How Does a Bidder Know They are the Winning Bidder?

Bidders will receive an automatic winning text message after the auction closes if enabled under Software Settings > Auction Settings > Payment. This message can be edited as you wish, and can include the [p] shortcode to bring your bidders directly to the payment screen. Here are other ways your bidders can find out if they won: 

• Menu > My Items: In the bidding site, bidders can look at their "My Items" page

• Allow Guests to Checkout from Phone: This feature can be turned on under Software Settings > Auction Settings > Payment. When a bidder clicks the red Pay! button it will show them a list of all items they won and allow them to check out.

• If you have Mass Messaging: You can send a winning text or email to all bidders who have items to check out. We recommend using the "Silent and Live Winning Bidders" filter for sending verbiage related to "You're a Winner". If you are sending a message asking everyone to check out we recommend "Bidders who have not checked out". This is a great way to send out an additional message to winners after the automatic one goes out.
