What is Timed Auction Software?
Timed auction software enables you to conduct fully online auctions without the need for an auctioneer.
Bidders can conveniently view and place bids directly on your own branded website, which showcases detailed auction lot descriptions, images, videos, and PDFs.
The key advantage of timed online auction software is its automation, operating on a “set-and-forget” basis. Once the auction is set up, it runs independently, allowing you to dedicate more time to auction marketing. Furthermore, this software empowers you to expand your auction business beyond the limitations of physical locations like rooms, warehouses, or specific regions.
Timed auctions come with numerous features included in your Webtron auction software package. These include:
- Lot Bid Extension: Prevents bid sniping by extending the auction time for active lots.
- Lot Staggering: Spreads the closing times of lots to maximize final bid prices.
- Outbid Email Alerts: Notifies bidders when they have been outbid, encouraging further participation.

FAQs
Webtron Timed Auction Software is an advanced online platform that enables auctioneers to run fully automated auctions across a defined time frame. Each lot features its own countdown clock, giving bidders the ability to place offers anytime before closing. With options such as staggered end times, auctioneers can pace the closure of lots to avoid buyer congestion, ensuring a fairer and more engaging experience.
Auctioneers set starting prices, increments, and durations for each lot, and bidders can place their offers securely through their online accounts. Automatic notifications are sent if a bidder is outbid, encouraging them to rejoin the auction. The system continues until the scheduled closing time, with staggered endings ensuring that not all lots close simultaneously. This allows bidders to focus on multiple items without overlap and helps auctioneers maintain smoother auction flow.
Webtron timed auctions deliver increased reach by enabling buyers to participate from anywhere, creating more competition and often higher returns. Efficiency is a key benefit, as the process automates much of the administration, reducing costs and workload. Flexible tools like custom auction durations and staggered lot closures give auctioneers complete control, while integrated security and transparency build bidder confidence. Reporting and analytics are also included, making it simple to track results and measure performance.
Registered bidders can browse catalogues with detailed photos, videos, and descriptions before placing bids manually or using maximum bid settings that automatically increase their offer up to a chosen limit. The platform delivers real-time updates to keep participants engaged. Features such as auto-extend ensure fairness by adding extra time if a last-minute bid is made, while staggered closing ensures a balanced pace across larger auctions. Together, these tools provide a smooth, competitive, and transparent timed auction experience.
