Members bid from their phone, a big screen shows the leaders in real time, and the payments handle themselves. Set up in an afternoon — no auctioneer, no clipboards, no chasing cash.
A silent auction with no auctioneer: donated items go up for bid over a set window, members bid from their phones, and a big screen shows the leaders. You run it from the dashboard — bidding, outbid alerts, winner emails and payments are all automatic.
Build the auction as a draft, then load items fast — Quick Add from your phone (share a QR link so volunteers add donations for you), or bulk-import a CSV. Up to five photos per item, with a reserve and a minimum bid increment.
Anyone can browse every item and the current bid without logging in; they sign in only to bid. Bid manually with quick bid chips, or set a proxy "set and forget" maximum. Outbid push notifications deep-link straight back to the item, so the competition stays hot right to the close.
Members set the most they'll pay and the app bids for them, only as high as needed to stay in front. Win, and they pay just what it took — never their maximum, which stays private from everyone else.
Put the leaderboard on the clubroom TV: item tiles update in real time with the leading bid, a burst of confetti on each new bid, a countdown and the total raised — the buzz that lifts the whole room.
Secure card payments via Stripe, charged automatically at close or paid at checkout — a win drops straight into the member's cart for a smooth check-out, with an instant winner receipt emailed through. Winners pay exactly their winning bid — the club absorbs card fees under Australian rules. Record cash manually, process refunds and chase anything outstanding.
Winner and pickup lists, treasurer-ready financials (sale price, fees, net to the club), an items-below-reserve list for next year's pricing, and full auction performance — all exportable to PDF, Excel or CSV.
No. You run the auction from the admin dashboard and members bid in the app — bidding, outbid notifications and winner emails are all automatic. You can adjust a bid if there's a genuine error, but you never take bids by hand.
A member sets the most they're willing to pay and the app bids for them — only in the smallest increments needed to stay in front, never above their maximum. If they win, they pay just what it took to win, not their max, and their maximum stays private.
By card through Stripe — charged automatically when the auction closes if they've set up payment, or paid at checkout. Winners pay exactly their winning bid; under Australian rules the club absorbs card fees rather than adding them on top. Cash payments can be recorded manually.
It's marked Passed — no winner and no charge. An Items Below Reserve report lists every near-miss and the gap, so you can follow up with the top bidder or reprice next year.
