A better end to every auction

Most auction tools stop when the hammer falls. This one doesn’t.

When a lot closes in most auction software, that’s it. The listing goes dark and the thing that would have convinced your next visitor to bid disappears with it.

THE LOT STAYS LIVE

Here, the close is the best part. Every ended action stays published and browsable. Its photos stay exactly where they were. The final price, the bid count and the real end date all remain visible. A View Auction button opens the full listing with every detail intact. And a congratulations banner announces the winner by name.

A QUIET CLOSE WHEN IT DOESN’T SELL

If a item doesn’t sell, it shows a quiet grey “Not sold”. No fake fanfare.

Not sold

Why that matters commercially: a prospective bidder who can browse your sold archive, see what things actually went for, and read the name of the person who won, is a prospective bidder who believes the room is real. That belief is what turns a browser into a bidder. Your auction history becomes a sales asset instead of a graveyard.

What’s in the suite

Everything below is included.

This isn’t a base product with a long list of separate purchases. It’s one suite.

INCLUDED MODULE 01

Auction engine

Live bidding with a self-updating countdown and bid list, automatic bid increments, an optional Buy Now price for instant purchase, and an optional hidden reserve so a lot never sells below your floor.

INCLUDED MODULE 02

Getting paid

Four payment routes: PayPal, bank transfer, cheque or cash, with automatic winner emails carrying the payment details and a link to the item.

INCLUDED MODULE 03

Scheduling and control

Set a future start date and the lot appears by itself when it opens, so you can run launch-day events without touching anything. Edit, duplicate and relist, or close a lot early at any time.

INCLUDED MODULE 04

Members and sellers

Members submit their own lots through a clean front-end form, with an admin approval queue and a trusted-seller list to skip it. Sellers get paid directly and keep their own stats and sales archive. Bidders get a My Bids page and progress badges.

INCLUDED MODULE 05

Bidding intelligence

Hidden maximum auto-bids, so you set your ceiling once and the system bids privately for you, only as much as needed. Anti-sniping, so a late bid extends the auction instead of stealing it. Watchlists with automatic pre-end reminder emails, and live activity so the room feels alive.

INCLUDED MODULE 06

Email and automation

Branded winner, outbid and ending-soon emails, reliable scheduled delivery, and a full email log with one-click resend.

INCLUDED MODULE 07

Insight

Analytics dashboard covering bids, sellers and revenue, reputation and follow-up tracking, a permanent sales archive, and one-click CSV export.

Questions people ask before they buy

Straight answers, before you decide.

Do you take a cut of my sales?

No. Your payment processor’s fees are the only fees you’ll ever pay.

Is this a subscription?

No. One-time purchase. Renew support and updates annually if you want them.

Do I need a developer?

No. If you can install a WordPress plugin, you can run this.

Does it work with my theme? Do I need WooCommerce?

It works with any WordPress theme and does not depend on WooCommerce.

What happens to an auction when it ends?

It stays published, with photos, final price, bid count, real end date, a View Auction button and a banner naming the winner. Only bidding closes.

Can members sell on my site?

Yes. They submit through a front-end form and you approve before anything goes public.

Do I have to show bidders’ names publicly?

Winners are shown by their real first and last name by default, which makes the room feel like a community. Other formats can be arranged.

How many auctions can I run?

Unlimited. There’s no cap on lots, bidders or sales.

What if it doesn’t work for me?

Let me know so I can help you get it working. It has been proven to work, so there is no reason why it wont work for you.
