A website for charity and benefit auction organizers that runs the gala page and the mobile bidding page from one build

A charity auction website earns its keep in the weeks before the event, when a sponsor or donor lands on the page and needs to see the cause, the date, the packages up for bid and a way to give even if they cannot attend.

What usually goes wrong for charity and benefit auction organizers

  • The event page is a single flyer PDF with no way to preview auction packages before the night.
  • Sponsors are listed as a wall of logos with no page explaining what each sponsorship level actually includes.
  • There is no dedicated page for guests who cannot attend but still want to bid or give.
  • Last year's results and the amount raised are not on the site anywhere, so the organization cannot point new sponsors to a track record.

Questions from charity and benefit auction organizers

Do you run the mobile bidding during the event?

No, mobile bidding and payment processing run through your event or fundraising platform. We build the website that presents the packages, sponsors and giving options around it, and link or embed that platform where it belongs.

Can the site change for each annual event?

Yes. Each year's theme, packages and sponsors are a normal update to the site and count toward your included revisions, so the site does not need rebuilding for every gala.

Can people give without attending?

A dedicated remote giving and bidding page is one of the standard pages, so someone who cannot make the event still has a clear way to take part.

Can we show last year's results?

Yes, a past events archive showing the cause, the date and the amount raised is a standard page, which also helps new sponsors see the event has a history.
