How bidding works

Red Beach Silent Auction

1

Register once

Tap Register to bid, and enter your name, email, and phone number. You only need to do this once — after that your browser remembers you. You'll appear publicly as your first name and last initial, e.g. "Sam T.", so your full name is never shown to other guests.

2

Browse items

The home page lists every item up for auction with its current bid. Tap any item to see photos, a full description, who donated it, and its bid history.

3

Place a bid

On an item's page, enter an amount at or above the minimum shown (current bid + the item's increment) and tap Bid. If you're not registered yet, you'll be asked to register first and brought right back.

4

Watch the leaderboard

The live leaderboard (shown on screens at the venue) updates in real time and highlights items the moment someone places a new bid. Keep an eye on it — if you're outbid, jump back to that item to bid again.

5

Bidding closes

Each item closes when the auction organizers end bidding — usually announced on the night. Once closed, the highest bid on each item wins and no further bids are accepted.

6

Pay & collect

If you win an item, an organizer will follow up with you after the event to arrange payment and pickup.
