For Causes That Count Every Dollar
Charities, schools, clubs and gala committees use Auctify to run silent auctions and benefit sales under their own name.
Features
Every Dollar to the Cause
Zero commission and no listing fees. A 15% platform cut on a $20,000 appeal is $3,000 that never reaches the people it was raised for.
Your Cause, Your Brand
Your name, your logo, your colours, your domain. Supporters bid on your site, not on a marketplace carrying somebody else's adverts.
Silent Auctions That Run for Days
Open bidding a week before the gala and close during the event. Soft close stops last-second sniping from souring the room.
Secure Payments
Stripe and PayPal built in. Winners pay online straight after the auction closes, so your volunteers are not chasing payments for weeks.
Donors Can List Directly
Invite local businesses to add their own donated lots with the multi-seller feature, instead of collecting details by email.
Offers on Unsold Lots
An item that found no bidder on the night can still raise money: supporters may offer a price for 14 days after the close, and the organiser accepts, declines or counters once. Off until switched on.

Built for supporters.
Readable by AI.
People look for causes to support in more places than your mailing list — increasingly by asking ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity.
Every live lot on your Auctify site is published as Schema.org data — title, photo, current price, currency, whether bidding is still open and when it closes — that search engines and AI assistants can read and cite.

Charity Auction FAQ
How much of what we raise do we keep?
All of it. Zero commission and no listing fees — you pay a flat monthly subscription and nothing is deducted from what you raise. Stripe and PayPal still charge their own transaction fee.
Can we run a silent auction alongside a live event?
Yes. Open bidding days before the event so supporters who cannot attend take part, then close the lots during the evening; soft close extends a lot briefly on a late bid.
Can we use our own charity branding and domain?
Yes. Every Auctify site is fully white-label: your domain, logo, colours and CSS, so supporters see your cause throughout.
How do winning bidders pay?
Stripe and PayPal are built in. Winners pay online as soon as the auction closes and the funds go directly to your account.
Do supporters need an app to bid from their phones?
No. Browsing, bidding and your admin all work in the phone's browser, nothing to install. Supporters register with an email address and bid from wherever they are.
Can we keep the auction to invited supporters only?
Yes. Switch the site to private mode and the lots stay hidden until a visitor enters your access code. Open it to everyone later if you want a wider reach.
Do bidders hear when they are outbid?
Yes. An outbid email goes out at once, in that bidder's own language, with a link back to the lot; auction-won emails follow the close. Soft close keeps a lot open a little longer when a bid lands in the final moments.
Your lots on AuctionsNearMe
Once your site is live, each running lot is also published on AuctionsNearMe.com, the auction discovery site run by the company behind Auctify.
Each lot gets its own page with its photo and a live countdown, a pin on the map and structured data that search engines and AI assistants can read. Included in every plan, with nothing to set up.
What AuctionsNearMe publishes for each lot
Want to promote the sale yourself? Your dashboard opens a ready-made kit: a widget for your own website, images for Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp, a poster with scan-to-bid QR cards and an email banner, all made from your lots in your site’s language. Try the promotion kit on AuctionAmigo
