Frequently Asked Questions
Can I delete my bid?
No, donors cannot delete their own bids. If you made a bid in error or need it removed, please reach out to the silent auction organizer directly. Only the organization running the auction can remove a bid on your behalf.
Can I increase my bid after I’ve already placed one?
Yes, you can place a higher bid on an item as long as the auction is still open. You’ll find the item in your Bidding History or directly on the auction page.
Will I be notified if I’m outbid?
Yes, you'll receive an email and/or SMS notification (if enabled) when you’ve been outbid, so you have a chance to place a higher bid before the auction closes.
What happens if I win an item?
If you win an auction item, your linked payment method will be automatically charged after the auction ends. You'll receive an email with a receipt confirming your purchase.
