bids, and time remaining — then place a quick bid or enter a max bid without leaving the catalog. The frictionless Log In / Register prompt keeps new bidders moving toward conversion.Screenshot of where bidders spot live and closing auctions at a glance — real-time countdown timers, bidding status badges, and location details let them jump into active lots before time runs out, from any mobile device.Screenshot of where bidders can browse live auctions — estate liquidations, classic cars, collectibles — with lot counts, dates, and locations visible at a glance. Each listing links directly to bidding, so buyers move from discovery to competing bids in one click.
