Checking in your bidders for your auction is a quick and easy way to confirm which of your participants have arrived, and provide those participants with the necessary information they'll need to participate.

 

Below, we've outlined the steps you'll need to take to check in those bidders once your event has begun.

 

Step 1: Open up the "Bidders" tab within your Auction page's Dashboard

Once your auction has begun, you'll want to navigate to your auction's dashboard, and click on "Bidders."

Step 2: Search for the name or email of the bidder you're looking to check in

Step 4: Confirm the bidder's credit card is on file, and confirm their bidder number

Once you've located (or added) your bidder, you should be able to confirm that they have added a credit card on file and their bidder number.

Doing so will not only help your participants bid more quickly and easily - it'll help make the checkout process much smoother once your auction has ended.
