How it works

From setup to settled — without the friction

01

Set up your auction

Create timed, live, or hybrid auctions in minutes. Add items with AI-assisted descriptions and smart price suggestions.

02

Bidders bid effortlessly

One-click bidding, proxy auto-bid, real-time updates and clear winning/outbid states keep momentum high.

03

Winners pay automatically

Saved cards charge at close. Tax-deductible receipts and donation add-ons go out instantly.

Platform

A high-performance fundraising engine

Every feature is designed to drive urgency, competition, and conversion — so your mission goes further.

Real-time bidding

Live bid feeds, countdowns, anti-snipe extensions, and clear winning states — without a single refresh.

AI item assistant

Generate item descriptions, suggest starting prices and increments, and surface high-performing items.

Trust & fraud protection

Verified bidders, anomaly detection, rate limiting, and an admin flagging queue keep auctions clean.

Live analytics

Track revenue, bids, engagement, and top items in real time — extend close times with one click.

Every auction format

Timed, live (auctioneer-paced), hybrid, silent, buy-it-now, reserve, and proxy auto-bid.

Donation add-ons

Let bidders give a little extra at bid time and at receipt — every dollar counts toward the cause.
