WooCommerce Simple Auctions

The plugin is designed for WooCommerce stores that want to sell products through competitive bidding. It supports standard, reverse, and silent auctions, so sellers can choose a format that fits the items they offer. Auction settings include reserve prices, minimum bid increments, and start and end times.

Buyers can place proxy bids that rise automatically up to their stated maximum, while countdown timers show the time remaining in an auction. Sellers can create, edit, and monitor auctions in the dashboard, with bid activity and winner notifications available to help manage each listing through its close.

Features

• Proxy bidding: Buyers can set a maximum bid, and the system increases their bid automatically as needed, up to that amount.
• Auction countdowns: Countdown timers display the time remaining for an auction and update as the closing time approaches.
• Multiple auction formats: Choose from standard, reverse, and silent auctions to suit different products and selling approaches.

• Seller dashboard management: Create, edit, and monitor auctions from the dashboard, with tools to review bid activity and manage listings.
