Can I start for free?

Yes. The Nothing Out of Pocket plan lets you build your auction with no upfront cost. You pay a 5% success fee only if you raise money.

Can I pass the fee to bidders?

Yes. Nothing Out of Pocket and Prepay and Save offer bidder pass-through options. Prepay and Save can lower the fee passed to bidders to 0%.

What if my items do not sell?

Unsold items remain in your account for use at a future event. You do not pay a success fee on items that do not sell.

Which option is best for my event?

Create a Free Account first. When you are ready, choose Nothing Out of Pocket if you want no upfront cost, or Prepay and Save for a lower success fee and Message Blast. Every fundraising module is included on every plan. Success fees are on this page.

How much do Fundraising Modules cost?

They are included. Online Auction, tickets, paddle raise, raffles, sponsor logos, leaderboards, donation buttons, attendee tools, live event kiosk, and golf outing management are included on every plan at no extra module charge. Message Blast is only included with Prepay and Save.

Can I download all my bidder data?

What is the success fee?

On the Nothing Out of Pocket plan it is 5% of funds raised. Prepay and Save drops that to 3%. Fundraising modules are included on every plan. There is no separate module fee. You can also pass the fee to bidders so your organization pays $0.

Can you mail me a check?

How do I pay the success fee and receive my funds?

When your auction closes, we subtract the success fee and send you the rest. If bidders cover the fee, you keep the full total.

Can we collect cash or checks offline for items?

Yes. You can mark items as paid offline. Those sales still count in your reports.
