What Silent Auction Pro is
Silent Auction Pro is a web-based event management service for fundraising auctions, supporting in-person and online events. Organizers can run online and mobile bidding, live and paper-based auctions, buy-it-now and fixed-price sales, and outbid notifications by text or email. The platform tracks donors and donations, creates event landing pages, and provides reports during and after events. Ticket options include admission, raffle, sponsorship, wine-pull, merchandise, and golf registration, with seating management. Organizers can schedule targeted emails and texts and review delivery and engagement reporting, including opens, bounces, and clicks. Giving Campaigns support one-time and recurring donations as well as text-to-give. Worldpay and CardConnect are listed as payment partners. Annual plans start with Bidsheet Plus at $449 a year, plus 2.0% of event proceeds, capped at $3,500 per event. There is no free plan or trial. Online bidding requires an integrated payment partner and is offered with Mobile Plus or Mobile Pro; integrated credit card solutions require Bidsheet Plus or higher.
