Take Your Charity Auction to the Next Level
Add excitement to your charity event and raise more money with a fully-staffed, interactive auction system from iBidMobile.net. Our professional registration team provides each guest with a unique bidder number upon arrival. Now they’re ready to start bidding.
iPad Bidding
At the event, bids are made via wireless touchscreen iPads. These devices can be located anywhere at your event. Our staff brings the iPads to interested guests and helps them with their bids. During the meal service, the iPads are brought to each table to encourage continued bidding without having to return to the auction area. Electronic winner boards broadcast the top bids to any screen, creating a buzz and stoking competitive bids.
Mobile Phone Bidding
Accept bids via text message from any wireless phone. It is a great way to open your auction to a wider audience because bidders can participate from anywhere. If a higher bid is made, an outbid notice is sent immediately to encourage continued bidding.
Twitter Feeds
Our system tracks the top bids of each item and can post the action live to Twitter. Bidders can monitor the action on Twitter and bid by mobile phone. It’s a great way to have a single silent auction that simultaneously spans multiple locations. |

Checkout
At the close of your event, winners stop by the checkout desk to verify and pay for their purchases. Checks and credit cards are accepted with all funds deposited directly into your organization’s bank account. Our staff issues pickup checks for each lot so your staff and volunteers can easily distribute merchandise and certificates to the winners.
Post-Event Follow Up
After your event, we send invoices and reminders to auction winners. We supply shipping information to your auction coordinator as soon as donors pay for their items. We send daily financial reports to your organization, as well as tax receipts and acknowledgment letters to every donor.
No Hassle Auctions
Auctions are one of the most popular ways to raise extra funds at a benefit gala. But they require a tremendous amount of administrative work, which often diverts resources away from other fundraising. Let our team of professionals take on the tedious administrative work, freeing your staff and volunteers to focus on creativity and soliciting great auction item donations.
Comprehensive Auction Development
Need more help? Our professional auction planners can solicit auction items, supervise the décor, warehouse the merchandise, write and design the auction catalog, and handle all of the post-event shipping.
