This was our first online auction and we had no idea whether it would be a success. We were pleased with how easy it was to share the link with our audience and how easy it was for them to use it. We will definitely use it again.

It was extremely easy to use from setting up the auction items to the registration. We didn't receive a single query about registering or bidding. The reports were also very helpful in managing our auction. We will definitely use it again.

We had some videos about our items that we would have liked to be able to embed in the descriptions but that wasn't possible. It would also have been nice to be able to label the photos to explain what they were.

Easy to use. Inexpensive auction platform.

Sending invoices to "Buy it Now" winners BEFORE your auction closes doesn't work. The platform WON'T send invoices until the overall auction ends. We SHOULD be able to send a "Buy it Now" winner an invoice BEFORE the overall auction closes.

Once we straighten out the problem of establishing the account and having Travel Pledge to verify my checking account, no problems. They need to make it easier to set up the account.

Easy to place bids. Easy to add or subtract items.

Very difficult to set up the account. I was originally told that the account was set up and I had starting the LIVE AUCTION only to find that my authorization and account set up had not been approved and was not set up. Had to get my daughter (I am terrible with computers) to straighten everything out. Took more than 8 hours and several phone calls to resolve this problem/

Excellent

I work for the Fellowship of Christian Athletes and used TravellPledge to put on a silent auction. First, this product being free for Non-Profits was huge, I was trying to raise money to send coaches and athletes to camp and this product made that possible. The software was so easy to use and had so many aids to help. They partner with some pretty impressive companies that donate for auctions so that you can use them as you try to raise money. Most of these I would have had no chance at procuring but TravelPledge made it easy to use these and helped in reaching my goals. Also there were some questions I had and their team answered so quickly and helped me make sure the experience was awesome.

I wish there was a way to customize it a little more, maybe just change the background color and make it more appealing visually.

This software is super user friendly while offering features that would cost additionally elsewhere. It streamlines the entire auction process

The ease of use, as well as the trip options. Not having a middle man involved for the trips and items Travel Pledge offers compared to other auction software saves time and stress!

After using this software twice now, I truly can't think of any cons

As a not for profit organization, we were trying to raise funds outside of our organization and offer products to the public for bid. WinningBidder.com did just that and a very affordable cost. Will recommend to other organizations and will continue to use.

Easy set-up and continuous monitoring of bidding process. Trustworthy Check- out & payment process for winning bidder.

nothing. All aspects worked as advertised.

Very positive; this was just the app we needed to fill a niche need, and I'm glad it'll be in our toolbox going forward. I could see it integrating with other fundraising efforts for our non-profit in the future.

It's very easy to set up and manage.The fee schedule is great.It ties into Stripe, which we use.

Don't have anything to say yet, as this is our first time using it. But I suspect we'll use it again.

Overall, a fantastic experience with WinningBidder who will now be one of our main platforms for fund raising.

We've worked in the charity auction space for almost six years across many platforms and TravelPledge is definitely among the top. Its easy to use, understand and process campaigns on. Among the more important benefits to non-profits is the low commission as we are allowed to raise nearly 15 % more of the funds our auctions garner.

The only room for improvement as far as I can tell is; It would be great to have more custom graphics on the auction page to make each campaign look unique and great. To be able to run auctions while simultaneously hosting live auctions withthe Travel Pledge packages.

Great! I highly recommend Travel Pledge for an easy fundraising option.

I LOVED that there was no upfront costs. The only costs were for Credit Card Processing fees. There were lots of options to choose for the auction. The program was easy to use, and customer service was readily available.

I was not notified via email of the activity. I had to log in to find out if there were any bids.

The process was easy and user friendly. Also, company was very communicative.

That the auction doesn’t automatically start from low to high price on the bidder side.

TravelPledge made it easy to provide great experiences that we don't have to track and follow up with. Once the user pays for the experience, it's all taken out of my hands and the customer must book their experience through TravelPledge. It gives them all the details they need including the timeframe they need to use it by. Also, the fact that it is transferable makes it very convenient. Things come up in life and this allows more flexibility and less risk for the customer.

It was easy to use and provided great experiential options for our silent auction.

After my event, I could not tell how much of the profit my organization will keep. I remember it saying something along the lines of 40% but now that the event is closed, I cannot find that info anywhere. Will only know how much we kept based on what's deposited in our account.

TravelPledge software is the most accessible auction platform I have used, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for help in running and managing your auction. I loved the "popcorn bidding" function at the end that helped to push live bidding, adding significant funds to the dollars we raised. I also loved the ease at which the winning bidders were billed and then sent the appropriate certificates without any involvement needed from me!

The biggest issue was many of the winning bidder's certificates ended up in the "junk mail" file. Nothing can be done on the TravelPledge side, but created a lot of follow-ups and "reissue" of certificates that were previously sent.

Enjoyable! Look forward to working with them for our next event.

Easy of use Excellent selection of packages Ability to upload donated items was super easy Online bidding Everything went super smoothly

Can't print bid sheet pdfs on Mac or Apple products.

Amazing. Support was awesome. Setting things up and closing down seemed super easy in comparison to some other sites we have used. Will definitely use again.

The help on this site was phenomenal. Could t have asked for better support for the very minor issues we encountered. Super easy to use and set up.

Sometimes would get an error that didn’t give me any information on what was going wrong, so that was frustrating.

I can't say enough about our dealings with TravelPledge. You won't be disappointed.

Don't have any negative things to say, other than you won't be disappointed.

Overall, It helped us solve the issue of not getting enough silent auction donations. We were looking for some big ticket items to draw attention and TravelPledge did that, and provided an auction platform all rolled into one.

This made creating a silent auction really easy. This was our first silent auction event, and while it didn't quite go as we had hoped, it was easy, intuitive and provided a lot of great items for guests to view and select from.

The closing time was disappointing as we had set a 9:40 time and it closed at 9:40. We had guests that wanted to submit some last minute bids and they were not able to.

Love my experience..

Easy to use and to navigate< I am totally happy with it.

There was nothing I didnt like about this product..

The convenience and Accessibility of displaying the items.

We did not experience any problems with the service.

Fundraising has been an issue since COVID hit us all. This made fundraising possible, easy and fun! Customer service was thorough and fast

Some glitches with multiple people receiving winning bids but everything else was great

The customer service was very responsive and the software was easy to use. I would like to thank TravelPledge for making our online auction very successful.

TravelPledge was very easy to use. When I had questions, their team messaged me right away via the online chat. They were very helpful and kind.

I wish our small non profit was not limited on the number of TravelPledge auction items to list with our own auction items. Many of TravelPledge items were purchased, which helped our non profit raise much needed money to fund our program.

We did well but lost money due to lack of reserve and had to manyally send / print tix

I like registry of people. Phone numbers and emails came in handy to deliver

No reserve value to set. No ability to purchase event tickets or raffle tickets

Quick to implement and learn. Easy to use.

Nothing that I did nor like. It was all great.

Extremely happy with the results of our first online Auction Fundraiser.

So easy to use and run your online auction event.

We did not have any issues with the process.

Super simple to set up and create online auctions

Could look a little prettier but works great

The flyer and keeping up with the bids was so easy

I wish it was easier to login and you could stay logged in
