Frequently Asked Questions

Creating your first digital auction and have some questions? No worries, here are the most frequently asked questions people ask!
How many auctions can I create?

You can create unlimited auctions through the SupporterHub platform.

How many items can I auction?

You can auction as many items as you wish but we recommend a max of 100 items to keep bidders engaged and the platform loading quickly.

Can I close my auction at a certain time?

Yes, you can schedule to close your auction at a certain time. You can encourage excitement with our countdown timer that will show bidders how long until the auction finishes. 

Can I also accept donations through my auction page?

Yes, you can add the option of donations within your auction page. This means that people bidding on auction items can also donate to your campaign. 

How will my bidders know if they have been outbid?

You have the option of sending your bidders an SMS message notifying them that they have been outbid allowing them to place a new bid. 

Can I add a raffle to my auction?

Yes. We think this is a great idea to combine a raffle with your auction as it keeps it interesting and engaging for supporters who are not interested in bidding. 

What happens if the winner does not pay for their auction item?

All bidders are tracked in our system so if the highest bidder does not pay for the auction item, we advise that you contact the second highest bidder to offer them the prize. 

Are bidders required to enter their credit card details before bidding?

No, we do not ask for credit card details when a person places a bid. From our experience, this can cause a lot of hassle for you and your team if that person needs to retract their bid for whatever reason. The person who places the highest bid will receive an email with details of how to pay and submit their details through the platform.  If they do not respond to your email, you can re-notify them from the platform.

Can I display the current highest bidders for each item live online?

Yes, this is an optional feature. You have the ability to showcase highest bidders for each auction item through a leaderboard on your auction dashboard.
