Live Auctions & Bidding

Run online auctions on your site, from a single lot to a full charity or collectors' sale. Bidders see the price and a countdown to the second update live, and they bid as guests with their name and email: no account or sign-up needed. A one-time email check stops fake bids. When time runs out, the highest bidder wins and gets an email with a link to pay at your own checkout, with your shipping rates and payment methods. A late bid moves the end by a few minutes (soft close), so nobody wins by sniping in the last second. You can also run silent auctions with sealed bids. From the dashboard you create auctions with photos, a starting bid and an end time, follow every bid, remove a bid or block a bidder, and see who won and whether they paid. Bidders are saved as contacts with an "Auction bidder" label. Pro adds unlimited auctions (fair use), a hidden reserve price, Buy now, max bids (the app bids for a bidder up to their limit), scheduled starts, offers to the next bidder when a winner doesn't pay, members-only bidding and bid exports. The bidder page and emails come in 12 languages.
