Robust architecture that adapts to your needs
Our auction software product isn’t a fixed standalone solution, but rather a range of Cloud-based services that can be deployed depending on your needs.
We offer an enterprise solution that supports your full auction process. From lot consignment up to invoicing. We can take care of the whole 9 yards. As a white label software provider, we can offer the following options for the frontend solution:
• A template website hosted by us and partially or fully customized to match your brand.
• Our software as an addition to your current website.
• A full integration with your own website.
All auction and bidding types
Partner with the only supplier offering a total solution covering all auction and bidding types. Regular auctions, sealed bidding auctions, Dutch auctions and absentee auctions – Auction-Experts has got you covered.
Dashboard drives growth in bids and revenues
Software for all auction types. Lots are shown on the dashboard and bidders can take part by just logging in, clicking on a lot and bidding. Place, confirm and win. The result: more bids on more lots to maximise your returns.
Customisation to meet your needs
We customize your website, invoices, emails, language choices, lot types, categories, brand and market. So your auction website is distinctively yours with your trademark look and feel.
Mobile App gets your auction moving
Our Mobile App gives your customers maximum convenience to bid anywhere and anytime. It puts your auction on the move, so you get more bids and higher returns.
Authentication service
Our authentication system is responsible for authenticating bidders but also the users of
the back-office application. The authentication service allows single sign on. Meaning that with 1 username + password you can login into all of our apps and websites.
Mobile App
We offer also a white label native mobile app for both Android and iPhone. The mobile
app provides all functionality offered in the website.
Our Enterprise Solution transforms your business processes
You can easily import and export data at every stage. And use our API for full integration with your systems or external platforms.
Azure for optimum performance and continuity

Supporting all payment options
We offer a full range of payment options to ensure you never miss a bid. You can work with all payment providers and offer all the settings you need: currencies, commissions, extra costs and languages.
Website customization
You don’t have to think about hosting your website. We will design content paged with
active upcoming and closed auctions together with the hot and latest bids. We have different types of bidding standard available in our software:
Phone bids
Absentee bids
Offers (below limit)
Intake app
The Intake app is our backend, the management system used by the auctioneer.
It guides you through the entire intake process from first contact with consigners, enriching the lot data, until the printing of the labels and the contracts. In addition, manage the invoicing for buyers and consigners, manage users and auctions and view relevant statistics.
Catalogue
When all lots have been completed, we can start building the catalogue. You decide on
the order of the categories, images and meta data per lot, and the general order of the
lots. Once this is done, the XML can be exported to a document design tool to finalize the printed catalogue. Easy peasy
Pre-Bid
The catalogue will be published online on your website and sent to used platforms. Now bidders can start bidding on the lots. We have different types of bidding standard available in our software:
Phone bids
Absentee bids
Offers (below limit)
Registration and approval for live auctions.
Live auction
In this module you can start and control the live auction. The live auction is supported with a near real-time video stream. The live auction module also notifies both the auctioneer and bidders about delays in the preset schedule. Our bidding engine allows remote bidders to bid real-time.
Real-time Bidding engine
Our real-time bidding engine makes it possible to bid from anywhere. Every authenticated bidder can place a bid from the auction website, mobile app or any external website.
The bidding engine is also responsible for updating the bids real-time on any website or
app at the same time.
Sealed bidding
The sealed bidding auction does not give feedback to the bidder whether he or she is the
highest bidder. Only when the auction has finished the winners will be notified with their
winning bid.
After sale
After the live auction, you can easily shift the unsold lots to the after sale. In the after sale bidders can buy the lot according the limit price. We can also allow bidders to make an offer. If required, it’s also possible to move lots to new auctions, and of course the lots can also be returned to the consigners.
Private auction
If the auction is invite only or bidders should be approved first, you can set the auction to be private. Groups of bidders can be granted access to bidding or bidders can individually ask to join the ongoing auction.
Invoicing
For the invoicing we have a comprehensive module that creates invoices for the buyers,
including commissions, transport and other costs. The system is fully automated
including sending mails, reminders, and a dashboard for the required overview. We
support the possibility to connect with several payment platforms. But we got more to make your process even less time consuming and more fun.
REST API
With our API you can connect any external system to the auction platform. The API is in
general used for exporting invoices or bid results to financial systems or to import lots from your own back-office.
Mobile App gets your auction moving
Our Mobile App gives your customers maximum convenience to bid anywhere and anytime. It puts your auction on the move, so you get more bids and higher returns.
