Timed Auctions
Let Your Website Do the Work For You
Timed online auctions (or ‘eBay style’ auctions) allow you to simply list your products and let your website do the work. They’re the perfect way to clear surplus stock with minimum time and fuss.
You can run as many timed auctions as you want at a time – we recommend staggering closing times to maximise bidding activity.
Webtron provides auctioneers with a feature-rich timed online auction solution including:
- Custom integration: State-of-the-art software that integrates seamlessly with your existing website and brand (not ours!)

- Set and forget: Once your timed auctions are set up, they run automatically over a set period of time. This means you can focus on marketing the auction rather than physically running it.
