CharityAuctions Opiniones 

Karla provided great support and direction. Loved the new version of the software

Possum Valley Animal Sanctuary (Western Australia) recently ran an online auction through Charity Auctions Today and were genuinely impressed by how smooth and stress‑free the entire process was. As an entirely volunteer‑run animal sanctuary, we rely on tools that are easy to use, affordable, and efficient — and this platform delivered on all fronts.

The low fees were a huge help, and the built‑in AI tools made creating item descriptions incredibly quick and accurate. Both our team and our bidders found the interface intuitive and user‑friendly, which made participation simple for everyone.

The printable auction sheets with QR codes were another standout feature — they made our in‑person event setup effortless and helped drive more bids. The invoicing and billing system worked flawlessly, and we were amazed to receive 100% of payments within a day of the auction closing.

Overall, Charity Auctions Today made running our fundraiser easier than we ever expected. We’ll absolutely be using them again for future events.

This was our first time using Charity Auctions. The event was seamless and very successful for our organization. Reporting was easy and allowed us an accurate record of all participants and winners

Thank you Charity Auctions Today for a brilliant experience! The site is so easy to use and the team were so supportive during the process and also with publicity for the auction item which we were delighted to sell. Their amazing social media manager Kelly, created promotional reels about our charity which they shared across their social media platforms to give us more exposure and even followed up with more reels following the auction ending for which we are so grateful. Highly recommend! Many thanks to the Charity Auctions Today team!

We have used Charity Auctions for years and have found them to be very helpful in setting things up, and helping us to have a successful auction. The interface is easy to use, the fees are affordable, and the customer service is excellent.

Pros:
Could access different auction performance and metrics
Could use multiple category tags (great for auction items that could be searched under multiple categories)
Minimal changes to website from year-to-year made platform consistent and easy for us to use and pick-up where we left off from the previous year

Cons:
Bidding page user interface felt outdated (fonts and color scheme)
While an auction item image could be optimized for view in desktop mode, this became moot when switching over to mobile view
No designated space/page to communicate extra details to bidders other than embedding the text into the graphic of the banner we uploaded
Changes to payment on the bidder’s end was made on CharityAuctionsToday sometime between January 2024 and January 2025. We were not aware of this change, which caught us and our bidders by surprise. It would have been if the platform highlighted these subtle changes year to year for us to be aware of

Helpful, responsive, and easy to use. The platform made managing our auction simple and efficient.

We've been using this site for years, and appreciate the customization and ease of use. Even as a new user, there is great customer support and helpful insight along the way as you're building your auction site. Between automated 'outbid' notifications and stress free billing/payments, this continues to be our go-to platform!

We’ve been very happy using Charity Auctions and honestly find it to be one of the strongest platforms we’ve worked with. From our perspective, it feels polished, professional, and extremely user-friendly, which is important for both our team and our bidders.
Some of the things we especially love:
• The professional look and feel of the platform, including the ability to recognize and highlight our sponsors
• How easy it is for our staff to input, update, and manage auction items
• Smooth, worry-free billing. The automatic checkout at the end of the auction is a huge relief
• The bidder experience, especially the text notifications when someone is outbid, which really helps keep momentum going
• The slideshow/photo feature, which works nicely for showcasing items
Overall, it’s a platform we don’t have to “babysit,” which allows us to focus on fundraising and engagement instead of troubleshooting, that’s incredibly valuable to a small nonprofit like ours.

Timely assistance, ease of use

I have used this platform for over 5 years and it has exceeded my expectations every year. The support team is exceptional.

’m happy to give Charity Auctions a rating of 5 for our recent events. I would give you a 10 if I could!!!
I used the platform for both the UNO Golf Outing and the BSF Golf Outing, and in each case it was extremely easy to set up, simple to use, and made collecting payments quick and seamless. Whenever we had questions, your team responded promptly, which made the entire process even smoother. Overall, it was a great experience, and I plan on using Charity Auctions again next year.

We decided to try CharityAuctionsToday after repeated issues with another platform, and are THRILLED! Auction set-up was easy, with plenty of instructions and videos. The auction went well, with no problems for participants. Best of all, customer service has been awesome! Quick answers to questions, and even reaching out several times to make sure things were going well!

I am thrilled to share my experience with Charity Auctions Today, a platform that has added immense value to my fundraising efforts. Working with Tom and his team has been an absolute pleasure, their professionalism and dedication are unparalleled.

Charity Auctions Today has mastered the balance of providing an effective auction platform while maintaining a personalized approach. Their success managers were always at the ready, ensuring the smooth operation of my fundraising auction. They exhibited excellent foresight in spotting opportunities, guiding me to leverage them for our cause. Additionally, their readiness to answer all my queries regarding auction promotion was greatly appreciated, making the entire process stress-free and enjoyable.

What sets Charity Auctions Today apart is its risk-free approach to fundraising. They operate on a cut from the funds raised, a model that puts the success of their clients at the forefront. Moreover, a portion of this cut was covered by my bidders, which was an unexpected but welcome surprise.

The platform itself is user-friendly and efficient, with features such as real-time updates and automatic text alerts when outbid. This level of detail, coupled with their excellent customer service, made for an extremely positive experience.

In summary, my experience with Charity Auctions Today has been nothing short of rewarding. Their dedication to my success, their comprehensive and intuitive platform, and their risk-free approach make them an outstanding choice for any fundraising initiative. I look forward to my continued partnership with them, and I strongly recommend Charity Auctions Today to anyone in need of a reliable and supportive auction platform.

We have used CharityAuctionsToday for 3 years for our silent auction for our charity golf event. After using the service this year, we discovered an extra .7% charge taken from all of our items, in addition to the normal percentage they take. On researching this, we discovered that this .7% fee was listed in only one place and was not included on their pricing page. This is in addition to the normal percentage they take. Why the additional fee, and why not list it clearly on your pricing page? They also have added a fee for sending texts to golfers through the system, including several that were free in prior years. Sadly, we feel that we can no longer trust this vendor and will be using a different vendor in the future.
