This will help the event management of your auction or online fundraising event. It will also improve your bidding experience and auction experience for your guests.

HOW DOES MOBILE
BIDDING WORK?

Mobile fundraising software is extremely easy to use, that’s why it’s so brilliant. Mobile bidding technology and mobile bidding apps enhance your events and online auctions, providing instant guest engagement for outbid notifications, messaging, and invoicing.

All you need to do is:

  1. Supply the guests at your event with the link to the mobile fundraising software – no app download is required!
  2. From there, they can scroll through all the auction items on offer
  3. When guests like an item, they simply click on it and click bid. It is up to them how much they bid above the minimum. They will need to enter the amount and submit their bid.
  4. Guests will then reach a login/sign-up page
  5. As soon as their details are captured, their bid will be accepted.
  6. They can then track their bids and be notified of when they have been outbid. These notifications will come via SMS with a link direct to the item’s page for them to bid again.

Simple, quick, and easy.

MOBILE BIDDING
FEATURES

Mobile fundraising software will make your life easier no matter what type of auction event you are running. The most popular modes of mobile bidding software are:

  • Standard bidding – the classic scenario of an auction where the bidder can bid as many times as they like. If they wish, they can remain anonymous and stay up to date in the ‘My Bids’ section.
  • Max bidding – as if mobile bidding wasn’t easy enough, adding max bidding onto your mobile bidding platform will allow users to set a maximum bid with an automated process that places a new bid each time theirs is outbid, up to their maximum bid, of course.
  • Sealed bidding – mobile phone or cell phone bidding provides anonymity in a room, but sealed bidding truly gives an anonymous experience. The auction item will display how many bids have been placed, but no idea as to the maximum bid or who placed it.

The following features come as standard with whichever mode of bidding you choose, meaning your guests will always get the best mobile bidding platform experience:
