Bidding Fever automates the busywork so you can focus on what matters — finding great inventory and growing your business.
Join Canadian auction houses already making the switch
The problems every auction house deals with — until now.
Legacy platforms require manual handling fee entries, one-by-one invoice creation, and 22-page PDF reports. A 200-lot auction means 3-5 hours of settlement work.
Other platforms force your bidders to register, enter payment details, and accept terms for every single auction. Each step loses you bidders.
Monthly subscriptions, per-bid fees, per-lot charges, premium placement fees. Your real cost is $500+ USD/month before you sell a single item.
Three steps. Zero headaches.
Create your auction, upload lots (or bulk import from CSV), set your terms. Our AI assistant helps with descriptions and translations.
Our real-time heat system shows bidders which lots are hot. Cool → Warm → Fever → Meltdown. Buyers see the competition and bid higher.
Handling fees calculated automatically. Invoices generated in batch. Buyers get self-service payment portals. You review a dashboard, not a spreadsheet.
Built for Canadian auctioneers, by people who understand the business.
5-tier visual heat system shows real-time bidding intensity. Buyers see competition, driving higher engagement and hammer prices.
Handling fees, buyer premiums, and tax calculations happen automatically. Batch invoices generated in one click. No more manual data entry.
Buyers register once for the platform. On their first bid per auction, a single confirmation modal captures T&C acceptance, shipping preference, and payment — then they're in.
Built-in AI chat for buyers (lot questions, bidding help) and a seller copilot for auction management, description writing, and translation.
Buyers see the full cost before bidding — bid + premium + taxes + shipping estimate. No surprises means fewer disputes and faster payment.
Full French and English support. Bill 96 compliant. AI-assisted translation for your lot descriptions. Reach every Canadian buyer.
Live dashboard showing GMV, sell-through rates, bidder insights, category performance. Replace PDF reports with actionable data.
Winners see what they owe, pay online, track fulfillment status. Fewer support emails, faster payment collection.
Max bid system with automatic increment. Soft-close extensions prevent last-second sniping. Fair for buyers, better prices for sellers.
Built-in dispute system with timestamped audit trails. Resolve issues on-platform instead of over email.
Every other platform gives you software. Bidding Fever gives you a team.
Upload photos. Get a professional title, description, condition notes, and category — in both English and French. One click. What used to take 10 minutes per lot now takes 10 seconds.
Not sure what to set as a reserve? AI analyzes your item, checks comparable sales, and suggests the sweet spot — high enough to protect you, low enough to attract bidders.
When your auction ends, AI generates a full performance report. What sold, what didn't, why, and exactly what to do differently next time. Graded A through D with no sugarcoating.
Managing consignors? AI generates professional settlement reports with cover letters, lot breakdowns, and net payout calculations. Download as PDF or email directly.
50 lots to catalogue? Upload photos for all of them, hit one button, and AI writes every description. Review, tweak, accept. An estate sale catalogued in minutes, not days.
Bill 96 compliant in one click. Write in English, AI translates to natural Québécois French. Or vice versa. Every listing, every auction, fully bilingual without hiring a translator.
It's like having 3 extra employees for $149/month.
AI writes your descriptions, translates your listings, prices your reserves, generates your reports, and answers your buyers' questions at 2am. You focus on what you do best — running auctions.
