Bidding Owl

I would highly recommend Bidding Owl as a great site for charity auction. It was a little intimidating at first since they changed their format, but it went very smoothly. The support from the Bidding Owl was great and we had everything set up in no time.

The new and improved BiddingOwl software – released this year 2024 – helped to make our 4th Annual Fundraiser very successful. Its clean design and easy onboarding for bidders to login were a plus. The auction functioned well on a phone for both managing the auction items and for placing bids. BiddingOwl support is top notch, providing quick, clear answers. Everything ran smoothly start to finish and their very reasonable fee makes it a great choice to raise money for your cause.

Our quilting group makes quilts for veterans. We donate our time, talent and all the materials to make full size quilts to honor those who have served our country. We decided to try auctioning one of our quilts to raise funds for our work.

Caroline and Jo'Ann were so easy to work with in helping set our auction up. Regardless of the outcome of the auction, working with these two super helpful ladies was everything customer service should be. A person always answers the phone and quickly solves the problem and makes sure the solution has worked before moving on.

Bidding Owl made running an auction very easy. We have a live event with two weeks of pre-bidding which raised over £700 at the pre-bidding stage. Very excited about what will happen this afternoon.
Great help, quick replies to emails with all the information I needed. I very much recommend using Bidding Owl!

I have used Biddingowl for four years. The first year I had no idea what I was doing and they patiently helped me through the whole process. The next year I had a glitch right before the auction went live, and they helped me fix it very quickly. This year, I feel like an old pro with only a couple of questions, but they are still very helpful. The site is clean, easy to use, and makes us look like a highly capable organization. I really appreciate all the help they have offered through the years.

We have used BiddingOwl for several years but were discouraged by some of its quirks. We decided to go with another site this year but that failed for many reasons. We decided to go back to BiddingOwl and, WOW!, what a surprise. The NEW BiddingOwl is as full of features as you would like. The site has been updated and is modern and efficient. In addition, the customer service team is incredibly responsive, usually replying to questions in minutes.

We are a nonprofit high school and use BiddingOwl once per year to host the online auction portion of our Spring Fundraising Gala. It's been a great free, convenient option, and it helps us keep more of the money we raise!

We've been using Bidding Owl for a few years now for our non profit fundraising event. There are clear instructions throughout their site and they are always available for a call to walk you through a problem. There fees are reasonable and they don't require any upfront payments so you can earn revenue from your event and then pay them their percentage. Win-win.

This is really an easy auction platform to use. We have used it twice and are getting ready to do our third. It's ended up saving tons of time versus trying to do it on Facebook and was the cheapest option. The customer service is great and it's easy to customize.

Its a great site to run an auction, Its very user friendly and the tech team is beyond helpful! They are extremely nice, friendly and always there to navigate through any technical questions! This is our 3rd time using Bidding Owl for our school auction without any hurdle!
