Turn any product into a live auction with real-time bidding, proxy max bids, and bidder emails.
Auction Now turns any Shopify product into a timed auction on your store. Bidders place real-time bids in a custom widget, set max bids for proxy bidding, and follow items on a watchlist. Soft Close extends the end time when late bids arrive, so last-second sniping does not decide it. Winners get a payment deadline; if they do not pay, the runner-up is offered the item. Supports 46 currencies, combined shipping, and bulk creation for collectibles, antiques, art, cards, and charity sales.
